“I saw Kate’s wildlife map prints whilst on holiday. I thought they were lovely but wanted something more personal. I was delighted when she said she could use the maps I chose. I am so happy with the results, they look beautiful hanging in my home!”
Since the Tour de France came to Yorkshire several years ago, cycling has become very popular here, I’m sure it has grown in popularity everywhere though really. For all those enthusiastic cyclists out there, this is the personalised gift for you. Choose a map of your regular routes or maybe a map to commemorate a very special ride you have completed.
The background is a plain colour with a map silhouette overlayed. These bespoke map prints can be personalised with specific maps & colours, see below.

Daffodils, in the UK they signal the arrival of Spring and give us the boost we need after a grey winter with their bobbing yellow heads. The flower comes in all kinds of yellows and whites, from the very tiny ones to the big double headed showy ones. This bespoke Daffodil print celebrates the wild Daffs we see on the grass verges or on the edge of woodland.
Here we have a design of a little clutch of wild Daffodils which can be personalised with a map of your choice*. And different from the rest of my bespoke collection, this design is available in four completely different colourways, two of which have the addition of textured lines in the background adding something a little different.
*Please note that the maps vary in colour and will look different against the background colours eg. flatter areas are greener and will suit the darker backgrounds. Hillier areas are browner and work with most of the colours available. Please just ask if you would like help with choosing a colour. Email: info@katethorntondesign.com

The Skylark has an unmistakable song, rising up to 300m almost vertically whilst singing like it’s being drawn up on invisible string.

This mounted Curlew map print celebrates this special bird with a most magnificent and memorable feature - its long curved beak. These birds live in both moorland, coastal and wetland environments, often coming inland to breed. Its beak is the means to dig under the sand or earth to find food. A bird, like many others, sadly in decline in the UK.

Owls and full moons are a match made in heaven to me. I love Japanese design and this simple design with the textures of the pine tree branches with the dark navy background has a definite Japanese feel to it.
Did you know Owls don’t call Twit-Twoo? The male Owl makes a low ‘hoohooo’ and the female replies with the sharper 'kewick'. You are more likely to hear Tawny Owls in Autumn and Winter in the UK when they establish and protect their territories.
