Barack Obama has quite a fan following on Etsy.com, a network of online stores for crafty people selling their own creations. Obama appears on everything from [earrings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-art-of-adornment) and [bracelets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/juicy-couture-bracelet-kit) to baby clothes.

There are even eco-friendly Obama inspired [recycled t-shirt skirt](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/basket-sculptures)!

The most common items include pins and paintings, including the fun, cartoon-style portrait featured in the gallery.

**Implications** - Quirky crafts that make the most of pop cultural icons have the advantage of appealing to the default base of consumers that are already fans of that figure or organization. A little ingenuity can go a long way when designing products that make the most of contemporary society, and it is oftentimes essential for sparking innovation.
