Vicky Yorke Designs

  Those of you who have been following my blog for a while will remember that last year I launched a selection of personalised handmade items through my Etsy shop. I have been so busy with design work over the last year that unfortunately I just don't have time to make products myself at the moment.  Never fear though! I have now teamed up exclusively with the wonderful people at withlovefrom.com to bring you a brand new selection of personalised gifts illustrated with my 'Bright Hearts' designs. And my products couldn't be in better hands. With Love From is a family run company who have been experts in engraving and printing personalised products for many years. I love their philosophy: We believe there's nothing more special than the feeling you get when somebody gives you a really thoughtful gift. One that really means something to both the giver and the recipient... We want to help people create and celebrate memories and to give gifts that m

The designs featured in my last post are from my art licensing collection, Bright Hearts  and are also available from my Etsy store as art tiles. Stand them on a shelf or use a plate hanger and display them as wall art. They are sure to brighten up any room and as many are available to personalise with your own special message they really are a unique gift for someone you love! The above print is a stand alone design that is perfect for weddings, anniversaries or as an engagement gift. Below the wall tiles also feature additional folk inspired illustrations from my art licensing collection, Folk Tale . Contact me to license designs or for collaborations here.

My first line of mugs in my Etsy store feature a selection of romantic designs, that are bright and fun! Many such as the Mr & Mrs mugs above and the He / She Put A Ring On It mugs below can be personalised and make unique gifts for occasions such as Valentine's Day, or engagement, wedding and anniversary gifts for a special couple! You can make your loved one smile on any occasion with one of my cheeky typography designs. ... Or just tell them how much they mean to you...

We also wanted our wedding breakfast to be extremely personal and to reflect our personalities. For me that of course was all about colour and pattern! I loved the idea of creating a village fair / country kitchen vintage style with florals and polka dots and subtle clashes that somehow just went together! My wonderful Nan made the table cloths, we bought crockery from charity shops and used mismatched paper napkins by the amazing  Cath Kidston to create the effect.  To make it even more personal to us and to keep with the country theme, we named each table after chicken breeds, which included breeds of chickens that we were keeping in our garden at the time. (Although, sadly since the wedding we have lost our lovely chickens to a fox :( ) I created the above designs as table markers, as well as the below wedding favour, which was printed on special flower seed paper and linked to the wedding stationery from earlier in the day to give each of our
