bespo is online community store for designers to turn their designs into products and for buyers to purchase unique cushions, tea towels, wallpaper and more. bespo is based in the uk but also ships worldwide. as a designer all you need to do to open your store is upload your artworks which bespo then produce and ship for you while you'll recieve a percentage of the price without losing any of your design rights. here are some of my current faves found on the bespo website last week...
