Our merchant team is very used to traveling all over the country to spot trends and get inspiration for future Cracker Barrel collections. Last weekend, they were lucky enough to have the trends come to them at the Country Living Fair in Lebanon, Tennessee, conveniently close to our home office. We love front door décor, whether the door is attached to a house or not. Burlap accents continue to be a trend we’re loving, and this mail bin is the perfect functional and/or decorative front door addition.

The natural fibers of these wicker and rope baskets make the perfect canvas to display a pretty bouquet or an unexpected air plant.

Weathered metals (both real and a little purposeful beating), weathered wood, natural cotton, and tobacco baskets fit into the farmhouse look that’s so popular right now. Incidentally, we happen to love the farmhouse look that’s so popular right now.

Greenery under glass is a spring trend we’re seeing, and we love these little robin’s nest accents.

What a fun way to make a plant display (x3)!

This lamp shade breathes new life into heirloom lace or doilies.

Brightly colored patch work and whole cloth quilts are a classic favorite with country charm.

Horses and lake-themed decor are two of our favorite collections.

We’ve been spotting Aztec prints all over the place, both in textiles and apparel.

And loving all the fun colors in these boots and shoes! We can’t wait for next year’s fair.
