Designs Sold - May 2025

I thought it would be interesting to keep a more visual record of the designs that sold each month. Starting from now, I cannot be bothered going the whole way back to the start!

May 2025 has been a particularly slow month with 5 sales. I have heard other designers on social media talking about a big drop in sales. So, I am staying positive! If you are just starting out waiting for your first sale, you've got this! I am still nowhere near the bonus commission levels like some other designers are, but one day hopefully.

So in order of purchase,

Art Deco Scalloped Flowers Purple Dark Medium 



Watercolour Bunnies in Firework Colours Large 



Art Deco Scalloped Flowers Blue Gold on White Large




Light Blue Solid 86B3D3 



(L) Preppy Modern Floral with Bows 


See something you like? All the images and headings are links to the design on spoonflower.

Do you sell solid colours? I don't have many, just those that go with collections of designs that I have made. But more often than not the solid colours sell on their own without any of the coordinating designs being purchased with them. Maybe it is worth making a collection of beautiful solid colours too?

Welcome to my Spoonflower Journey

Welcome! I am starting this blog to share my journey into surface design in April of 2022, predominantly focusing on Spoonflower. I had so many questions when I first started that I struggled to find answers for. The most pressing question was, does anyone actually make any money selling designs on Spoonflower? So in the interests of transparency and sharing information I am planning to document how my earnings are progressing (slowly!) since my start in Spoonflower.

My Spoonflower Design Challenge Results

Update: There is a new number 1! You can check it out here:  Art Deco Scallops Dots Circles Blue So in the interests of honesty and sharing, here are my top 5 and bottom 5 design challenge entries. With the exception of 5, including the very first as a rather disappointed me deleted them long ago. I have never placed in the top 10 but am proud to have made to top 100 four times...so far! I have a total of 61 design challenge entries over the last three years. So I feel another spreadsheet coming on! The simplest way to decide the rankings would be placings, but I don't think getting 50th out of 100 designs is quite the same as getting 50th out of 1000. So, I will have to crack out the math and give each design a ranking. Luckily as much as I love surface design, I also LOVE math! I have not used the vote counts to decide rankings and I will follow up with a post with a full table of all results. Let's get straight into it! Top 5 Design Placings Why not start with what I am prou...

Are Spoonflower Design Challenges Worth it?

Without beating around the bush...YES!! The design challenges are definitely worth it. Even if it can be humbling to see a design you thought would do really well...well flop. There is still so much to gain from joining in the challenges. At the end of this post you will see a table showing all my design entries in order from best to worst performing over the past three years. I have used the placing and total entries for the challenge to give each design a rank. The higher the rank the better the design faired. Similar to a percentage or percentile if a design's rank is 60 it means it scored higher than 60% of all designs. For any fellow math lovers who want the calculations, the top design Serene Soft Green Cream Waves placed 27th out of 1298. So the calculation I used was 100-(27/1298*100) = 97.92. Now moving right along!
