These Lucky Little Grasshoppers placed 12th
Grasshoppers symbolize luck, progress and positivity. They move by leaping and hopping. They can't leap or hop backward, only forward and sideways. This design was my entry for Spoonflower’s yellow and gray competition.
Grasshoppers symbolize luck, progress and positivity. They move by leaping and hopping. They can't leap or hop backward, only forward and sideways. This design was my entry for Spoonflower’s yellow and gray competition. It got a lot of love in voting and was awarded 12th place!
I chose grasshoppers as a subject because what they symbolize really resonated with me, especially after the year I had in 2020. As I journey through the unknown of 2021 I am hopeful that luck, progress and positivity are on my side.
This design is available in my Spoonflower shop on fabric, wallpaper and an assortment of home decor products.
A blue and green version of this design is available in my Redbubble shop on all sorts of fun products.
Hens in the Garden
Most of my designs have a story. Read about how my “Hens in the Garden” collection came to be. Post also contains a link where you can buy it as fabric, gift wrap or wallpaper.
Every year when it warms up my husband and I get excited about having a garden. We plant a little bit of EVERYTHING which is always way too much, get excited when things start to grow and then loose interest as the weeds and bugs take over. This year we decided to approach things differently. We bought already started plants and only what we knew we'd eat- lettuce, broccoli and herbs. Everything was doing great and then after getting the back yard fence installed, we decided to let our 6 hens out of their coop. Within minutes, possibly even seconds, they ate every single head of lettuce in the garden. They didn't touch anything else, just the lettuce. Apparently, hens really like lettuce.
We now have an additional fence around the garden to protect our recovering lettuce, but from this experience I was inspired to create this collection of designs called "Hens in the Garden" each design is now available for purchase on Spoonflower as fabric, gift-wrap or wallpaper. Since I'm a seller on Spoonflower but not a sewer, I'm hoping someone will buy a few yards and make something adorable so I can see these designs come to life! I think these chickens would look great on aprons or teatowels!
Buy a few yards from this collection, sew it into something awesome and tag me on Instagram!
