For a little while I enjoyed the unplanned break, but soon my mind began to get restless.<\/p><p>I needed to do something. But not the same old thing I\u2019d been doing for goodness knows how long. A seed began to grow, like all seedlings initially unrecognisable.<\/p><p>But slowly I realised what it was. I was going to design some cool stuff, but even more daring for me, I was going to market it to the World. Cool stuff, with a twist.<\/p><p>So here it is, the launch of <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/Talismanonline.co.uk\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Talismanonline.co.uk<\/a>. Collections of cool streetwear and other cool stuff. Here\u2019s the magic bit - every item is customisable.<\/p><p>You, the customer can use the tools in my store to create something unique to you from the starting point of ANY item listed.<\/p><p>Better than that, you can design your own items from scratch - be it for a special occasion, Hens, Stags, an event, a tour, a holiday, for your family, friendship group, team or club, or just because you feel like it!<\/p><p>As if that isn\u2019t enough good stuff, if you have an idea but aren\u2019t sure how to make it reality, drop me an email on <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"mailto:steve@talismanonline.co.uk\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">steve@talismanonline.co.uk<\/a>, and I\u2019ll work with you to create your masterpiece.<\/p><p>The adventure begins - join me on it!<\/p><p>Steve G (Talisman Founder)<\/p>","urlTitle":"a-new","url":"\/blog\/a-new\/","editListUrl":"\/my-blogs","editUrl":"\/my-blogs\/edit\/a-new\/","fullUrl":"https:\/\/talismanonline.co.uk\/blog\/a-new\/","featured":false,"published":true,"showOnSitemap":true,"hidden":false,"visibility":null,"createdAt":1726328918,"updatedAt":1726329931,"publishedAt":1726329930,"lastReadAt":null,"division":{"id":280014,"name":"Talisman Online"},"tags":[],"metaImage":{"original":"https:\/\/images.podos.io\/ebvyfr0kweqa1rnqw5gse4vhtkwbjw3xxexqjkfxf3pz7i5o.png","thumbnail":"https:\/\/images.podos.io\/ebvyfr0kweqa1rnqw5gse4vhtkwbjw3xxexqjkfxf3pz7i5o.png.jpg?w=1140&h=855","banner":"https:\/\/images.podos.io\/ebvyfr0kweqa1rnqw5gse4vhtkwbjw3xxexqjkfxf3pz7i5o.png.jpg?w=1920&h=1440"},"metaTitle":"","metaDescription":"","keyPhraseCampaignId":null,"series":[],"similarReads":[{"id":53790,"title":"Free UK Shipping!","url":"\/blog\/free-uk-shipping\/","urlTitle":"free-uk-shipping","division":280014,"description":"Don\u2019t miss out!","published":true,"metaImage":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/images.podos.io\/pefy5hr00bufymfmaseweabqyi43td9vwvabesoz2u53jwug.png.jpg?w=1140&h=855","banner":"https:\/\/images.podos.io\/pefy5hr00bufymfmaseweabqyi43td9vwvabesoz2u53jwug.png.jpg?w=1920&h=1440"},"hidden":0},{"id":55135,"title":"Millennium Is Here!","url":"\/blog\/millennium-is-here\/","urlTitle":"millennium-is-here","division":280014,"description":"This Is Who We Are\nSoylent Green Is People\nWho Cares?\nIf these phrases strike a chord, like me you\u2019re probably a fan of Frank Black\u2019s exploits fighting a growing darkness as the Millennium approached back in the late 1990s.
