Daily Sip Studios was established in 2008 by Kimberly FitzSimons, who is
the designer, paper cutter, letterpress printer and driving force
behind the company. Her interest in the stationery business started
while preparing for her California wine country wedding in 2007.
In early 2009, Kimberly opened her stationery shop, Daily Sip Studios
on Etsy.com and has and shipped her stationery all over the world, from
Canada to Australia to France to Tokyo. In 2010, Kimberly purchased a
Vandercook SP-15 letterpress, moved into a new studio space, and
expanded the line to include letterpress stationery.
Daily Sip Studios is named after Kimberly’s love of wine. She once
maintained a wine blog called “the daily sip,” which eventually was
converted to the company name and website/blog she manages today.
Kimberly and her husband (affectionately known as “Mr. Daily Sip”)
developed a wine brand, “One M,” in Sonoma, California. The first
vintage, a 2008 Cabernet sourced from Mt. Veeder in Napa Valley, which
was released in 2010. The 2009 Cabernet vintage from Rockpile Vineyard
in Sonoma is currently in the barrel!
Daily Sip Studios is located in Chicago, where Kimberly lives with Mr.
Daily Sip and their three wine fridges. Baby Sip is due in June 2011!
