Acanthus 2012

This has been such a fantastic year for Acanthus Apparel! We put out 9 new designs on some great new clothing styles, started the dog line and have the 1st item in our new kids line out. We also did a lot of traveling to conventions to promote Acanthus. I can't wait to see what happens in 2013! Joshua and I have a lot of great ideas! Thanks for all of your support!

New Hoodie Dresses

I put a couple new hoodie dresses out on Etsy and at Vitae. I only made a small number of each but will make more if people love them. These hoodie dresses are so comfortable and perfect to throw on with leggings and boots.




Backless Tee's on Etsy

For all of our friends that live in warmer climates we have decided to print some of our spring/summer favorites and some new styles for Etsy. Just because we are freezing in Iowa doesn't mean everyone else shouldn't enjoy a backless tee or tank top.

We printed a new backless tee with our Sailor Girl design. It's printed in black on a heather oatmeal burnout fabric.


We also reprinted this popular Spaceman backless tee.


Both are available on Etsy right now. Tank tops coming soon!

Sailor Girls, Panthers and Classic Acanthus

Sorry about the lack of posts lately. I've still been busy restocking and adding new items at Vitae and to Etsy. 

I love this feather and arrow design and I hadn't printed it for a while so I brought it back on some off the shoulder sweatshirts.  I think I will have to print it on some t-shirts next!


While waiting for the red hoodies to come back in stock I ran across these color block hoodies perfect for the sailor girl design.


I get a lot of requests for this black on black combo. I printed a men's 50/50 tee with the panther and a unisex hoodie with the panther. 


Another hooded scarf! This one features the bee design on the hood.


I will have more newness next week! More hooded dresses and introducing Acanthus Kids!
