Smartdeco on trend for 2014 Poppy Bags ‘on trend’ and in retail display For this year and into 2015,

Home and gift retail experts have identified three key themes: ‘A New Industrial Age’, ‘Folklore and Storytelling’ and the blurred lines between ‘Digital and Reality’. Read the Buyer’s Guide

Before the trade show, SmartDeco was approached by retail experts from Metamorphosis, who identified our range as representing a key retail and style trend for 2014. They highlighted the Poppy Upcycled Denim Cross-Body Bag for use in their presentations to the show audience.

The Poppy Bag was selected for a display of on-trend items set inside larger than life size 3D books, each representing a key theme, in a prominent location of Spring Fair – the Hall 5 Gift Box area. This display presented key on-trend exhibitor products for 2014, which the speakers Ellie Kidson and Eve Reid of Metamorphosis discussed in their talks.

76% of shoppers never speak to sales assistant – that means good visual merchandising is not just important, it’s your life-line.

Merchandising experts, the Metamorphosis Group have been giving visitors to this year’s Spring Fair 2014, a masterclass in the TOP 10 steps to visual retail success

The display looked stunning. We feel we too could benefit from their advice after seeing the Poppy Bags displayed like this and will be featuring a few visual merchandising tips soon.

SmartDeco's 'Life's a Beach' Deckchair and Seaside Lampshade chosen for exhibition in the entrance to Hall 7 (Contemporary Home and Gifts) at Spring Fair International 2014

SmartDeco exhibited at Spring Fair International 2014 in Birmingham, where all kinds of retailers – department store chains, boutiques, gift shops, distributors and agents from all around the UK and the world come to meet suppliers and manufacturers.

SmartDeco’s Life’s a Beach’ Deckchair and Seaside Lampshade by British designer Jacqueline Hammond, were chosen for the Product Showcase in the entrance to Hall 7 (Contemporary Home and Gifts) at Spring Fair International 2014.

Spring Fair is “the largest trade exhibition in the UK and Europe’s biggest presentation of trend driven new products” so it was fantastic to have my designs featured in such a prominent position, great to know that every visitor coming into Hall 6 and 7 would have seen the deckchair. Although I’m not sure it was so easy to find the Smart Deco stand at Spring Fair! It is a vast show and we were tucked away rather than on a corner like last year, so if you were at Spring Fair and were looking for that beach deckchair you saw on the way in we were here on Stand 6R43!

Happy Customers

It’s great to get feedback from customers. This lady sent in these photos of the SmartDeco Poppy lampshades we made with a silver lining for her new lamps. “They are lovely. I need to play around with position and different strength bulbs for mood lighting, but very pleased that I am the proud owner of two pieces of Jacqueline hammond living art in my home.”
