5 TRENDS Quietly Making $9,640/Mo on Etsy (Best Products 2026) 🔥
About this video
Dylan Jahraus says sellers should stop looking to Etsy for ideas because by the time something trends there you are, in her framing, 6 to 8 months too late; instead identify trends outside Etsy and bring them to the platform. Note: the $9,640/mo figure in the title is title framing only and is not stated in the transcript. She presents five trends usable in any category, stressing you often do not need to change the product — you can change its context, mockups, vessels or styling. 1) ‘50 Shades of Purple’: sophisticated, cool/periwinkle and lavender tones, achieved via adjacent color options, color blocking, or two textures of the same color that read as two tones; applicable to seamless patterns, home decor, pouches, stationery, and as a POD variation color. 2) Fake branded stuff: invented, brand-like labels on functional products such as vases shaped like milk cartons, cans or perfume bottles — with an explicit warning not to use real brands like Advil or Vogue, which would be trademark violations. 3) Disproportionate color blocking: intentional, imperfect, organic blocking with blocks/stripes of unequal sizes, suited to repeating patterns on wallpaper, wrapping paper, shower curtains, blankets, pillows, towels and tea towels. 4) Flowers plus text: floral graphics combined with lettering on frames, vases, wall art, rugs and totes, inspired by seed packets and scientific/botanical labeling; she also advises styling digital wall art frames and rooms on-trend. 5) Copper and brass details replacing gold, in planters, candle holders, kitchen and bathroom hardware, trays and gift-box styling — e.g. photographing existing wooden spoons in a copper vessel.
Key takeaways
- Source trends outside Etsy and bring them in early; by the time a trend is visible on Etsy it is already late.
- You can adopt a trend by changing context and mockups — vessels, backgrounds, frames, neighboring products — without changing the product itself.
- Use sophisticated purples/lavenders, including two-texture same-color combinations that read as two tones.
- Fake-brand styling must use invented labels; using real brands without an agreement is a trademark violation.
- Copper and brass, disproportionate imperfect color blocking, and flowers-plus-text designs can be applied across handmade, POD, digital, vintage and handpicked shops.
