Great news!!! Paper Bird has taken flight in cyberspace!

www.paperbird.ie




So delighted and excited Paper Bird is finally on-line, and not without a huge amount of blood, sweat, tears and a few ruffled feathers!
A huge thanks to my beautiful assistant Charles for all of his hard work (in truth it's been finished for months, I have taken forever to fill in the gaps).
However, it's here at last and with fully functioning shop!... oooh the sophistication!

Please take a look, and let your pals know too.

Thanks
