Ondertussen is het bijna 2013 en zie je nog steeds, en steeds meer uilen! Ook bij mij in huis kom je ze tegen. Al eerder liet ik je onze nieuwe huisvriend zien en ik kreeg een heel lief klein magneet-uiltje van Stephanie. De grote broer van Stephanie’s uiltje staat al een tijdje op de kamer van baby B. en zijn eerste eigen post was een mooie ansichtkaart, van (tante) R., met daarop, een uil! Bij het speelhoekje van peutermeisje E. hangt al een jaar een stoffen uiltje (uit de kerstcollectie 2011 van Intratuin) en ook IKEA doet mee met de uilentrend. Afgelopen maandag kocht ik daar een setje kaarten waarvan de leukste die met de uil is en ook leuke ‘paperclips’… Ik zeg, oehoe!

One of the world’s most renowned trendwatchers comes from
The Netherlands, Lidewij (Li) Edelkoort. For years she’s been spotting trends, she
makes trendbooks and she works with all kinds of companies to develop new
products and collections. A while ago someone tweeted this link.
For autumn/winter 2011 Lidewij forecasted a ‘bird trend’ which would last quite
some time and she named the owl as the ultimate trend bird. Too bad Justin
Bieber has an owl tattoo now… (sorry, I’m not a fan!)
It’s almost 2013 and you still see owls, and even more of them are popping up! In my house there are several. Earlier I showed you our ‘house owl’ and Stephanie sent me a sweet, little owl magnet. In baby B.’s bedroom lives little magnet owl’s big brother and baby B.’s first mail was a nice owl postcard sent to him by his aunt R.! There’s a small fabric owl in toddler girl’s play area (it’s from last year’s Christmas collection of Dutch garden centre Intratuin) and also IKEA joins the owl trend. Last Monday I bought a set of postcards of which the nicest one is the card with the owl and also nice ‘paperclips’… I say, tu-whu!

Love this owl! Well it's funny, I've had a bit of an owl obsession for years and then, as you said, the owl thing went 'mainstream' (hehe :) a few years ago. Love them!
