WELCOME
Hello and welcome to Liv Wan Illustration
My shop is full of fun and delicious art created by me. I love creating products that are full of colour and these products include posters, postcards, jigsaw puzzles, mugs, washi tape, stickers, sticker sheets and planner stickers. I’m constantly adding new products to this website and you can sign up to my newsletter to keep up to date with new products.

Shop Announcements
**Coronavirus Update**
International services are operational and we continue to accept orders for destinations across the globe. However, delays are expected due to the authorities in these countries applying special orders e.g. quarantine; or special measures being implemented by the local postal/delivery service to minimise the spread of the virus.
22nd December 2020
International delivery:
Tuesday 22nd December 2020 Royal Mail have announced major disruptions to their international shipping service. Basically, the whole of Europe is off but the USA and most other non-European countries are still on. Before placing your order make sure your country is allowed by going to the following link: https://personal.help.royalmail.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/5317/related/1
Note I use Royal Mail as they tend to be much cheaper than major couriers. These couriers (TNT, Fedex, etc) may or may not also have international shipping restrictions.
6th October 2020
A lot of people have been asking questions about postage and especially international postage. Right now I’m only offering international tracked postage for orders made outside of the UK. Sadly this is more expensive but postal services have debatable reliability and with standard postage, if your order goes missing there’s no way of tracking down items. If you’re adamant you want to pay for standard non-tracked postage, contact me and I can make an exception but note if your order gets lost in the post I will not be liable in anyway at all.

Prior to this date I was using a pro photo lab to produce A2 prints but I’m now printing these myself. As a result these prints are much cheaper now. All of my printed illustrations, especially the maps, look absolutely incredible in A2 size.
✨ EU SHIPPING IS BACK! ✨
I’m so happy to announce that our shop is now fully GPSR compliant, which means we can once again ship to EU countries! 🎉 This covers all our postcards, stickers/sticker sheets, posters, and 300-piece jigsaw puzzles.
💌 That said, becoming compliant has come with an astronomical fee to have an official representative, so unfortunately, we’ve had to add that cost to our EU postage. Postage will look higher than before, but this is what helps my little handmade business continue to survive.
📦 A gentle reminder:
* The postage printed on your Royal Mail label is not the full cost. We also pay a collection fee, plus transaction, packaging costs, and in some countries (like Germany) an annual recycling/waste (Lucid) fee.
* To save on postage, you can use our Pack Deal 💡 – mix & match products of the same price and send me your list, and I’ll create a custom-packed order for you. (Please note: different price items can’t be mixed in this deal.)
💖 And don’t forget – if you’d like extra savings, sign up for my newsletter! I send out a monthly coupon code just for
subscribers.
Thank you so much for supporting our small studio – every order really means the world 🌍💕

🌸 A little update for my lovely customers 🌸
I wanted to let you know that, for now, I’ve temporarily paused all shipping to the US, except for posters. There’s been so much conflicting information about the new US tariff rules, and I wanted to take a step back to make sure everything is done properly. I truly hope we’ll be back to full shipping soon!
If you’re in the US and really want some of my products, here are a couple of options:
1️⃣ Ask friends or family in the UK to help you place an order.
2️⃣ If you’re planning a trip to the UK, I can post your order straight to your hotel!
We are also in the process of shipping to the EU again, which will be complete very soon. We’ll announce as soon as all the documentation and processes are finalized.
Thank you so much for your understanding and patience 💛 Your support means the world to me, and I can’t wait to ship to you again soon!

✨ Still feeling so warm and fuzzy from yesterday! ✨
Thank you to everyone who stopped by my stall — especially those who lit up with a cheerful “So cute!” or “Awww stickers!” 🥹💖 Those little moments honestly make everything worth it!
A big thank you to my lovely social media friends who visited in person — I was genuinely so touched 🫶 And to my surprise, I even met one of the book designers I’m currently working with (what are the odds?! 😆 So glad I wasn’t doing something embarrassing at that exact moment).
Also, huge hugs to my sweet illustrator colleague Jennifer @abctypography for dropping by — it meant a lot 💕
The cherry on top? I had the chance to meet the art director from the famous book “Maps” — such a cool and unexpected moment! He even asked me where I received my art training… something no one has ever asked before! 😳🎨
It was such a joyful day filled with new faces, old friends, and lots of love. You guys are honestly the best. THANK YOU! 💛✨
And of course, a big thank you to Open Art Space @openartspaces for organizing such a wonderful event — it means the world to small artists like me! 🙏🌟
