Pinterest keywords for Etsy Christmas ornament and holiday decor sellers

These are researched ideas to test in Pinterest search, not search-volume data. Type each one into Pinterest’s search bar and look at the suggestions it offers, or check it in Pinterest Trends, before building pins around it.

Christmas ornament shoppers are building traditions, so many searches mark a "first": "baby's first christmas ornament", "our first christmas married". The rest are hunting for a tree theme and buy several pieces that match.

Using them in pin titles and descriptions

  • Use "first christmas" phrases exactly as people say them ("our first christmas", "baby's first christmas") when the ornament marks a milestone.
  • Say whether the year can be added, and only put a specific year in the title if it is printed on the ornament.
  • Name the tree theme (woodland, nordic, pink) so shoppers decorating to a theme can find matching pieces.
  • Start pinning from late summer with gift-led titles, then lean on decorating words as December gets closer.

Pinterest allows titles up to 100 characters, and only the first 40 or so may show in feeds (Pinterest product specs), so put the main keyword first.

Example pin

A keyword mistake to avoid

Avoid leaving last year's date in titles and pin text: a pin showing a past year looks out of date to someone shopping now. Say "personalized with the year" or refresh those pins each season.
