Don't Look at Me in That Tone of Voice
€22.50While the phrase has been attributed to Dorothy Parker, Punch Magazine and a play from 1875, I definitely associate it with Irish Mammies.

What's the Craic?
€22.50What's the Craic is a very Irish opener. Used in place of have you any news / how are you doing, it's an invitation to start a story, Craic, is and Irish language word that is roughly translated as fun, enjoyment, or sociability but is kind of untranslatable - although you'll know it when you see it. One of the worst insults anyone could throw at you is that you are no craic. Made by dusty boy designs in Wexford, these handsome prints sprinkle a little bit of Irish sensibility to any interior.

She Didn't Lick That Off the Ground

Acting the Maggot
€22.50Acting the maggot is fooling around, or messing. It denotes a light-hearted approach to whatever is going on, that can be used as an explanation - sure I was only acting the maggot , or a request to settle down - stop acting the maggot .
