Beautiful butterflies

I created this butterfly print a while ago and it's now available in my Spoonflower shop on a variety of different coloured backgrounds. 

The black version of this butterfly print shows off the colours of the butterflies beautifully and looks great as a cushion cover.

The pink butterfly version is very vibrant and would look great in a little girl's bedroom.

You can find it on a selection of bedding options in my Spoonflower shop, including this butterfly duvet cover.

The cream version is nice and fresh.

This would look great as a butterfly table cloth. It comes on a variety of shapes and sizes.

And last, but not least, this fabulous turquoise background.

It looks great on napkins.

Kimono cuff bracelets

We love vintage kimono fabrics and Japanese cottons at Cheeky Leopard and they lend themselves so beautifully to many different products in my store, including these fabulous cuff bracelets.

I'm naturally drawn to bright colours and with each bracelet, I like to take my time to choose the right design. The design can't be too big, otherwise you won't see enough of it, in such a small space.

Each cuff has a canvas strap inside. This gives it strength, but also means that it is flexible so that it fits around the wrist easily. I back each cuff with a solid cotton fabric, using a colour that compliments the main design.

Each cuff is held closed with a complimentary kimono-covered button and brightly coloured elastic loop. The elastic means that the cuff can expand to fit different-sized wrists.

If bright colours are not your thing, this cuff bracelet below is more subdued with its pretty black and white butterfly design. There are touches of red in the body of the butterflies so I decided to use a red backing to match it.

This cuff is held closed with a hexagon print kimono-covered button and red elastic loop.

These cuffs are a great addition to any outfit and make a lovely gift for someone special. It could also be matched to one of the silk scarves or kimono clutch bags which can all be found in my store.

Summer butterflies

It's a beautiful sunny day today which I hope means summer is officially on it's way! To celebrate, I just added this stunning kimono clutch to my Etsy store. It is made from a vibrantly coloured child's kimono which has a bold butterfly print in multi color shades on a turquoise ground, and check out the bright red lining. This clutch is the perfect accompaniment to a summer dress - all I need now is the tan!

You can find it here.
