Each of these cushions are designed to look just like the tiny letter tiles from the hit Scrabble board game. [Etsy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/floof-snuggle-sack-and-floor-pillow) shop owner 'Dirtsastudio' designed these homey bed cushions after the retro Scrabble board game. To play Scrabble, players have to use several brown letter tiles to spell out works and earn points along the board. 'Dirtsastudio' copied the lettering style of the Scrabble tiles, printed it on high-quality black wool and sewed it by hand onto these dainty [canvas pillow covers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pillow-cover). Buyers can purchase several of these Scrabble cushions and enjoy spelling out cute words to add to their decor, like 'bed' or 'love.' ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 0.7/10 - Popularity: 5% | Activity: 8% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Retro Game-inspired Home Decor:** The trend of incorporating classic board games into home accessories presents an opportunity for companies to create unique, nostalgic products that appeal to consumers who appreciate retro elements. - **Handcrafted Cushions:** The demand for handmade cushions offers companies a chance to tap into the growing market of consumers seeking high-quality, artisanal home decor items. - **Personalized Word-based Decor:** The trend of incorporating personalization and customization in home decor presents an opportunity for companies to create products that allow consumers to uniquely express themselves through language and design. ### Where This Applies - **Home Decor Industry:** The home decor industry can take advantage of the trend of retro game-inspired decor to create unique and nostalgic products that appeal to consumers. - **Artisanal Craft Industry:** The growing demand for high-quality, handmade products provides an opportunity for companies in the artisanal craft industry to create unique, one-of-a-kind cushions and other home accessories. - **Customizable Product Industry:** Companies that specialize in customizable products can take advantage of the trend of incorporating personalization in home decor to offer consumers unique, personalized cushions and other similar items. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Supportive Gamer Cushions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/large-cushion-table-bht700c.md) - [Puzzle Video Game Sofas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sara-hyat-tetris-sofa.md) - [Vibrant Boardgame-Inspired Slippers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dearfoams-x-hasbro.md) - [Bookshelf Board Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bookshelf-board-game.md) - [Contoured Gamer Support Pillows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/neochi-pillow-for-gaming.md) - [Gamer-Targeted Pillows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gaming-pillow.md) - [Collectible Plush Pillows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/squishpillow-by-original-squishmallows.md) - [Opulent Floral Decor](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/house-of-hackney.md) - [Board Game Furniture Innovations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bandpass-design.md)
