48 curated keyword ideas

Pinterest keywords for diy and crafts

Craft searches are about the material and the outcome. People type the thing they have (mason jars, scrap wood, yarn) or the thing they want to make (wreath, macrame wall hanging) along with a skill level like easy or for beginners. The long-tail ideas below combine those pieces, which is how a crafter with a free Saturday actually searches.

These are curated keyword ideas written by hand for diy and crafts. There is no search volume data on this page and none is implied. Before you build a board around a phrase, check it in Pinterest Trends or type it into the Pinterest search bar and look at the suggestions that appear.

Kids crafts and holiday crafts behave like seasonal content, with demand rising before school breaks and holidays. Plan those pins early and keep evergreen project tutorials pinning all year.

How to use these keywords in titles, descriptions and board names

Lead with the material or the finished object, then the skill level. Step by step pins and tutorial phrasing do well here because crafters want to know they can finish the project, so phrases with easy, beginner or tutorial are worth the characters. If you sell patterns or kits, the product group belongs on listing pins.

Pinterest keywords for diy and crafts: FAQ

Should craft pins say easy or for beginners?

Use whichever is true and pick one. Both are common in craft searches, and either reassures a reader that the project is doable. Using both in one title wastes space.

How do I keyword a pin for a craft I sell?

Describe the item plainly, such as polymer clay earrings or crochet blanket pattern, and add who it is for or the occasion. Save the shop name for the description; searchers rarely know it yet.

Are kids crafts a separate keyword group?

Yes. Parents and teachers search with age words like toddler or preschool, plus the occasion. Naming the age range in the title helps the right reader find the pin.
