Since 2012 ‘Visions of the Past‘ has been dedicated to the promotion and coverage of Irish history, heritage, folklore and the built environment.
To date the website has had over 800k visits and has documented 350 historic sites.
We are passionate about Irish heritage and with this in mind we have decided to commission three talented Irish designers to create some fantastic hard enamel pins and a tote with an Irish folklore focus.
Today we have launched our etsy shop and our first two enamel pins alongside our tote bag.
The first pin is the ‘Hawthorn Tree‘ pin designed by TwoheadedDog Art, a tree closely linked to Irish folklore and fairy lore.
The second is the enigmatic and powerful ‘Sheela Na Gig’ pin designed by Votive Illustration.
The tote is the logo for VOTP and features the bell tower of my favourite Dublin church St Audoen’s. We are already working on further designs and hope to expand the range over the coming months.
Expand the range.
Fnarr.
