Little Birthstone Pets - Hand-Painted Needlepoint Canvas

Little Birthstone Pets

A tiny, nostalgic needlepoint design inspired by the iconic birthstone charm necklaces of the early 2000s - but for the pets who hold a piece of our hearts.

Each Little Birthstone Pet is painted by hand on premium 18-mesh needlepoint canvas and made to order in the birthstone you choose.

Designed for stitching into ornaments, bag charms, and keepsake minis, these collectible canvases are perfect for celebrating beloved pets, gifting to animal lovers, or creating modern heirlooms that honor the furry members of the family.

Choose Your Birthstone

Select your birthstone from the dropdown above. Your canvas will be painted in a coordinating color palette inspired by that stone.

Because each piece is hand-painted, every Little Birthstone Pet is slightly unique - just like the pet it represents.

Add a Coordinating Thread Kit (Optional)

Add a complete thread kit for $12 and start stitching right away.

Each kit includes:
• All specialty threads needed for your chosen birthstone
• Coordinating accent colors
• A pre-selected palette designed to match your canvas

Perfect for beginners, gift-giving, or anyone who wants a stress-free stitching experience.

Background thread not included. For the background, we recommend Essentials or DMC Pearl Cotton #3 as easy, budget-friendly options. If you love a luxe finish, Pepper Pot is also a beautiful upgrade.
