# Cupid Pinion Clothespins The Wing Clip by Lufdesign Can Make Lightweight Items Airborne By Amelia Roblin | Published 2011-10-15 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wing-clip-by-lufdesign References: [lufdesign](http://www.lufdesign.com/products/view.php?seqno=253) The conventional wooden clothespin can perform scores of convenient little tasks, so it hasn't hurt to give it a makeover to create the Wing Clip by Lufdesign. These absolutely adorable tiny clasps come in pairs, just as wings should. They've been molded to assume a soft and rounded cartoony aesthetic and are available in bright pink and yellow in addition to the angelic white. It would truly be a shame to waste these winsome fasteners on laundry alone, so the designer recommends showing them off within your [interior decoration](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pin-sconce) and as handy implements in the kitchen. A Wing Clip by Lufdesign would make an excellent [chip clip](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pivot-x-carabiner), [purse clutch](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/elegant-hook-options) and photo hanger. If you wanted to, I'm sure you could even incorporate these as fashion accessories. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 0.8/10 - Popularity: 12% | Activity: 4% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Cartoony Aesthetics:** Opportunity for designers to create functional items with appealing aesthetics by using playful, cartoonish designs. - **Multipurpose Tools:** As consumers look for more versatile tools, businesses can create converters to transform everyday items into something more. - **Fashion-forward Accessories:** The trend of fashion-forward accessories creates an opportunity for businesses to make clothespins a fashion statement. ### Where This Applies - **Home Goods:** Companies that sell home goods can create functional items with playful, cartoonish designs like Cupid Pinion Clothespins for indoor decoration. - **Kitchenware:** With consumers looking for versatile tools, kitchenware manufacturers can create multi-functional items such as chip clips made from Cupid Pinion Clothespins. - **Fashion Accessories:** With consumers looking for fashion-forward accessories, clothing brands can incorporate Cupid Pinion Clothespins as fashion accessories in their clothing line or as a standalone item. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Note Clip Organizers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/note-clip.md) - [Expanding Garment Hangers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flip-hanger.md) - [Clipping Pen Devices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-clippen.md) - [Quirky Structural Clothes Hangers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hang-we.md) - [Winged Storage Boxes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flutterbox.md) - [Glasses Holding Loops](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/on-the-wing.md) - [Clothespin-Inspired Mechanical Pencils](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pentapa.md) - [Crinkle Fry-Inspired Clips](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fries-clips.md) - [Clippable Furniture Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/clippable-furniture.md)
