Pinterest is the go-to resource for home and lifestyle inspiration. It also serves as a crystal ball of sorts, predicting up-and-coming trends based on its users' interests. As summer comes to an end, the social media platform is offering a peek at autumn trends with its just-released fall report.
According to the findings, there is a powerful shift toward thrifting and sustainable shopping, with users curating unique spaces with pre-loved treasures.
"On Pinterest, we’ve seen searches for 'thrifted kitchen' jump more than 1,000 percent and 'thrifted décor' rise over 280 percent this year alone," says Sydney Stanback, global insights and trends lead for Pinterest. "Whether it’s a vintage lamp, a retro rug, or a perfectly worn-in dining set, these secondhand treasures bring instant character to a space while keeping both budget and planet in mind."
From blue ceramic backsplashes to 1920s-inspired interiors, we are highlighting the home and lifestyle trends that Pinterest users are currently searching for, and what you can expect to see this fall.
Statement Tiles
Statement tiles are having a major moment because they can transform a room without a full renovation, Stanback notes. Searches for "vintage tiles" have soared over 1,100 percent, and "accent tile behind stove" is up nearly 400 percent. Other popular terms include "terracotta tiles texture," "copper tiles bathroom," and "blue ceramic tile."
"Homeowners are using bold patterns, rich colors, and unique textures to turn everyday spaces—like a kitchen backsplash or a bathroom floor—into works of art. It’s a simple swap that makes the space feel instantly elevated and deeply personal," she adds.
Office Space Makeovers
Whether returning to the office or working from home, users are looking to infuse their workspaces with personal style. Searches for "green office aesthetic" and "luxe office" have increased by 1,065 percent and 2,766 percent, respectively.
Art Deco Decor
According to Stanback, Art Deco is making a glamorous comeback, but with a modern twist. Pinterest has seen interest in "Art Deco vintage" rise over 800 percent, with users gravitating toward statement lighting, geometric patterns, and luxe materials like brass and marble.
"Even small touches—a scalloped mirror, a velvet armchair, or a graphic wallpaper—can infuse a room with that signature 1920s elegance. It's all about mixing bold design elements with everyday comfort," she says.
Sweet Bread and Mini Bakes
When it comes to seasonal baking, Pinterest found that decorated sweet focaccia breads and mini bakes—think tiny cakes, brunch bites, and mini dessert buffets—will be popular this fall. Searches for "mini dessert ideas" and "mini egg cheesecake" were up 529 percent and 854 percent, respectively, while "lemon blueberry focaccia" rose 308 percent and "cinnamon focaccia" was up 562 percent.
"Mini bakes and sweet breads are perfect for intimate gatherings, gifting, or simply treating yourself without the fuss of a full-sized bake," Stanback says. "They’re charming, shareable, and make everyday moments feel a little more special."
Vintage Preppy Looks
According to the Pinterest data, preppy aesthetics are making a return, from classic navy stripes to Gen Z’s fresh take on Southern prep. Searches for "women's preppy outfits" were up a whopping 47,680 percent among all ages, while interest in "preppy vibes" was up 5,597 percent. Polka dots and 1960s baby doll glamour are also growing in popularity on Pinterest.
Autumnal Fragrances
As the weather cools, cozy layering extends to fragrances with warm, nostalgic scents like apple, vanilla, and caramel showing up as the season's must-haves. Pinterest found that searches for "vanilla scent aesthetic" were up 117 percent, and "layering scent combos" rose by 157 percent.
