Really love this card - bought for my partner's birthday and is such a cool illustration. Very original and high quality print. Arrived quickly in perfect condition. The biodegradable plastic sleeve was a nice touch! Will be buying more from this shop in the future as I love the style!

Took a chance on this as the shop had no reviews but it's really beautiful print! Really high quality and I love the illustration and the vintage page. Feels very original. It arrived quickly in perfect condition in a sturdy, card-backed mount, which was nice as it means I can display it while I wait for the frame to arrive. Overall, very happy!

Vintage Pages & Fresh Canvases

Welcome to The Whim of Small Things

Welcome to The Whim of Small Things, where forgotten pages find new purpose and china ink embraces its imperfections.

I am Federica, an illustrator who rediscovered her passion after years away from the craft. With a degree in Illustration from Rome, I blend my classical training with a renewed creative spirit.

Each piece in this shop, whether on vintage or new paper, is a one-of-a-kind creation. From characters emerging from aged texts to illustrations on pristine pages, my artworks seek to capture the whimsy found in everyday small things.

At The Whim of Small Things, I believe in:

- Upcycling with care: Every antique page is thoughtfully selected and respected.
- Embracing imperfection: The subtle marks of time add character to vintage pieces.
- Sustainable creativity: I transform forgotten papers into eco-friendly art.
- Unique storytelling: Each print tells its own tale.

A world where small things make a big impact. Discover the perfect piece to add a touch of whimsy, history, and artistry to your space.
