Founded in 2018 on a solo road trip across the country, Odette Press is a small batch stationery studio by artist, writer, and teacher Kelly Odette Laughlin Each journal and card is made with care and intention, crafted in reverence of nature, and in awe of the creative process. We believe in developing contemplative, reflective practices to connect to self, each other, and the natural world, through writing, drawing, and reflecting together and on paper. Located in Baltimore, Maryland on Piscataway Land, each Odette Press paper good is made using timeless techniques and earth-friendly, local materials whenever possible. Each marbled journal and card is crafted by hand with care, and each creative classes experience is an invitation: to pause, breathe, and notice the landscape within you and around you, to create, express, reflect, connect, and of course, to practice. We look forward to working with you! www.odettepress.us

OUR STORY hi! i’m kelly, artist/writer and creator of odette press. born in the summer of 2018 while driving around solo on the road, ODETTE PRESS is a small batch stationery and creative studio centered around the intention and idea that creativity and contemplation are two vital, needed forces in life that help us to unlock awareness, and that a connection with nature, our each other, and ourselves contributes to a necessary sense of aliveness, wonder, and being well. through my own practices of writing and creativity, i’ve experienced a wellspring of self-discovery -something i stitch into all that we do here at ODETTE PRESS. ODETTE PRESS is named after my grandmother, odette, who passed away in 2019. Odette was a strong and fierce woman, whose love of travel, family, generosity of spirit, sewing, creativity, care and expansion for all is carefully woven into the fabric of all that we do here at ODETTE PRESS. ODETTE PRESS honors ancestry and creativity as sacred, intuition as necessary, and contemplative, expressive practices (like art, breathing, and writing) as helpful tools we can use to develop and sustain connections to ourselves, communities, and the world. ODETTE PRESS is rooted in the intention to empower, enliven, and inspire a creative practice, the voice of expression, and energy of creativity for all. for information on classes, events, and for more information on the line, follow along at @odettepress + sign up for the odette love letter, a tuesday newsletter written each week. thank you so much for being here! your support of this studio means the world.
