Searching the Web for Inspiration

by Chris of Christine Marie Art


One of my guilty pleasures is visiting websites for artistic eye candy. Decor8 is one of my favorites, and of course the trend section on ETSY. Even though we're artists and not copycats, it is helpful to see what's out there, what's new, and what the hot trends are. So if you'd like to do some of this "important research" yourself, check out the current and forecast trends on the following websites:

COLOR
Pantone is by far my favorite color website, with upcoming color trends in fashion and home decor. I also love Colour Lovers, which has trends in colors and patterns. While you're there, check out their blog.

DESIGN
Design Sponge is SO fun to browse through, and has the neatest "mini-trend" section.

BUYING
Decorative Accessories website has loads of new product previews, but the best part of the site (for me) is the "on-trend" section because it showcases the hot, new selling products on the market.

JUST TRENDS

Beercan Butterflies and Recycled Popcorn Bags...who would've thunk?

How about you? Do you have any favorite trend sites?
