About

 

My name is Shirley Moneyhon, I'm a graphic designer and an artist, based in Tel-Aviv, Israel. The 555 Shop was created for me to have a place where I can make pretty things and share them with the world.

So, what is 555? five five five is actually stands for Hamsa - Hamsa - Hamsa, Hamsa is the number 5 in arabic. It's an old say, which is very similar to "knock on wood". In my family, when someone gives you a compliment you say "Hamsa - Hamsa - Hamsa". It is almost like you protect yourself with the palm of your hand - that is where the "5" came from (5 fingers). 

Anyway, thank you for taking a look at my designs, I hope you will enjoy them as much as i loved making them. 

 

Love & creation, 

Shirley
