February Birth Flower Print - Violet

Printing violets in violet!

The February print for my birth flower series is here! This month the flower is the violet and is currently available in tea towels and cards sets. I have to say, of all of the flower prints so far, this might be my favorite. I did a bit of a different composition with this one and tied the little bouquet of violets up with a ribbon, which I think adds a sweet vintage touch to the design.

I also printed a slightly different version of this month’s tea towel. Using purple ink (it is a violet after all) I printed the entire towel in the violet flower print in alternating directions. After I finished the first towel it made me want to print yards and yards of this design on fabric to sew into a dress!

Violets are thought to symbolize innocence, abundance, and true love. I think this would make a great February wedding gift, housewarming gift, or thoughtful gift for a special teacher.

EACH of the twelve flower bouquet prints are hand stamped so there will be slight variations between each one, which with any block printed piece makes it uniquely wonderful.

I have also released my first set of birth flower themed card sets with this violet design. It is a set of 4 card printed on kraft paper in archival black ink.

You can shop all of these violet items, or request a special order at my Etsy shop: www.etsy.com/shop/melissapothier
