2020 Craft and Color Trends from PrintWorks

Each year comes new and exciting craft and color trends and 2020 is no different! Here are some of the popular trends that we are following and getting lots of inspiration from (especially when it ties into our paper!).

Hand Stitching/Embroidery

Various needlecrafts such as cross stitching and embroidery are seeing significant growth in popularity. Not only are they easy to learn and relaxing, but you can easily make your own designs rather than sticking with traditional patterns you find in the stores. Our Vanishing Transfers help you transfer any pattern you find online or make yourself! Use it to cross stitch a pattern onto a canvas bag or embroider a design onto your t-shirt, the possibilities are endless!

Paper Flowers and Succulents

Although paper flowers have been trendy for a while now, they are not going anywhere anytime soon. Watch out for new books and workshops popping up! Paper flowers will continue their popularity along with paper gardens and succulents. Whether you are making 3D paper flowers, or quilled succulent gardens, this trend is fun and here to stay! Stay tuned for some new colored paper packs from PrintWorks that will make these trends easy to make.

3D Art

Along with the 3D paper flowers that are everywhere, other 3D paper crafts are trending. Paper food, one that I personally love, has become more popular with people making anything from paper fruit to paper tacos! For many people, 3D cityscapes or scenes have become part of their everyday home décor. This unique trend is achieved by cutting and layering different colored cardstocks.

Constellations

Constellation crafts have been on the rise and will extend through 2020. Cool space scenes, starry nights, even astrology constellations are incorporated in this hip trend and have crossed into several different crafts. Our PrintWorks Glow in the Dark Transfers can make for some cool star gazing inside your home on pillows or even bedsheets.

Quilting

Quilting has become more and more popular and will continue to trend throughout 2020. However, it’s not just the traditional type of quilts, people are going outside the box using a mix of modern fabric, patterns, and colors. You can even try using our fabric transfers on some squares to add a personal touch with your own designs and photos!

Color Trends

Bright and neon colors are going to be some of the most popular colors you will see this year. Chartreuse, especially, has seen a huge uptick in online searches. Earth tones and neutrals will also play an important role in the various design markets while primary colors and black/white combos are trending upward.
