Looking Forward to Folklore

Folklore is one of many many trends for the summer of 2009. I have been spotting it in design magazines, music and DIY projects. According to Phillip Fimanno of Trend Union, 2009 trends are grouped into 16 forms of expression. "A decade ago, It may have been six. All have a common theme, but the greater number shows our yearning for diversity." This is brilliant, and yet another reason I love Invitation Consultants. With over 8,000 invitations to offer, We have something for everyone. If you happen to be inspired by folklore like myself look for bright color, simplicity with layers and excellent craftsmanship. This folklore spread from the September issue of Country Home Magazine uses pops of acid yellow flowers for a modern update. Images: clockwise from the top left Country Home Magazine pgs 92 and 95.
