Different patterns come from different places: Sentry at pillager outposts, Vex at woodland mansions, Coast in shipwrecks, Dune in desert pyramids, Ward and Silence in ancient cities, and Eye in strongholds. Trail ruins offer the Wayfinder, Raiser, Shaper and Host designs through brushing suspicious gravel. Nether structures hold Snout and Rib; the End holds Spire. Trial chambers provide Bolt and Flow via vault rewards, while Tide can drop from an elder guardian.

How to make the collection easier

Choose an Overworld-only, Nether, End or rare-pattern preset, or select the complete set. Save a checklist for one survival world so you can mark each trim after obtaining it. The source location is included in each task's notes. A smithing template is consumed when you apply a trim; make copies with diamonds and the corresponding duplication material before using your only example.

Armor trims versus netherite upgrades

There are 19 ordinary smithing-template types, but just 18 are armor trim designs. The Netherite Upgrade template is for equipment upgrading, not a decorative trim, and is intentionally excluded from this collectible checklist. For exploration beyond trims, use the Minecraft structures guide.
