Nicola Hanrahan

Textile Designer & Illustrator

Everything I blog are things that either inspire me, make me smile or I just generally think are beautiful!
Occasionally I will post things I have been working on, and if you want to see more of my work then visit my website by clicking on the link below!

I love flowers, birds, animals and anything else to do with nature and are my main inspiration in my work. My etsy shop will stock things to buy soon so keep checking by!

My work is now for sale in The Bowery in Headingley, Leeds! If you live nearby I’d love it if you went and had a peek!

I’m currently working on creating a new website and re-launching my etsy shop, so some of these illustrations will be new additions very soon!

If you live outside the UK tonight is your last chance to order anything from my shop to get it in time for Christmas!

I’m also doing hand drawn doodles as a little extra gift - I’ll even draw requests if you leave me a message when you order!

Have a browse here!

Thanks :) xxx

I’m in love with Emily’s creations! They’re so cute and beautifully painted! I’m definitely buying some of these for presents! I found her through her friend Chloe.

Today has been a day of tasty treats, watching Dress To Kill and making sock monsters while staying in pyjamas. Here are Edward and Big Fishy Bob (as an ode to Eddie Izzard) made by me and Laura.

I’ve bundled up some of my cards to take to Leeds Craft Centre, I’m hoping they like them enough to sell. Soooo the only question remains…who wants to pretend to be me and take them for me?! Ha what a wuss!
