Little Beetle Designs
Meet the Maker
Hello and thank you for your visit! At Little Beetle Designs, we believe in creating with purpose, heart, and a whole lot of whimsy. We are a family-operated, Latina-owned, and teen-led micro-business based in the heart of rural South Florida, inspired daily by the plants, animals, and natural beauty around us. Our creativity is also sparked by the magic of books, the rhythm of music, the art of fiber, and our deep love for all things quirky and handmade.
We craft a variety of goods that are as gentle on the planet as they are joyful to use. From reversible totes made with salvaged fabrics to plush stuffies stitched with vintage or organic yarn, our work centers on reuse, sustainability, and thoughtful design.
We’re intentional about the materials we choose:
Eco-friendly paints for our clay pieces and pins
High-quality Czech glass beads—a renewable material that can be endlessly recycled without losing quality
Repurposed, salvaged, or organic fibers whenever possible
While most of our materials are earth-friendly, we’re transparent about the few that aren’t (like vinyl stickers or acrylic beads), and we're always on the lookout for more sustainable alternatives as they become available.
Giving back is also core to who we are. Every three months, we spotlight a special product collection and donate 50% of the profits to a nonprofit or animal sanctuary that aligns with our values.
We may be small, but we aim to sprinkle kindness, creativity, and consciousness into the world—one handmade creation at a time. Thank you for supporting our journey and helping us make a meaningful impact, both near and far.
Stay tuned as we continue to expand our collection with even more unique and exciting products!
How it’s Made
Each clay charm begins with rolling out the clay and hand-cutting each piece with precision. After cutting, the charms must dry for at least 24 hours to ensure they're fully set. Once dry, the hand-painting process begins. I carefully paint the design on one side, then let it dry before painting the other side. After both sides are painted and completely dry, I apply an acrylic medium to seal the artwork, allowing time for drying between coats and sides. Each layer requires about 12 hours to dry before moving on to the next step. The final touch is varnishing, which adds a protective layer and enhances water resistance (though the pieces should never be submerged in water). The varnish requires about 6 hours to dry between coats and sides. It's a true labor of love, with each piece taking time, care, and attention to detail at every stage of the process.
