Getting ideas from trends

If you are at a creative deadlock when it comes to what to make that will sell, take a look at the current trends. You need to watch the award shows for fashion ideas. The SAG awards, the Oscars, the Golden Globe are just a few of the main ones. Become a people watcher at those shows. It is not so much what the big name stars on the stage are wearing as much as what the audience is wearing.

Take notice of the little extras they have on their gowns that make them special. Can you make that item? Can you market it?

You can also get some great ideas from the latest movies. Blockbuster hits usually turn out to be great producers of Halloween costume ideas for that year. People often copy the way a home looks in a movie if it has an item or theme that they like - cash in on it.

To get some great ideas you just only have to look around you.
