The Wild Grace of Queen Anne’s Lace

There’s something magical about Queen Anne’s Lace—the way it sways in the breeze, delicate yet wild, like lace woven by the wind. You’ve probably seen it along country roadsides or scattered across summer meadows: clusters of tiny white blossoms forming umbrella-like blooms, quietly thriving under the sun. It’s a flower that speaks of both resilience and romance—two traits I try to capture in my work every time I preserve it in resin.

But did you know this lovely wildflower has a story?

Legend has it that Queen Anne of England, known for her fine lace-making skills, pricked her finger while working, and a single drop of blood stained the lace. That drop is said to be represented by the tiny purple floret often found at the center of the bloom—something you’ll notice if you look closely. Nature’s little signature.

As an artist, I’m drawn to Queen Anne’s Lace for its symbolism as much as its beauty. It represents sanctuary, protection, and delicate strength. In my resin jewelry, I preserve this fleeting bloom to turn it into something lasting. Whether it’s framed in silver or glowing softly against a colored mica background, each piece holds the spirit of summer and the story of a wildflower that grew exactly where it pleased.

You’ll find Queen Anne’s Lace featured in many of my pieces—especially in my Born of Wildflowers birth month collection, where it’s paired with soft mica colors to match each month’s floral meaning. It’s also a staple in my Meadowlight summer line, alongside other blooms like daisies and Black Eyed Susans.

There’s something grounding about wearing a piece of the wild, something that connects us back to the land, to memory, to quiet walks and soft sunlight. Queen Anne’s Lace may be humble, but it carries a quiet power—one I’m honored to share through my jewelry.
