Buying presents for people is honestly the BANE of my life.

I find it so impossible to come up with a unique idea in an age where everyone has it all, not to mention it can be super costly. A while back I received a print when I was moving house. I found the perfect wall for it and every time I pass it in the house I smile. My friend is moving soon and I didn't even have to think about what I was going to get them - a print is the perfect gift.

Leigh Leigh Prints are simple but effective with some delivering powerful messages.

Commenting on her underwear print she said: "I made this screenprint 2 years ago and unfortunately, absolutely nothing has changed in this country’s mindset since then. We are still victim-blaming, still telling victims they “should have been careful”, “shouldn’t have dressed so provocatively”. I’m appalled by the way women are treated day in and day out." https://www.instagram.com/p/B1o3GCSIXUd/ Leigh creates new prints on her Instagram every week and you can get them in all sizes. With a Fine Arts degree from NCAD, Leigh has now decided to set up her own print business. I always like to support Irish talent when they are starting out and I'm super excited to watch Leigh's business grow. This one, in particular, would be a dream in the kitchen: https://www.instagram.com/p/B1q-tYqhIRS/ If you want to keep it compact, she also designs amazing stickers that I'm totally obsessed with. These will go nicely in my new planner: https://www.instagram.com/p/B1o38bKIb6j/ To keep up to date with Leigh's prints, follow her Instagram!
