Letterpress

Next week I'm going on a one day letterpress course and I'm really, really looking forward to. To get some inspiration I've "collected" a few sayings but I'd quite like to come up with something of my own and maybe I need a bit more than just a saying?? These are a good start though.

I keep finding more and have put them on my Pinterest board but time is running out for me to think up something original.

I also really like old farm sale posters so perhaps I can try and do something based on something like this.

The possibilities are endless .... how on earth will I decide what to do?
