This nut-themed bowl shows your house guests that you love to chow down just as much as a squirrel does. This white resin [decorative bowl](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/circuit) may be simple, but it's also suave and a great eye-catching piece that's sure to grab people's attention. It's nice to see a squirrel freely giving out nuts instead of hoarding them all to himself. It's an undeniably cute decoration for any home. Even if you're not totally sold about nuts, you can feel free to put whatever you please on display. Whether it be candy, your car keys or loose change. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 0.6/10 - Popularity: 6% | Activity: 3% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Kitchen](https://www.trendhunter.com/kitchen) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Nut-themed Decor:** Opportunity to create more decorative items with a nut or squirrel theme. - **Whimsical Houseware:** Opportunity to create more fun and playful designs for home decor. - **Functional Decor:** Opportunity to create decorative items with practical uses, such as a nut bowl that doubles as decor. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Home Decor & Furnishings:** Opportunity to create more nut-themed and whimsical decorations for the home. - **Kitchenware:** Opportunity to incorporate playful designs into kitchenware, such as nut-themed serving plates or bowls. - **Gifts, Novelties & Souvenirs:** Opportunity to create novelty items, such as squirrel-shaped nutcrackers, that appeal to those with a love for nuts or squirrels. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Targeted Bird Seed Blends](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cool-birds.md) - [Holiday-Themed Nut Snacks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/planters-products.md) - [Artisan Ingredient Marketplaces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nutterie.md) - [Springy Safety-Focused Nutcrackers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/silicone-nutcracker.md) - [Edible Holiday Decorations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/edible-holiday-decoration.md) - [Versatile Nut-Based Recipe Toppers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crunchy-nut-toppers.md) - [Cocktail-Inspired Pecans Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pecans-cocktail.md) - [Festive Nutcracker Desserts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/specially-selected-hazel-nutcracker.md) - [Stackable Rotating Snack Bowls](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tapas-snack-sphere.md)
