Bluebonnet Junk Journal Ephemera
Hello there!
I'd like to showcase Calico Collage's newest junk journal ephemera collection today, Bluebonnet.
The scientific name for this flower is Lupinus texensis, but Texans call it the bluebonnet.  In 1901, this flower was designated as the official flower of Texas.  The buffalo clover, wolf flower, and el canejo are all names for this flower.  The sapphire blue petals are said to resemble the bonnets worn by pioneer women to protect themselves from the sunlight.  Another story lies behind this lovely flower, a Native American folk tale about a selfless indigenous girl who sacrificed her beloved doll to save her people and land from a terrible drought.  You can hear the story of this beautiful flower here.  After hearing this moving story, I knew I had to make something that featured this lovely flower.Bluebonnet Junk Journal Ephemera
