Holly Tucker, founder of the online marketplace Not On The High Street bought one of our typographic art prints about a year ago.
A great testimonial for us. And we thought no more of it.
Until…
our lovely friend, the eagle-eyed Hayley of Ruby Wren, spotted our black and white oak-framed art print in the background of this photo.
Can you see it leaning on the radiator?
Holly Tucker put this photo on the NOTHS blog. She was writing about her son Harry’s sixth birthday party.
This particular print has now been discontinued. Which has nothing to do with Holly buying it.
However, if you’d like to see more of our typographic artwork that is for sale, do pop on over to Coulson Macleod.

Finally! Our two latest ‘Decades’ prints to add to the collection…
Distressed typography (very Coulson Macleod) printed onto a 100% recycled, off-white, uncoated, heavyweight paper. Each unframed print is 50cm x 50cm.
There are now five prints in the ‘Decades’ collection. The other three prints are: ‘The Sixties’, ‘The Seventies’ and ‘The Eighties’.
‘Decades’ are available professionally framed. We’ve chosen a white-stained Ayous Wood picture frame with a 20mm width moulding and 33mm depth. This is handmade to order to exactly fit our ‘Decades’ prints, and are assembled by hand by professional Fine Arts Guild framers. Alternatively, you can buy the ‘Decades’ collection unmounted and source your own frame.

Coulson Macleod now has a brand new website to make choosing your piece of bespoke typographic art that much simpler.
Many of our typographic art prints can be personalised to your specification. We’ve grouped together our most popular designs for you to choose from, and each style can be customised with your own choice of words and colour.
But it doesn’t end there…
You can also choose which of our exclusive handmade frames or natural base materials you want your artwork printed on.
For the majority of our designs you can choose from solid oak, reclaimed frames, reclaimed blocks, natural fabrics, rusted steel, solid limestone, recycled paper, or canvas.
Simply pick a design and a frame and tell us what you want printed, and we do the rest, resulting in a one-off piece of bespoke artwork that’s totally personal to you.
For instance, if you love our ‘What Is Love?’ limited edition typographic print (pictured below)…
You can now take this design and personalise it by adding your name and date at the bottom (great idea for wedding gifts) and put the design on a choice of frames such as…

Three new typographic art prints. Introducing ‘The Block Collection’. All very Coulson Macleod…
For this art collection we’ve hand-wrapped a block (35cm x 35cm) in natural calico, and overprinted and mounted it in a handmade frame made from reclaimed wood. The inside of the frame is hand-painted in different colours.

Introducing our latest typographic art collection — Catchphrases…
Do you know who said these three famous TV catchphrases? Tell us in the comments box.
Our latest typographic art collection features a natural hessian, hand-wrapped, block (35cm x 35cm), overprinted with typography and mounted in a handmade frame made from reclaimed wood. The inside of the frame is hand-painted white.
As is the way with Coulson Macleod, we retain any defects in the wood to add charm and character to the print, which can include (and often does) knot holes, nail holes, warps, and water marks. So not only do they look great, each typographic artwork is totally unique.

Admittedly this has been on the Coulson Macleod agenda for some time. Our customers keep asking for it. And now, finally, we’ve almost done it…
designed two more typographic prints for our ‘Decades’ collection; ‘The Nineties’ and ‘The Noughties’. Yay!
And, even more exciting news, we’re also launching a bespoke version too. We’ll obviously show you the finished prints when they’re ready.
These are the three existing typographic prints in our ‘Decades’ collection…
Our three new typographic prints will feature brand-new, even lovelier and chunkier, frames. Professionally framed by a Fine Art Trade Guild member.
So in preparation for the launch, we’ve put our framed ‘Decades’ collection (with the old-style picture frame) in our Clearance Page. So don’t hesitate if you fancy picking up a bargain, numbers are limited, and when they’ve sold out… well they’re sold out.

Natural reclaimed materials. Check. Typography. Check. Handmade. Check. Vintage feel. Check. Oh, so very Coulson Macleod.
Introducing Coulson Macleod’s Curio Collection, inspired by old pharmaceutical adverts.
For this new vintage art collection, we’ve used hessian, a coarse woven fabric made from the vegetable fibre, jute. We’ve wrapped the hessian around a block measuring 35cm x 35cm just so you know and printed the artwork onto the fabric. Then we’ve mounted this hessian print onto a handmade frame made from gorgeous reclaimed wood (Victorian roof timbers to be exact). The inside of the frame is hand-painted white.
This artwork has an unlimited print quantity.
We’ve attached a hanging mechanism to the rear of the frame so it’s ready for you to hang on your wall.
And just in case you were thinking that the wood looked a bit, well, vintage. Yep! That’s the way we like it. We purposefully retain any defects in the timber to add to the charm and character of the piece. These can include knot holes, nail holes, warps and water marks, so each artwork is totally unique.
