Camo Is Always In Style

Tony Humphreys of Lewiston figures he can put camo on just about anything. That includes gun stocks, motorcycles, computers, bows, animal skulls and toilet seats. At least those are some of the things he's decorated with a variety of camouflage patterns. Humphreys and his wife, Trina, own a business called The Big Dipper, Creative Camo Decorations, that specializes in putting a layer of camo or other printed films on anything with a hard surface. Known as transfer printing or film dipping, the process is becoming popular with hunters and outdoor enthusiasts looking to camouflage their equipment or just add a level of style to any item. The Humphreys are one of the dozens of vendors at the Inland Northwest Outdoor Show at the Nez Perce County Fairgrounds. The show opened Friday afternoon and the Big Dipper booth was attracting attention. "It's pretty cool. I've never seen anything like it," said Randy Parsons of Clarkston/Eric Barker, Lewiston Tribune. More here. (Lewiston Tribune Photo)

Question: Do you ever wear camo or decorate personal possessions with it?
