We have already written about and shared ideas for working with many of the trends driving products shown at CHA 2014. That’s because we are always watching fashion, home decor, gift, pattern and surface trends and using what we see to inspire our articles here. Scroll down to find our articles on working with gold, squares, vellum, crafty crossovers and more below.
Marie-Pierre Capistran | reporting from CHA
Our Creative Team member Marie-Pierre Capistran was at CHA 2014, and every single photo I see makes me smile — not for the product I’m seeing — but because of the smile on her face in every single photo and for the affection I see the “industry-biz” folks showing her. Go, Marie!!!
