This clover mandala packs in three lucky symbols at once: clovers, horseshoes and lots of hearts. Together they form a big rosette that looks like a blooming flower. Print it free and share some luck with this New Year's coloring page.
Why this lucky rosette is so fun
Right in the center blooms a tiny flower made of hearts, surrounded by a ring of horseshoes with little nail holes. Eight clovers are spaced evenly around it, with small hearts floating in between. The big outer petals are filled with zigzags, stripes and arches, and each rounded outer arch holds a heart. The shape is more flower than circle, which makes it stand out.

Why are clovers and horseshoes lucky?
Most clovers have three leaves – a four-leaf clover is rare, which is why finding one feels so special. The horseshoe is a lucky charm too: it's often hung with the open end up so the luck doesn't spill out. Not everyone does it the same way, though – traditions vary. In Germany, people like to give lucky charms on New Year's Eve to wish each other a good year. And hearts simply stand for love and friendship.
