DIY Trend: Shark

Shark Hat

Hello Everyone,

As you all know by now, shark week is upon us. I'll admit that I don't watch that much of shark week but I did happen to see Sharknado 2 (which was funny/ridiculous). Needless to say, you have probably see several shark inspired projects in the past few weeks. 

Since every year shark week is becoming more popular, I think its safe to say that (at least during shark week) sharks have become a ''trend''.

I'll be honest, this trend is one that I really love! From marshmallow pops to flip flops it amazing to see what some crafters can make with just the inspiration of a shark. For example, those sharks hats above are just adorable! It makes me wish that my school's mascot was a shark so I could wear them to games or something. I mean, who doesn't want a shark hat? 

In a weird way I think shark week has made sharks more ''lovable'' or at least more understandable. Discovery Channel should definitely come up with more animal theme weeks. I mean who wouldn't want a fox week or quokka week (which is the happiest animal in the world). Ok, my idea of animal theme weeks may be cute and fuzzy but I still think they should happen. 

Even though I love this shark trend, I have never made any shark inspired projects. So next year I will definitely come up with a shark project to post on the blog. 

What are your thoughts? Do like this trend or are you not a shark fan? Also what animal theme week would you like to see? Let me know in the comments below or leave your thoughts on the blog's new facebook page.
