BBDO New York launched a spring effort for Lowe’s, made up of 15-second HyperMade videos hosted on the brand’s Instagram page, inspired by popular Pinterest projects.

In “Urban Garden,” (featured above), for example, a young couple demonstrates how easy it is to complete such a project with the proper equipment from Lowe’s. The couple’s rooftop balcony goes from nearly plant-free to full-fledged garden over the course of 15 seconds. Other videos in the campaign champion projects such as creating a privacy wall and turning an old mailbox into a gardening toolbox. There are also step-by-step project instructions on Lowe’s Tumblr and Pinterest pages to accompany the videos, for those inspired to give it a go for themselves. The campaign follows a similar effort last December, which saw the agency utilizing Vine and Instagram to demonstrate simple DIY projects.
