From my attempt at the 100 day project (I will be giving it another go) to seeing my designs on t-shirts, all of my eight year old dreams are coming true.

Love Is All You Need

“In this world of complex issues, sometimes we can all do with the reminder that love is all you need to make the world a slightly easier place to live.”

T-shirts kind of happened by accident. I was playing with seventies inspired lettering and sharing it on Instagram, and was shocked into action by all the comments saying t-shirt please, t-shirt please, t-shirt please.

I figured if people were asking for it I could have a go and see if I could make it happen. And I did! I am so proud of the t-shirts and hoodies I created, and they have now almost sold out, so you must love them as much as I do.

For the first round I ran into some challenges. I discovered that the drop-shipping printer I had chosen only printed a limited range of colours in Australia. Of course that did not include any of the beautiful colours I chose!! My solution was to make them limited edition, so that people treasure them like a piece of art, and to take preorders, so to minimise the financial risk. I was blown away to have sold two thirds of them in pre-orders!!

That gave me the confidence to push ahead and order the full edition of 100, which have almost sold out.

I have since added two more designs, still limited to 100 prints, and I have more designs planned!

From little me spending all her time lying on the floor and drawing people in fabulous outfits, to having my own t-shirt range. My inner child is glowing with happiness.

Is there something on your childhood dreams wish-list that you are secretly still hoping might happen? Let me know in the comments.
