As I briefly mentioned on twitter last week, I’ve done some illustration work for Bath & Body Works and the first of the products have recently come out! These were put to bed months and months ago, so it’s great to see them all REAL on actual packaging and I’m so pleased with how they turned out. I wish we had a store in the UK so I could go and look at them on the shelves, but a few people have snapped them for me on Instagram which was the next best thing. Not to gush, but it is really thrilling to have something of mine out there on such a big scale (Bath & Body Works have more than 1,600 stores!) that people are buying (I hope!).

I love the metallic ink they went with for the bag.

I love your illustrations for Bath & Body Works! Congratulations on such a huge collaboration, and I can’t wait to see these in stores. I live in the US and there are little B&BW boutiques all over the place.

Congratulations, that is so amazing! I can’t even fathom how exciting and awestruck it must be to see your own work on something like that. Unfortunately, I don’t have Bath + Body Works where I live but I’ve heard enough from my American friends to know it’s a great brand!
