A 1 Colour
Spring marks the time for bright and breezy colours, with pink being particularly favoured, alongside dark, moody shades and crisp monochromes. The contrasting light and dark hues look great together, and perfectly complement the metallic colours that are set to be bang on-trend for the rest of the year.

Watercolour & brush lettering
Watercolours remain all the rage, most likely because they're fairly easy to work with. Altenew has a beautiful watercolour palette that will soon be released, but if you're looking for something a little more versatile for mixed media projects, then the Brea Reese watercolour inks are a perfect choice. Brush lettering is also a fast-growing craze, and it works perfectly with watercolours and planners, too.
4 Planners
& traveller notebooks
Planners and their smaller counterparts, traveller's notebooks, can be found everywhere at the moment; you can embellish them in any way you want and their size makes them easy to carry around with you wherever you go – I can see why they're so popular! Webster's Pages have created some beautiful new planner designs, and Simple Stories and Echo Park have a fantastic range of traveller notebooks.
magic and fantasy
The mystical and magical theme is set to continue, with unicorns,
mermaids, fairies and all things fantasy. The on-trend mix of deep shades and pastel colours also gives this theme a feeling of mindfulness and relaxation, in order to transport you to another world.
46 CRAFT CLUB MAGAZINE 5 Letter boards
Crafting your own home décor is still a craze at the moment, with letter boards being one of the most popular items to create because they're so easy to customise with a personal touch.
