Every year craft fairs become a great marketplace to render the hottest craft trends climbing the horizon. Nothing to be surprised about; last year, we all went through the critical phase of Covid-19. Well, I have booked online some amazing craft shows near me - Carlsbad art in the village, Graeagle arts and crafts fair, Artwalk liberty station, and Alameda art & wine faire. All these are going to be held in California. 


I remember the last visit to my craft fair was in Michigan (my granny’s place) before the lockdown came into a scenario. I’m a big fan of handmade crafts sold by local & international artists. I bought a vintage suitcase, a few handmade earrings showcasing on the earring tree ( I loved the selling concept), a piece of macrame jewelry, and two-hand painted flower-vases. 


No doubt, I missed all that fun & exposure! However, this year I’ve already scheduled the bookings to adore new craft-trends. I did a bit of research to find out what unique initiates the craft fairs will hold. (Trust me, I am highly excited after knowing the new content of craft shows)


Things One Need To Tour


Get Art Therapy


We all know therapy serves the mind & body. Art therapy is something that is not much popular. Hopefully, this year we can relish the experience of art therapy. Many craft fairs globally are giving extra space to conduct art therapy. 


What is it? Craft is a place of creators and learners. Creators sell their art, whereas learners experience them as the audience. It’s an adult coloring book and painting, including fun activities that help us feel calm and creative. Pandemic was stress, so it might be helpful for many people to put negative thoughts out of their minds. Even this can be my first experience to see the magic of art therapy.  


Interesting Wood Decors


For newbies, be a part of craft festivals 2021 to explore the flavor of distinct crafts. People are fond of purchasing home decors and lifestyle products from craft fairs. So do I. Wood decors are not new to me, but this time, it’s going to stand out. Undoubtedly, I’m waiting. From home furniture to kids’ toys, wood decors will impress the audience for purchasing. Wood contains eco-credentials, making a safe-buy.


➤Embroidered Face Masks


Face masks are indeed a new element in the 2021 craft fairs. Embroidery plays a major role in craft shows; Women love shopping for handmade cushions, dresses worked with punch needles. Face masks are a part of our everyday life, so become the main fashion accessory. We can’t get the handcrafted face masks in the store. Try new knitted face-masks to pair up with outfits & occasions. 



➤ Themed Shows


Craft fairs have high entertaining shows making the audience laugh & creating moments. Performers will build a hangover by showcasing their talent. The best part of the fair is themed shows by the artists revealing the culture & immense fun. Travelers adoring the unique traditions and culture find the themed shows interesting. 



Apart from these, luscious food & beverages add extra fun to the craft fair. When served in unbelievable ways, it blows up my mind. In a nutshell, craft fairs are enjoyable.
