🎉 Behind the Moo: Hilda’s Birthday Collection

Some collections start with a color palette. This one started with a cow.

Hilda Highland trotted into the sketchbook with a crooked party hat and a whole lot of attitude, and I knew she wasn’t just a character—she was a vibe. She became the face of this birthday-themed collection: joyful, a little chaotic, and full of Appalachian charm.

This collection is for the ones who celebrate everything. The ones who hang streamers for no reason. Who send birthday cards late but with love. Who believe in mismatched confetti and heartfelt nonsense.

Every piece was designed to feel like a party you actually want to attend—handmade, a little silly, and full of warmth. No glitter bombs, no perfection. Just delight, surprise, and a wink of storytelling in every detail.

🐮 Why Hilda?

She’s not polished. She’s not symmetrical. She’s confident, ridiculous, and deeply lovable. That’s the energy I wanted to build around. Hilda reminds me that celebration doesn’t have to be fancy, it just has to be real.

💌 What’s Next?

Honestly? I’m not sure. Hilda might not be back anytime soon, and that’s okay. She showed up, threw the party, and gave this collection a heartbeat. Now I am getting ready to move forward—with clarity, with joy, and with a little less glitter in my hair.

Thanks for being part of this. It means the world.

Did she make you laugh? Feel seen? Want to throw a party for no reason? I’d love to hear what you think—drop a comment, send a note, or just holler into the void. Hilda would approve either way.
