I am so very excited as I have a new print on demand, custom made to order online shop under the manufacturing auspices of Contrado. Based in London UK, where all the products are hand made just for you, it is nice to now have a shop on the other side of the pond so my UK and European customers will pay lower shipping costs and avoid the possibility of duties on their purchases.
Contrado is a privately held company which pays a great deal of attention to the making of their items and they afford me, as a designer, some really fantastic and almost endless possibilities to create custom made items that are unique in the market and fun to design.

Here are a few of the new items I have already added - I am slowly adding all my patterns and illustrations - you can look in my Spoonflower shop to see all the patterns I will be adding and, as always, please feel free to ask me to mock up a design on an item you would like to see that isn't already in the new shop.

I am thrilled to be able to offer carry on sized suitcases in all my patterns - they are 22'' x 9'' x 14'' inches, weight 7.5 lb with a capacity of 13.7 gallons, have TAS locks, an adjustable handle, 2 internal mesh zip pockets, a double
zip opening and internal straps to keep your baggage in place and secure
no matter where it ends up. They are of strong design with 8 well swivelling wheels making them easy to manoeuver. AND they have a 3 year guarantee on print, and product structure. The plastic shell is polycarbonate, which is really hard wearing. The print finish (only on the front the back is shiny black) is under a plexiglass shell which has been tested for scratch resistance
and under normal usage performed very well..especially with it being a
carry on where you can have more control over how the suitcase is
handled, but as with everything printed the gentler you treat it the
longer it will last. Customers have reported being very pleased with it
when they have used it for frequent travel. Can't wait to get designing more of these fun items - you'll always be able to spot your luggage when it has one of my bright and colourful designs!

Wild, whacky and wondrous Espadrilles - even the insoles are printed with mix and match - although I do have more 'ordinary' ones too where the shoes are the same for each foot :)

Really nicely made hoodies in a smooth terry cloth fabric - the sleeves, front, back, hood and hood lining are all printed separately and thus I can design REALLY unique items with co-ordinated patterns for each individual template. So nice the hood is lined too!
My cut and sew long sleeves are similar in that I can co-ordinate the patterns for front, back, sleeves and neck binding.

Gorgeous Sarongs for that dream vacation or honeymoon - in floaty chiffon or silk sensation that dry easily and stay colorfast. Available in half or full length. Some people call these fabric wraps, cover ups, pareo wraps, even
sarong skirt or dress. Beautiful and super useful, they always look
stylish due to the number of ways you can wear them. Perfect as a beachwear
accessory and looks fab paired with a trendy baseball cap and co-ordinated swimsuit. The print will stay true and colorfast for 2 years guaranteed.

Swimsuits in soft and durable lycra - there's even a sparkly option, the one I would always choose - have a scoop neckline and low-cut back, sizes: XS, S, M, L, XL, 2XL, 3XL, 4XL plus size swimwear with a 2 year guarantee on print, material and stitching finish. This stylish piece will see you through many summers at the beach and
pool. This is a tight figure-hugging garment. For a looser fit we would
recommend choosing the Lycra Sheen as this has a lot more stretch and
movement.

10 section Baseball Caps with a curved peak. Cut and sewn by hand with an adjustable covered Velcro closure. Even the underside of the peak is printed. Available in 2 sizes. Made from twill fabric, which ensures that it prints with extremely high
quality. The crisp white base creates a strong contrast to the bright
vibrant range of colors of my prints. The final print produces very
fine and intricate lines. These fun, fun, fun and unique Baseball Hats are tough and strong. Wipe clean is the recommended cleaning procedure.
