In my last year's trend forecast blog post,
"My Trend Forecast for 2011...Nature in Handcrafts"
(from 2/7/11 and found here) I said we'd be seeing plenty of antlered motif items including stag, buck, deer, and the like throughout 2011.
Now I'd like to take a glance back and show some great examples of how these themes came through in handcrafts and home decor throughout the last year up to now.

I haven't had time yet to write my trend forecast for 2012 (I will soon!) but as you can see, the antler theme is still going strong. What do you think?

DeleteTo think my husband was chic/ahead of his time. I was the mean wife who told him any antlers were going to be hung on the porch, not in my house!
ReplyDeleteLOL :)
DeleteAntlers are definitely popular these days! I especially like that one with the silhouette on salvaged wood.
ReplyDeleteThat's neat isn't it? So creative!
