The world of ribbons keeps evolving, and 2026 brings fresh trends that will inspire gift wrapping, decor, weddings, and DIY crafts. Whether you’re a maker, designer, or small business owner, these ribbon trends are worth watching.
In 2026, ribbon texture matters more than ever. Craft supplies with rich feel and depth will outperform flat, single-surface styles. Velvet ribbons — like the Non-Wired Velvet Ribbon and Wired Velvet Ribbon — are perfect examples. Their lush, tactile surface brings warmth to gift bows, wreaths, and seasonal décor.

Soft satin remains a classic but is now trending in smoother, understated shades rather than bright glossy finishes. Satin Ribbon in muted pastels or rich neutrals pairs beautifully with minimalist gift wrap and floral arrangements.

Wired ribbons give structure to bows and decorative accents. Products like Dupioni Wired Ribbon and holiday wired sets provide shape and stability, letting creators build large, dramatic bows that hold form without fuss. This trend is especially strong for weddings, parties, and seasonal packaging where presentation matters.

Rather than loud designs, 2026 favors intentional minimal prints — soft geometrics, small botanicals, and vintage motifs that add subtle personality without distracting from the overall craft. These styles work well when layered with solid ribbons like grosgrain or satin for contrast.

Designers and crafters are moving toward ribbons that are useful year-round instead of only for holidays. Neutral colors, timeless textures, and elegant finishes make ribbons versatile for birthdays, weddings, anniversaries, and everyday gifts. Mixed bundles, such as the Christmas Ribbon Set 02 or Christmas Ribbon Set 08A, even cross over into general use with classic palettes and finishes.

Oversized bows continue to trend. Using wider ribbons — like 2.5" or 6" wired velvet and jacquard ribbon — lets you scale up bows on wreaths, gift boxes, or seating decorations with style. These statement accents are visually striking and align with the maximalist feel many designers are embracing in 2026.
