First off, the guide looks at rising home décor trends: As explained by TikTok: 'TikTok has become more than a source of home inspiration - it's where decisions are made and purchases happen. Research shows that 77% of users have recently bought household care items, and nearly half say they're open to buying consumer packaged goods directly on the platform. The timing couldn't be better for brands. Major life moments like moving, renovating, or reorganizing often result in new habits, and TikTok users going through these transitions are especially receptive to discovering and trying new products.' The guide also looks at TikTok's various promotional offerings on this front: While there's also a timeline overview of the optimal times to launch your TikTok ad campaigns: There's also a listing of key creative tips for your home décor videos, which also relate to pretty much any TikTok clip: These are some handy notes and pointers, which could help you refine your TikTok marketing strategy, with, again, most of these notes relating to pretty much any niche and product.

What is the pearl earring theory? The TikTok trend blaming jewelry for being single
'Girl with a Pearl Earring' has taken on a new meaning on social media. TikTok loves a theory, especially ones that attempt to explain dating struggles. The 'pearl earring theory' is the latest to go viral, claiming that the classic freshwater gemstone could be the reason you are chronically single. Why? According to TikTok, pearl jewelry gives off the impression of being expensive and, as a result, high maintenance. 'Woke up and found out there's a 'pearl earring theory,'' one creator posted alongside a selfie where she is wearing giant pearl earrings. The next slide reads: 'So you're telling me the 'pearl earrings theory' is actually about how if someone wears them, they'd be single for a long time and not because you'd look expensive and attract potential lovers?' Of course, there's no scientific backing to this theory. In fact, many in the comments have pushed back with their own love of pearls and successful dating lives. But, given the state of dating in 2025, others are running with it. 'No because recently I've been realizing that I'm chronically single. You would think by having a big following I would have a gluttonous amount of guys DMing me,' one TikTok creator complained. 'No wonder I'm single all the time,' she says, gesturing to her pearl drop earrings, pearl necklace, and pearl bracelets. 'I'm decked out in pearls. Truly it is everywhere on everything.' Others are offering the TikTok-viral-theory version of mixed signals. 'When you wear pearl earrings but have red nails and realize why men must be so confused,' one TikTok user posted. The red-nail theory, by contrast, suggests you're more likely to attract suitors if your nails are painted red. The 'pearl earring theory' has even made it to the subreddit r/dating_advice, where someone asked for men's takes. 'The last thing I look at is a women's earrings!,' one Reddit user wrote. 'I've seen women with the goofiest earrings lock down the best guys,' another suggested. So, ladies, if you want to wear pearls, wear your pearls. Or, on the flip side, some are embracing the theory and using pearls as a way to deliberately ward off romantic interests. One creator posted: 'If 'pearl earrings theory' is real, then I'll wear it even more.'

WATCH — Why you might want to translate Italian brain rot before repeating it
Trending meme sounds might feature offensive terms Tralalero Tralala. Sound familiar? Then you've seen those Italian brain rot videos taking over TikTok. The videos show AI-generated character art of animals mixed with other creatures or objects. The videos usually start with an Italian-sounding name — which is actually gibberish — like Bombardilo Crocodilo or Ballerina Cappuccina. Then the voiceover continues using real Italian words. It's hard to pinpoint the exact origins of the trend. The TikTok account echino1246 posted one of the earliest examples, on Jan. 8. It featured the Tralalero Tralala audio with an image of a shark with pigeon legs standing on a beach. Keep reading to hear theories as to why Italian brain rot has caught on. ⬇️⬇️⬇️ Why do people like it? CBC Kids News spoke to Jarret Verwimp, a clinical counsellor from Calgary, Alberta, who works with youth. Verwimp told us this kind of content gets popular because of how catchy and repeatable it is. 'The language, it's cool. It's some new word and it's catchy,' Verwimp said. 'It gets stuck in people's heads and they keep saying it over and over again.' Of course, Verwimp said, you don't want to be repeating any offensive content. 'I think the danger with all of this is they don't know what some of these things really mean,' he said. Why some are concerned over ChatGPT's new Studio Ghibli-style images That hasn't stopped brands from jumping on board, said market researcher Francesco De Nittis with Human Centric Group based in Italy. In a blog post, he said it takes 'minimal effort' to hop on the trend and offers 'instant engagement' with young audiences. That said, De Nittis added brands have to take it one step further — and create their own memorable content — if they want to be remembered. Is it really rotting your brain? Verwimp said that relaxing and watching content you enjoy can be a positive thing. 'All of that is good. We all need a break sometimes,' he said. 'It'll make you laugh, maybe, and go: 'Ha ha, that's silly.'' But like lots of things in life, it's all about finding a balance. Verwimp said that we all have a limited amount of time to choose what we consume. 'It's not that watching this is going to make you stupid,' he said. 'But you're taking away from the time you have to watch something that's going to lift you up, that's going to educate you.' Tell us what you think ⬇️⬇️⬇️
