Look what I found behind a shelf. Had forgotten about this book, must have been a least three years ago I bought it.
Should clean more often.


Have you seen envelop.eu? An online print-on-demand platform, where independent illustrators and designers can
create cotton textile collections such as kitchenwear, pillowcovers and totebags. Sretan BOR´s apron is a favorite.

Det va en rar bok detta. Rolig titel också. Kul när man kan fynda hemma hos sig själv ibland :)

If I showed that to my little one her new favorite name would be Lena, I'm sure. For now it's Lily.
I need to clean too -- especially all those boxes.
Envelop is cool.

what i cute book! i like Lena :)

Kylie said...

Oh wow! I love that book so much! It is an absolute treasure. Makes cleaning worth it! ;)
I looked into envelop a little while ago and it is great, but the only problem is (from my reading of the fine print) they own your design afterwards. Yes, you get your design printed etc and people can buy it and you get the fee but you can't produce it yourself again on your own or somewhere else. At least, that's how I read it... hope I'm wrong cause it's such a great idea. Kylie

@ Elisabeth > thanks to mention us on your excellent blog, that's awesome!

@ Kylie > Envelop.eu works as a non-exlusive agent. Our members always and in any case retain full copyright of their illustrations, but per 1 sold item they transfer the rights to have 1 print made and produced into a textiles item.

So yes, you can always use your designs for whatever other purpose. That's one of our basic principles, but I'll have to make that more clear troughout the webpages I guess - thanks for the suggestion!

alessandra said...

I love the book, I can't imagine what other treasure you have hidden in your home!
Thanks for the link, is great.

Anna said...

Hej! jag undrade om du kunde visa/berätta om hur man gör så att det går att få stora bilder på blogspot, jag har frågat runt och prövat sjävl. Ingen svarar och det jag har testat fungerar inte. Jag skulle bli väldigt glad om du kunde visa eller berätta för mig.
Mvh anna

Hello, I would like to thank you so so SO much for sharing Envelop on your blog. I'm starting up a little shop and want textiles with my drawings on them, but haven't got the time to focus on learning how to screenprint... I was thinking just today how wonderful it would be if there was a service that did what Envelop does. Perfect :)
