Papillon Limited Edition Print from Peagreen Design

Peagreen 

This gorgeous print from Winchester based design group Peagreen is a lovely way to brighten up a child's bedroom without resorting to the predictable sort of kids artwork that they will grow out of very quickly.

There is a great choice of prints on the Peagreen site, and you can see that these guys are commercial designers from the quality of the work.

Papillon is a limited edition of 25 and the style of illustration wouldn't look out of place in a picture book from the 70's. The print is 40 x 50cm and priced at £45.

Order from Peagreen before Friday for delivery before Christmas.
