To use these templates, select or take a photo related to home decor and pair it with one of the prompts below. Share the image and invite members to comment with their funniest, wittiest, or most creative captions. Rotate the style of image you use: rooms, decor fails, trendy pieces, or pets in styled spaces. Highlight the best captions in a follow-up post or story to recognize participation and keep the fun going.
On all platforms, use eye-catching images and short, clear prompts. On visual-heavy platforms like Instagram or Facebook, use stories or posts with the image as the main focus. On forums or chat platforms, describe the image if you cannot upload it. Always engage with replies to keep the conversation going.
Feature images that highlight key elements of popular design trendsβsuch as minimalist Japandi living rooms or biophilic-inspired plant displaysβand invite members to caption them. This naturally encourages members to discuss their preferences, share tips on sourcing similar pieces, or exchange DIY ideas relevant to those styles.
Anticipate passionate responses by framing your Caption This prompts with language like, 'There are no wrong answers!' Encourage respectful dialogue and even spotlight the best debates in follow-up posts. This approach helps maintain a positive community atmosphere while embracing the diversity of design opinions inherent in home decor.
A mix works best! Designer spaces can inspire and wow members, while real-life rooms or member submissions foster relatability and inclusivity. For Caption This, try alternating between both to keep engagement high and showcase the full spectrum of home decor possibilities.
Choose images that clearly illustrate a particular design concept (e.g., a room with deliberate negative space or contrasting textures). When posting, ask for captions that highlight the featured principle, and follow up with an explainer comment or post that details the concept and how to achieve it in their own homes.
Select a variety of images that reflect diverse seasonal traditions and aesthetics. In your Caption This prompt, invite members to share their own seasonal styling tips or even suggest what they'd add to the scene based on their traditions, ensuring inclusivity and expanding inspiration for all members.
If the image features iconic or branded items, acknowledge them in a neutral wayβe.g., 'Spot the Eames influence!'βand invite captions that focus on how members would style or use similar pieces. This keeps the focus on creativity and avoids appearing to endorse any specific brand, unless you have a partnership.
