Styles of the Times

The winter markets were represented by sketchbooks of The Proud Earth (earth tones and natural motifs), Marvelous Metals (brass and gold finishes) and Purple Passion (lavender and purple).

Garden themes are abundant as retailers and consumers dive into gardening. Spring markets are highlighted by sketchbooks with an editor's choice of items as well as Lodge Looks, Antiquities Revisited, Gardens Galore and Contemporary Color.

Western themes are popular, as found in collections by Lexington Furniture and GuildMaster. October sketchbooks feature The Cowboy Frontier (rustic lodge/Western look), Elegant Garden (floral at its finest), Tribal Tributes and Beaux Arts Traditions.
