# Harry Potter Inspired Owl Ornaments Hooters for Christmas By Elsa Blaine | Published 2008-12-04 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hooters-for-christmas-harry-potter-inspired-tree-ornaments References: [trendhunter](http://www.trendhunter.com) Owls are very hot for Christmas decor this year. That’s right, not eagles, doves or swans, but the carnivore that hunts the night for fresh meat. Sure, I thought, and then I went shopping. Christmas trees are littered with the swivel-headed, big-eyed bird ornaments. Most of them are the snowy owl variety which I can understand somewhat—they are a rather dramatic looking white creature. Perhaps it’s a result of Harry Potter’s magical snowy owl Hedwig. Who am I kidding? This must be the explanation for the abundance of these hooters. The ornaments here are from (in order of appearance), Cannon Falls, Smith & Hawken, Plow & Hearth, Heliotrope, the Squirrel Store, Target, Kurt Adler and Christmas Forever. The adorable Christmas stocking is from the Tweet Baby Design’s [Etsy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sustainable-christmas-tree-alternative) shop. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.9/10 - Popularity: 61% | Activity: 17% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Home](https://www.trendhunter.com/home) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Owl-themed Christmas Decor:** Opportunity for retailers to capitalize on the trend of owl-themed Christmas ornaments and decorations. - **Pop Culture Influence on Decor:** Potential for creating merchandise inspired by popular franchises, like Harry Potter, that have influenced decor trends. - **Nature-inspired Ornaments:** Opportunity to appeal to consumers who are drawn to nature-inspired ornaments, such as owl ornaments. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Retail:** Retailers can take advantage of the owl-themed Christmas decor trend to boost sales during the holiday season. - **Entertainment Merchandise:** The pop culture influence on decor presents a potential opportunity for the entertainment merchandise industry to create licensed products that align with popular franchises. - **Home Decor:** The nature-inspired ornaments trend opens up opportunities for home decor businesses to offer a wide range of nature-themed decorations for various occasions. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Novelty Supermarket Ornaments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aldis-novelty-baubles.md) - [Branded Christmas Ornaments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spicy-chicken-sandwich-ornament.md) - [Mid-Century-Inspired Paper House Ornaments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/paper-christmas-ornament.md) - [Festive Tree-Inspired Mugs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/christmas-tree-mugs.md) - [Authentically Themed Christmas Ornaments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/old-world-christmas.md) - [Complimentary Fried Chicken Ornaments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fried-chicken-ornament.md) - [Pride-Honoring Bird Figurines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pride-birds.md) - [DIY Embroidery Ornaments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/diy-stitched-ornament-kits.md) - [Holiday Charm Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pandoras-moveable-holiday-charm.md)
