Lucky Ladybugs

What’s black and red and cute all over? A ladybug! Nearly every culture considers the ladybug to be lucky and in France it’s said that if a ladybug lands on you, whatever ailment
you have will fly away with the ladybug. Folklore suggests if you catch a ladybug in your home, count the number of spots and that’s how many dollars you’ll soon find. One thing is certain; the ladybug is a popular design motif in home décor.

You’ll find the ladybug motif on fashion comforters set in black and white, maybe because the red really pops on such a background and the red, white and black color combination is pleasing to both men and women. But not all ladybugs are depicted as red with black spots, although that is the traditional ladybug image.

The lucky ladybug has flown into the nursery where you will find a beautiful ladybug bedding set in shades of pink and brown – the Ladybug Lullabye crib bedding and accessories by Nojo are very trendy with the use of pink coupled with coco brown and aqua.  On a trendy note, the Bananafish Classic Cutie crib bedding is very fashion forward with pink and green ladybugs on a navy field.

Ladybugs for teens and tweens are popular too. The Pretty in Pink quilt set with lime and magenta ladybugs and daisy print is fresh and cute as can be. According to a Norse legend, the ladybug came to earth riding on a bolt of lightning; perhaps lightening will strike twice when you add a ladybug toss pillow to any room for a little bit of luck!
