I love a good TOP 10 list. You know. The year-end compliations that list the best of, most favorite, or hottest sellers. I think these tap into my need to reflect back onto recent experiences and changes in my life as one year ends and another begins.
So I was extra curious to look back through the 2021 sales in my shop to see exactly what YOU liked and purchased. This way I could find out which of my creations were embraced by the creatives. While searching for these particular products was in large part due to plain old curiosity, I knew that knowing this informtion could also help inform what products I bring to market in 2022.
Before I unveil the findings, a few thoughts:
--It is not always the newest and shiniest product that is the most popular. Proof positive that when you design something that really connects with the creative community, that product stands the test of time.
--My peeps still love colors that I categorize as Vintage Earthy Grunge. These are the colors that fall in the range of tea, coffee, black, sepia, ochre and rust. Throw in some cream and some gold and the earthy palette is complete.
--Mark Making is here to stay. At least for now. While my stamp and stencils designs with circles had been the most popular in the past, organic and geometric marks now seem to have earned the top spot.
