I arrived home today from CHA Summer in Rosemont, IL. The show was a bit smaller than in the past, but I still spotted what I would call a few "trends" very quickly! Here is just one thing that stood out quickly!
Ever see Alfred Hitchcock's "The Birds" - If it scared you don't read further..... because THE BIRDS are definitely HERE! Birds, birds everywhere - and birdhouses, and birdcages, birdbaths, nests....... EVERYWHERE - Rubber stamps, die cuts, patterned papers, dimensional embellishments, chipboard shapes, wooden birds, painting sets, stencils, fabric - a bird of some sort either on a product or on a booth decoration in some sort. See for yourself a few of the flock I captured on film.
