Embracing New Artisan Trends
/You’re a unique creature living and lounging with an intentional personal style. Artisan companies understand this. Whether your vibe is subtle and spiritual, nature-based, bold, or one of refined elegance, business owners like us get it.
This week, we walked the floors of an industry trade show to see and share a glimpse of notable trends that support all things distinct and delightful. Luxurious textiles, rich scents, lush, all-natural cosmetics, colorful patterns, and artful craftsmanship are just a few of the options:
Eye-catching designs in an array of colors are painted on ceramic pots and vases. Plants continue to capture the limelight nestled in chic, fashionable pots that accent a space. For those who prefer a muted pallet, don’t worry; you’ll find earthy hues as well. With the full spectrum of designs available, there’s an artisan style sure to capture your discerning taste.
Ignite your journey. Candles expand into a full experience, offering an elusive escape with the flicker of a scented flame. This relaxation tool is not just a pleasing aroma; it amplifies your style with fashionable graphics and packaging alongside unique fragrance combinations. Muted greens mimicking wood textures inspire calm, while other tapers are wildly colorful and ready to party.
Matches. We wrote about matches earlier here, and the pattern continues as the new hot (pardon the pun) accessory. Unique colors, bigger sizes, shapes, and specific messaging, are all ready to strike when the time is right.
Elegance, casual comfort, and silky styles abound. Textiles are covered in bold prints with sassy trims cut into distinct sizes. Cashmere bandanas, handmade mini wool scarves (that feel fabulous) accent your wardrobe with warmth or a pop of color.
All aboard with lush eco-travel products. Simple, sophisticated packaging and all-natural products tout higher quality and better care of the earth. These beautifully condensed multi-purpose products attempt to reduce the size of our toiletry bags with award-winning creams, shampoos, body lotions, and cleansing products - all in one lathering bar.
It was especially exciting to see the women-owned businesses bring their passions to market with inked collaborations, diverse leadership, and bold moves in the works.
