Turkey or Trendy? #1: Put a Bird on It

The first item on our "Turkey or Trendy?" list is the design trend that got it all started: Put a Bird on It!

Birds are available on a number of items, perhaps more so now that Portlandia pointed the trend out.

You can find birds in fashion:
Pins and Needles Twin Sparrows Over-the-Shoulder Tee, $32 at Urban Outfitters.

Lovely Mod Birds Necklace, $21.50 from Etsy seller Lana0Crystal.

You can find them on home decor:
Owl Lamp, $39.99 at Target.com.

Lather, Rinse, Retweet Shower Curtain Rings, $16.99 at ModCloth.com.

In body art:

And in DIY projects and crafts:

So, what do you think, is it time for the fashion and interior design trend of "Putting a Bird on It" to fly the nest?
