Little Shop Update..

.

And finally, the Fairytale Silhouettes are here, for real, in print!

I am so pleased with the prettiness, the quality of this batch. They shall be available over at the Etsy shop within the next hour or so. These particular prints are all 10x8 inches, although smaller versions and sets will be available upon request. 

For those of you who are not yet familiar with the series, please check out the previous three or four posts. Almost all of the Silhouettes that I have created over the past few weeks are included, not merely the bear series shown here.

Print Holly Sundress, Topshop.

Mirlo, of course, approves. A terrible photograph, which does the dress no justice whatsoever, but I could not resist the kitty part;)

And the Broderie sundress, which I have almost worn to pieces already ♥

I must head off on my merry way now, new books beckon (Daphne Du Maurier short stories and Wilkie Collins' Moonstone arrived this afternoon), and the shop must receive those long overdue updates before my next cup of tea.

Oh, and I would like to offer my sincerest thanks for all of your lovely comments and support regarding the Fairytale Silhouettes series of the past few weeks.  You make the sharing of my visions and most curious ideas so very, very worthwhile:)

Take care
