A Little Birdie Told Me...

As part of my research, I'm always on the lookout for emerging trends in interior design and furnishings.   A while back I noticed that overseas the emerging trend was "Birds".   I started creating artworks featuring them and also getting in new product lines to compliment the artworks.





The other day I was walking through some retail stores and spied many new items such as mini bird houses, bird cake stands, wooden bird signs etc.   So the trend has finally arrived in Australia.   No longer do cute little birds just symbolise spring in home decor.  Year round they add character to home furnishings.

Like Owls before them, delicate little birds are sprouting up on bed linen, clothing, dinner set patterns, stationary and wallpaper.  Not only are they whimsical, but they appeal to all age groups. 








Calming and very cute, birds never go out of style.
