Today I’m sharing the top Pinterest Trends for December 2024. This post is meant to act as a guide to help you plan the next 30 days of content for your blog – around the top Pinterest Trends in your niche! Grab a coffee and let’s get started. 

I’m back with our final monthly Pinterest roundup post! Today I’m going to be sharing the top Pinterest trends for December 2024, to help you plan the rest of your content for the year. I’ll be honest if you’re not already sharing Christmas content… you are severely behind! 

As always, my goal is to help you plan your blog content using topics that your audience is already searching for on Pinterest. Pinterest, Google, and social media algorithms are constantly changing… utilizing Pinterest trends is the number one way that you can stay on top of those changes.

The Pinterest Trends Tool

Pinterest is constantly evolving and making its trends predictor better – so if you haven’t taken advantage of this tool yet, welcome. Because this is going to transform your Pinterest account. I truly think that the Pinterest trends tool is the top marketing tool that people are sleeping on! 

By using these Pinterest trends to plan and create your content, you’ll reach your target audience 10x faster. And you’ll reach them for longer – because Pinterest trends sustain for 21% longer than on other platforms. 

That’s one of the reasons why I love Pinterest so much. The typical shelf life for a post on Instagram is less than 24 hours. While the typical shelf life for a post on Pinterest is 8 months. 

Even if you only create one piece of content based on a ‘Pinterest Trend’ you will start to see results – trust me. 

Read past posts: 

We almost have a full year of Pinterest trends! Shall I do a recap of what the biggest trends were from this year and what’s being predicted for 2025? 

How does this Pinterest trends guide work?

You know why you’re here. This guide is organized by niche – and each bullet point is a direct trending keyword on Pinterest. You can literally copy and paste each bullet point as the keyword for your content. 

You can use those keyphrases in dedicated blog posts, reels, TikTok videos, and directly as Pinterest posts.

In the meantime, let’s build out your content calendar for December.  

December Holidays to Celebrate on Pinterest

  • 01 December | World Aids Day
  • 02 December | Cyber Monday
  • 03 December | Giving Tuesday
  • 07 December | National Joy Day
  • 10 December | Human Rights Day

If you’re wondering why I always share upcoming and random holidays with you – it’s to help you plan and it’s to help you with ‘quick win’ content. You should always be planning for the big holidays (especially Christmas and New Year’s fast approaching) but if you’re stuck for ideas, use these ‘silly’ holidays if they can be made relevant to your niche. 

OK, now for our December Pinterest Trends (by niche!)

December Fashion Trends on Pinterest

You can pretty much expect December content to revolve around the upcoming holidays. Marketers, bloggers, and businesses are in full swing of holiday content, however, that fits into their niche. Women’s fashion is no exception – but there are some really fun and interesting fashion trends that you can jump on right now that aren’t Christmas-related! 

Here’s what I found when looking at ‘women’s fashion’ on Pinterest for December:
  • Justin Timberlake Concert Outfit (up 10,000%) 
    • Timbs Outfit Black Women (up 10,000%)
  • Billie Eilish Concert Outfit (up 10,000%)
  • Cool Sunglasses (up 10,000%)
  • Apres Ski Outfits (up 1,000%)
    • Ski Fits
  • Thanksgiving Outfit Aesthetic (up 1,000% this month)
    • Thanksgiving Dinner Outfit
  • Brown Fur Boots Outfit
  • Black Skirt Outfit Fall
  • Comfy Casual Fall Outfits
  • Winter Fits
  • November Birthday Outfit
  • NBA Outfit Women
    • Basketball Game Outfit Black Women
    • NBA Game Outfit Women
  • Holiday Outfits Women (up 700% this month)
    • Christmas Photoshoot Outfits
    • Family Christmas Outfits
    • Christmas Outfit
    • Holiday Work Party Outfit
    • Christmas Church Outfit
    • Plus Size Holiday Party Outfit (up 2,000% this month)
  • Winter Club Outfit
    • Winter Night Out Outfit

Between the growing trends and seasonal trends – you shouldn’t run out of things to post about for the next 5 weeks on Pinterest. Besides the usual holiday suspects, there is also a lot of ski and concert outfit inspiration happening, alongside winter going-out outfits. 

Here’s what I found when looking at ‘men’s fashion’ on Pinterest for December:
  • Classy Outfits Men (up by 1,000%)
  • Sambas Outfits (up 900%)
    • Adidas Sambas
    • Sambas
  • Authentic 70s Fashion (up 600%)
  • Frank Ocean Hoodie (up by 400%)
  • Genderless Fashion (up 300%)
  • Guys Clothing Styles
  • Pink Carhartt Jacket
    • Carhartt Jacket Outfit
    • Carhartt Jacket Outfit Men
  • Leather Jacket Outfit Men
  • Cardigan Outfit Men
  • Timberland Boots Outfit Mens
  • 1980s Fashion Trends
  • Old Money Outfits Men

We’ve seen men’s fashion growing over the year – and that’s no different in December. However, it does not follow the same trends that women’s fashion does. While I still think it’s beneficial to post Christmas and holiday content for men’s fashion, make sure that you are also focusing on these key phrases that pinners are searching for. 

Food and Drinks Trends on Pinterest in December 2024

Hopefully, you’re already sharing all of your recipes for the holidays! I hope that you’ve been talking about nothing but Thanksgiving and Christmas for the last couple of months. However, as we move in December and we leave Christmas behind, start thinking about what pinners are going to be searching for in the new year! 

Here’s what I found when looking at ‘food and drink’ on Pinterest for December:
  • Hear Me Out Cake (10,000%)
    • Hear Me Out Cakes
  • Japanese Recipes Ideas (up 10,000%)
  • Recipe Ideas (up 10,000%)
  • Friendsgiving Dinner Party (up 5,000%)
  • Limoncello Recipes (up 2,000%)
  • Broccoli Cheddar Soup (up 2,000%)
  • Marry Me Chicken Soup (up 1,000%)
  • Cottage Cheese Chocolate Mousse

    • Turkey Charcuterie Board
  • NYE Desserts
  • New Year’s Appetizers 
  • New Year’s Day Food
  • New Year’s Eve Snacks Appetizers
  • NYE Snacks

There’s such a unique mix on Pinterest right now in the food category. On one hand, your Thanksgiving posts are going to be trending for a bit longer, but on the other hand, it’s too late to create any new ones! Instead, you’ll need to focus on Christmas and New Year’s. We’re also seeing Japanese recipes trending for the second month in a row which means it’s a really good trend to use to boost your views. 

And if you’re wondering what a “Hear Me Out” cake was – here’s an example I found – but I still have no idea what exactly this trend is 😂

From now until the end of the year, you can expect that pinners are going to be searching for ways to decorate their homes for the various holidays (but let’s face it, mostly Christmas).

Think about how you can help your audience refresh their bedroom for the new year. 

DIY and Craft Trends on Pinterest in December 2024

Once again, this trend is going to be dominated by Christmas everything. From DIY crafts to DIY gifts and home decorations – you are going to want to make sure you’re sharing your holiday content now. You can also start to share content to help people get inspired for the new year.

Yup – as you can see it is Christmas time on Pinterest!

And yes, I am serious about the uptick in traffic for Father’s Day. And no, I don’t have any idea why that’s growing so drastically!

While we’re finally seeing more travel trends grow on Pinterest, we’re still seeing the usual suspects in this niche – more often than not, Pinterest shares random things with this niche, like the overwhelming number of keyphrases we’re seeing around New York. If New England is the place to travel in the fall, New York in the place to be in the winter. However, we’re still seeing a few other destinations pop up!
