Each month has its flower, and people tattoo their own or a bouquet of their family's birth flowers. The sheet shows a single January carnation on a long stem, a bouquet of larkspur, aster and chrysanthemum tied with a thin ribbon, and a May lily of the valley, each in fine line, watercolor and dotwork. Type another month or flower, and the same three styles carry it.

  • a flower for your own birth month
  • a bouquet for a family with several birth months
  • a gift print for a mother or grandmother

Frequently asked questions

Which months are shown?
The sample shows January (carnation), May (lily of the valley), and a bouquet of July (larkspur), September (aster) and November (chrysanthemum).
Can I get a flower for another month?
Yes. Type the month or the flower you want and the three styles are applied to it. The result is a request, not a promised image.
What is the difference between the styles?
Fine line uses thin single strokes, watercolor uses loose coloured washes past a thin black line, and dotwork is built from fine black dots.
How is the bouquet drawn?
Several birth flowers are tied into one design with a thin ribbon, so one picture holds a whole family's months.

About toile

This page is a showcase and a starting point: nine samples already rendered, three readings of the pack crossed with three styles, each shown at the size and ratio it was made for. Take any of them further on the wall with a few words, or ask for all nine again under your own direction; a sign-in keeps what you make, and it is free while Toile is new. The recipe behind each sample — the subject, the style, the palette, the framing — travels with the image rather than staying private to the render: it is in the alt text of every sample and in the page's own structured data, so a search engine reads the same handles a person would.
