Cute fruit

 I designed this cute fruit print a while ago but have recently added to my Redbubble shop on this pretty pink background. It makes a great summer print on a variety of items fit for a fabulous summer wardrobe.

The fruit print A-line dress is made from polyester but has a silky handfeel. Its loose, flowy fit makes it perfect for the beach.

The cute fruit print bucket hat is perfect for shading from the sun. It's also lightweight and easy to pack.

The fruit print drawstring bag is perfect for taking to the beach.

The fruit print tote bag is sturdy, has two black shoulder straps and is available in three sizes.

This fruit print backpack is nice and sturdy and has padded adjustable straps. It also has a zipper pocket on the outside and a mesh pocket on the side, perfect for storing a water bottle to easily access.

Feeling fruity

 I'm feeling fruity today! Celebrating this warmer weather with some happy fruit designs. These prints were each hand-drawn on the computer and include watermelons, apples, pears and pineapples in a selection of fresh colours. All can all be found in my Spoonflower shop where they can be bought on a variety of fabrics by the yard, or you can buy them as ready-made items.

Who can resist these happy smiling fruit?! Some are wearing sunglasses too!

These happy fruits look great as napkins for a summer garden party.

Jaunty smiling apples and pears donning polka dot bow ties.

This cute cushion would be a great addition to a girl's bedroom.

I love the fresh turquoise background of this mini fruit print.

Fruity tableware is a fun way to brighten the kitchen table or to use at a summer garden party.

Pineapples are the perfect print for a summer cocktail napkin. Pair it with a pina colada or two.

Watermelon heaven

I've been getting quite crafty recently! My latest craft project was to create some gift bags for my niece's upcoming 9th birthday party. Being a nine year old girl, she naturally likes all things pink and preferably with a unicorn, mermaid or pineapple on it, so these watermelon pouches seemed the perfect compliment. All you need is some pink paper, a black pen and some tape.

I found a fab tutorial at ohhappyday.com. It was really easy to follow and a great project to share with both my nieces. We each had a job to do - Lila was colouring in the watermelon seeds (easily drawn with a black marker pen), I was doing the sticking (slightly fiddly, using double-sided tape) and Flo was attaching the green washi tape and filling the pouches. It was a great way to get crafty as well as spend some fab time with my beautiful nieces! You can see the finished result below. We decided to use a combination of red paper and pink paper to mix up the colours a bit.

I'm a bit partial to watermelon designs myself and have a watermelon item in my store - this fab little tissue holder. Each melon is printed in gold and they sit on a pale pink ground.

Other fruity items include this sweet little strawberry coin purse which can be used for storing small change or as a headphone case.
