My business name is Howaya and I make illustrated prints of Irish people and culture.
The subjects range from sports people like Roy Keane to Dublin street characters like Bang Bang, to The Dubliners (€10 to €20), above. I’m based in Phibsborough, Dublin and sell the prints in local markets and from my website here.

Hi, we, at In Knocksink Wood, make Irish-made Fairy Doors in Enniskerry, Co. Wicklow. Each door – such as the Tooth Fairy Door above, €25, plus P&P – is hand crafted, cast from resin and hand painted, and we have a lovely range to collect. Doors, windows and accessories can be found on our website here. We are a small homemade craft business and do not mass produce our products.

I work as an illustrator and storyboard artist for productions such as the TV series ‘Vikings’ among others. Recently I launched a new website: Ireland Posters which creates and prints a range of retro-style posters capturing the beauty and drama of Ireland and its regions.

The idea for the website started with just two posters, Kilkenny and Drogheda – my adopted city and my hometown; designed and printed partly as thank-you gifts to some friends and partly because I figured there was a demand out there for some nicely updated prints in the style of old railway posters.

Ireland Posters are currently offering 25 unique prints, with new works being added regularly. The posters and Prints are priced from €25 with illustrations of towns and popular destinations, through to fine architectural prints of Dublin’s iconic buildings such as The Custom House, Dublin Castle and the Four Courts. There are also a series of golfing prints capturing the country’s links courses. We ship worldwide.

Just thought you might plug our exhibition opening tonight at the Icon Factory, Aston Place, Temple Bar, Dublin. We’re selling Christmas cards (never too early) all of the proceeds from which will be donated to the Peter McVerry Homeless Trust. We don’t even reclaim the cost of printing. The cards (until stocks last) will be available from the Icon Factory for a month.

I design greeting cards, framed prints and more (baby/wedding stationery) and have been spreading Christmas around Dublin by surprising people around the city today, leaving little Christmas surprises for them at bus stops, in the Dublin Bike baskets, on postboxes, parking ticket machines etc.
The surprise contains one of my first ever collection of Christmas Cards for the lucky recipient to send/give to someone special encouraging people to be more traditional this year and to let someone know they care with a handwritten card. There was also something sweet in the bag to add to the Christmas cheer….

Collection here.

Specified things that look like Ireland.

Includes ‘basket case’ and bonus bear-shaped illusion.

Jenny Walsh writes:

I have a couple of new Ireland shaped designs and a few people have suggested I get in touch with you about them. The first is called ‘The Country Shaped Like A Bear’ and has a bear hidden inside Ireland’s silhouette. Do you see it? Made by drawing, laser cutting and then glueing 11 layers of corrugated card, this bowl makes a great desk tidy (€30).

The Irish bowl is designed to subtly contain the shape of Ireland without being too obvious or twee. Made from 15 pieces of beautifully finished 4mm thick birch plywood with 50 hand-glued joints at €55. They are available from my website [link below] and come with free delivery and complimentary gift wrapping in silver paper with a red satin ribbon. Order by Friday for Xmas delivery…

Lovely.
