Online auction giant eBay has teamed up with Pinterest to promote its home decor product ranges.

It has recruited three UK Pinterest creators Poppy Deyes, Making the Manor, and Tiffany Grant-Riley to showcase the eBay offering via a ‘Christmas Your Way’ campaign.

The promotion uses Pinterests recently launched Idea Ads with Paid Partnership ad format. This enables businesses to promote a creator-produced Idea Pin, which uses images and videos to tell a story and inspire the creator’s audience to action.

Home decor is the top category on Pinterest with millions of users coming to the platform every month to search and shop inspiration. Pinterest says it has has seen 3.5x increase in searches for ‘Christmas decor DIY’ this year.

Alex Allcott, Brand Director at eBay UK, said: “Handing over the creative power to three brilliant Pinterest creators known for their interior inspiration has helped shape up authentic content that could only come from creators who understand our audience.

“Utilising Pinterest to closely collaborate with creators has provided us with an opportunity to reach new audiences at the very moment they are seeking inspiration for their own home.”
