Did you know that dragonflies were one of the first winged insects to evolve, approximately 300 million years ago? From summer essentials to must-have accessories, we’re taking a look at Sophie’s top picks from the collection.
Dragonfly Picnic Bag
This picnic bag is perfect for summer days out to the park, beach or you could even enjoy in the garden at home. Pop in your favourite sandwiches, snacks and drinks and head out for a fun-filled day, you might even spot some dragonflies whilst on your family picnic. The extra-thick insulation makes it practical for the summer months and will keep your food and drink cool. Pair perfectly with our dragonfly melamine and picnic blanket for the complete picnic set.
Dragonfly Wash Bag Box
Excellent for storing your toiletries, makeup or accessories, this wash bag features a box design providing plenty of space for your essentials. We love the three delicate dragonflies that sit on the front and the inspiration words ‘Be A Dreamer’ are written on the zip. Made from faux leather and faux suede, the stylish design is sure to complement any dressing room or bathroom. For a wonderful gift idea, fill this wash bag with their favourite pamper goodies, a Sophie Allport sleep mask and of course some mouth-watering chocolates.
Dragonfly Ironing Board Cover
Inject a touch of nature into your home with this ironing board cover, which we hope will make those chores a little bit more bearable over the summer months. The front features a tie drawstring so it can be pulled tight around your ironing board and there is also a 6mm padded foam which makes it perfect for steam or dry ironing. Pair perfectly with the dragonfly peg bag to complete the seasonal style this summer.

Everyone deserves to pop up their feet, sit back, relax and enjoy a fresh cup of coffee or mug of tea. Made from fine bone china this beautiful mug is covered in Sophie Allport’s dragonflies, featuring intricate details of their slender bodies and narrow wings.
