Quote: Look for quotes that resonate with your brand’s aesthetic or the feeling you
want your customers to associate with your products. Create visually appealing graphics
with the quote using design tools or apps like Canva.
Before & After: Take photos of a room or space in your home with minimal decor, then
add your home decor items to create a stylish transformation. Ensure good lighting and
angle the shots to highlight the changes effectively.
Behind The Scenes: Use your smartphone to capture video footage of the backroom
or office space in your store. Narrate the tour, pointing out interesting features or behindthe-scenes activities.
Sneak Peeks: Take a close-up photo of a new arrival or upcoming product, focusing
on intriguing details. Post the image with a caption inviting followers to guess what it is or
when it will be available.
Flat-Lay: Arrange a selection of your home and gift products on a flat surface, ensuring
they’re well-organized and visually appealing. Capture the flat lay from above using
natural light for the best results.
Meet the Employees: Take a portrait-style photo of a staff member and create a
graphic overlay with interview questions and their answers. Share the post on your social
media channels to introduce your team to your audience.
Introduce Yourself: Share a candid photo of yourself, your family, or your team, along
with a caption explaining the story behind your Home & Gift store and your mission to
serve customers.
Memes: Find or create memes related to home decor or gift-giving that resonate with
your audience’s sense of humor. Share them with a witty caption to spark engagement.

highlighting the current theme or featured products. Consider creating time-lapse videos
to show the process of setting up the display.
