LUCKY LADYBIRDS

Ladybirds are thought to be the luckiest of insects, and perhaps the cutest, too! Some say that when a ladybird lands on an object, it’s a sign that a new or updated version will be heading your way.

A ladybird landing on your skin or clothing is thought to be particularly lucky (so make a wish!), while ladybird sightings can foretell good weather, which in turn leads to rich harvests for farmers.

Due to their auspicious nature, a ladybird image is perfect as a gift for anyone starting a new venture. Similarly, they make a lovely talisman for babies and young children, as they are believed to bring protection and good fortune.
