Before we leave our 2011 SpaFinder Spa Trend Forecast behind, let’s review the “Hot/Getting Hotter” list. We always have a lot of fun creating these as they become a short, handy way for people to get a sense of what’s in our trend report. It also gives us a chance to throw in a few things that maybe didn’t make our top 10 list but caught our attention nevertheless. And I have also found that our hot/hotter list often contains some seeds of trends for the following year. Hint….there is one on this list that became a 2012 trend. And speaking of 2012 spa trend predictions – those have just come out and will all be listed in my next blog post!
