TikTok may be known for short-form video, but photo carousels are having a moment. They’re quick to create, easy to repurpose from Instagram, and perfect for sharing more of your personality and aesthetic without a full editing session. Even better? You can plan and schedule them directly in Planoly so you’re never scrambling for what to post.

Try these evergreen carousel ideas to build out your TikTok content library:

Monthly Favorites

Monthly round-ups don’t need to be just video. Take a quick flat lay of your favorite products or snaps from the month, then use each slide to share why you’re loving them.

Moodboards

‍Planning a new room, closet refresh, or seasonal aesthetic? Save inspo pics from Dupe, build a collage in Canva, upload, and schedule in Planoly. It’s an easy way to show your creative direction!

Day or Week in My Life in Photos

Filming and editing your daily vlogs can be a pain, but showcasing your day in photos can be a much easier way to document your life! Capture small moments throughout your day, add time stamps or small captions, and create a visual diary.

Everything I Ate / Meal Prepped This Week 

Another way to document your day! Take photos of everything you ate – from your morning coffee to your nightly sweet treat – and share a round-up for meal inspo. Great for lifestyle, wellness, and recipe creators.

Sunday Reset

Resets don’t always have to be fast-paced, highly edited videos. Simply snap some before & after shots of your space as you tidy up.

Calling all shopaholics – this one is for you. Share your current wishlist or items that you have saved in your cart, or curate wishlists or gift guides for upcoming holidays.

Content I Consumed This Week

My Top Five

Keep it simple — share your top 5 books, makeup products, accounts to follow, restaurants in your city, or hobbies you’re currently loving.

Recent Outfits 

A simple way to show off your recent fits! Create a collage for each look with styling notes, or keep it clean with one fit per slide.
‍Example by @maaikelothmann

Things I’ve Learned 

People connect with your perspective. Share lessons from your 20s or 30s, what you’ve learned running a business, or insights from building your personal brand.

Recent Pins

If your Pinterest boards are your love language, let your audience in. Start with a board cover image, then swipe through your latest pins. Bonus: use SEO-friendly caption phrases like “Recent Fall Home Pins” or “My Outfit Moodboard for November.”
‍Example by @kedamyheart‍‍

Recently at Home

This one is for all the homebodies! Share snapshots of your home – from home decor, to daily rituals, to cozy moments you’ve been loving lately.

City Guides

Travel recently? Turn your recommendations into a mini travel guide. Share where to eat, shop, explore, and stay — or build themed guides like “Best Coffee Shops in Austin” or “36 Hours in NYC.”
