Our Services

There are two fantastic ways you can purchase from Dandilyon Illustrates.

The first option is to buy from our delightful 'Designs on Demand’ selection, featuring an array of charming illustrations that are ready for you to choose. Once your design has been chosen, I will send you the vintage tea plates that I have in stock for you to decide upon. Once you have chosen, I can start drawing, then it will be swiftly posted to brighten up your space.

The second option allows you to buy a custom plate; this can be something special that you can personalise with names and dates plus you can choose the design from my range to accompany the text.

This wonderful selection also includes beautifully crafted couple and family portraits, and enchanting wedding portraits designed to capture your most cherished moments. You can choose from my standard illustration of the happy couple with their name and wedding date, or you might like to choose the personalised portrait option where you can send me a photograph of the couple for me to illustrate in my signature style.

Get to
know Me

Dandilyon Illustrates started in 2021.

I had been made redundant two months into maternity leave in the pandemic after having my first child. This was challenging and a strain on my family.

Less than a year later we found out we were having another baby and at this point, I made the decision to take the leap of faith and navigate using my love of illustration to drive a small business idea!

Three years in and after much hard work I am creating plates for so many wonderful people and families; I take part in artists’ markets and I also stock the lovely Whin Shop in Berwick on Tweed.
