Lunar New Year and Valentine’s Day
St. Valentine offers us an interesting twist this winter- the arrival of Chinese New Year celebrating the year of the Tiger beginning on February 14th, 2010.
Since red is the predominant color used in Lunar New Year celebrations, the cross-over product opportunities are infinite. One vendor stands out in the most recent markets. Cody Foster + Company coincidentally based in Valentine offered up a very thoughtful and well designed assortment of chinoiserie ornaments in the late summer Gift shows. Of particular interest were the pagodas and lanterns.
As Easters and Halloweens past have illustrated, ‘ornaments’ are no longer a once a year purchase occasion.
So save your markdown dollars for other categories since this collection will have a full-priced life after December 26th. Help unleash the tiger in all your customers this coming Valentine’s Day.
