Máire McKeogh writes:
I launched ‘Sealed with Irish Love’ in October 2013 creating homeware and gift products for people looking for a flavour of Ireland in their homes. Designs such as the windswept hawthorn tree; old Irish bicycle; village water pump and bird feathers are inspired by ramblings and road trips across the Irish countryside. All made with love in Dublin.

The Forks collection [above] is printed with imagery of antique forks with a rambling ‘herbarium’ plant print in the background. The antique forks, were found at an antiques market in Paris, each one has beautiful detail. The forks throw shadows across the print in trompe l’oeil effect. The background repeat print is taken from a drawing study of ancient plants stored at the Herbarium in Dublin’s Botanical Gardens. This print is created using a combination of sketching, photography, water colour and collage. The imagery is first created on paper and it is then translated on to fabric. This range is available in Article, Arnotts & Kilkenny Shop and a my shop [link below]

I guess this kinda qualifies…Quotefish is a bootstrapped startup based in Wicklow, a kind-of tradesmen.ie but for every kind of small businesses. Since we launched in September last year, we’ve had a few hundred Irish businesses register with us and a few thousand Euros of work offered to them from people looking to give work to local businesses.We’ve also been nominated and runners up or finalists in four awards (that’s almost one a month).If you need something done, don’t pick up the phone, just post it on Quotefish, and businesses will contact you.
