Getting Dirty So Your Clothes Don't Have To

Café Press have added 3 new colours to their range of aprons so you can look extra stylish cooking your Christmas turkey/goose/vegtetarian alternative.


Khaki and lemon aprons have been added automatically to all shops.  To see them, click on the white apron in the Home & Office section and you'll see the other options. Select the colour of your choice and you'll then see what it will look like with my design printed on it. (Here's a clue - bloomin' gorgeous, that's what it'll look like!)




Aprons in white, khaki and lemon


Dark (navy blue) aprons are also available but I need to add these manually to the shops, so I'll be rolling them out along with the general update I told you about last week.  So far you'll find them in the heart, apple and beachball designs.



Navy blue aprons - turkeytastic!


All aprons are 31" long x 29" wide, made from 100% heavy cotton twill and are machine washable.  They feature a neck loop and waist-level drawstring.  Two generous pockets are fitted to hold your cooking utensils, paintbrushes, gardening tools or whatever other use you want to put them to.


At £14 for the light apron and £15 for the dark*, these are great value, hard-wearing and stylish. You'll stand out from the crowd in my eyecatching exclusive artwork and I won't even mind if you get gravy all down it, honest!


To visit the shops, just click on a design you like from the buttons on the left of this page.

An Alternative Thought For Armistice Day

I found this through Twitter and it seemed kind of appropriate for today.

The Sunday Head****

Just to prove head****ing isn't a modern phenomenon, here's something which dates from around the late 19th century (actual date unknown).  It was produced by the Liverpool photography agency of Brown, Barnes and Bell.

Oooh! Aaah! Woo!

If the dodgy weather's stopping you from getting to a real display over this bonfire weekend (it's never just November 5th now, is it?) here's a crazy (and totally safe) firework display to keep you amused for a few seconds.



Take a couple of minutes to check out PES' other animations as well, they're all really creative and very funny.

Product Update: Organic T Shirts

I'm in the process of updating all my Cafe Press shops to make sure the full range of products are available for you to order in time for Christmas.  Over the next couple of weeks I'll be highlighting some of my favourites.  If you're enjoying reading my blog, please lend my shops your support.  Each one contains over a hundred products that are perfect for all your gifts, greetings and homeware needs.


In the current update, I'm adding Cafe Press' new range of organic T shirts to each shop.  There are 13 styles, to fit everyone from babies to adults.  Adult shirts come in standard and fitted cuts, and most of them are available in a range of colours.


The T shirts, produced by companies such as American Apparel and Econscious, are made of 100% certified organic cotton, so you can be guaranteed of their quality and comfort.


Here are some examples from the apple, beachball and heart shops, which are the ones I've updated so far.  


All other shops will be updated over the next week and I'll keep you posted with my progress. You can get instant updates by following me on Twitter or Facebook, just click on the round "t" or "f" buttons on the left.


Also on the left, you'll see the buttons that take you to the shops.  Just click on the design you like, and you'll be taken to all the amazing products you can have it printed on.


More product updates soon - keep watching!
