Saguaro Cactus Graphic Long Sleeve Tee — Minimal Desert Botanical Shirt, THE STORE by avalove

Description:

Saguaro Cactus are printed on the front and back of this super soft basic sweatshirt.

"The Tohono O'odham people consider the saguaro cactus to be a sacred embodiment of their ancestors” Origin story: “According to Tohono O'odham mythology, the first saguaro was created when a young woman sank into the earth and emerged as a giant cactus."

Cactus are said to neutralize any negative energy and create a barrier of protection.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Vibe: We are all connected.  Sacred Protector.

Soft, breathable long sleeve with a hand-drawn cactus print that feels quietly adventurous. The lightweight jersey drapes easily—layer it under a jacket for cool mornings or wear solo when the sun warms up. The subtle, distressed cactus sits front-and-back like a little desert memory; it’s understated, earthy, and honest. Designed for people who favor effortless style and nature-inspired details, this piece moves from weekend hikes to coffee-shop afternoons without fuss. The retail fit and true-to-size cut keep the silhouette clean. Small design touches like a ribbed knit collar, shoulder tape, and tear-away label mean it wears well and stays comfortable through repeated adventures.

  This piece is made by THE STORE by avalove.  This is a constellation line of avalove! 

 

Poetry can be expressed in many ways.  Verbally, visually through the use of metaphor.  Here we can float every day in the clouds of words or images on ready to wear. 

 

THE STORE by avalove was created as a secondary or, constellation line of the handmade original avalove, and is a sketchbook of my designs from the past twenty years of designing avalove as well as many new design sketches. 

 

These designs are designed by me and not made by me.  They are custom-made as you order them and because of this I would allow a week or so for the item to be made and shipped to you.

 

This is a terrific way to express all of those creative ideas I have that it's just impossible to produce each and every one but this way we can make a lot of them and explore new concepts like this with you! 

 

Also, this means I will always have sizes, I will always have all season, and you can access my library of designs from the past 20 years of making avalove as well as be the first to try new avalove experimental pieces.

 

It's a wonderful way to share so much more of what avalove designs and also a way I can have these designs always available for you.  

 

I invite you to enjoy this special avalove project!  It's so exciting to be able to create something and have it be available right away to you!

Enjoy my sketchbook of dreams!

 

 

Smile,
