Bookstore Retargeting Ad (Cozy Lamplight Scene)
Warm lamplight and rainy-window nostalgia trigger the exact 'I miss browsing there' feeling retargeting needs, and the dim lower third keeps your comeback offer readable in vertical Stories.

prompt
Create a retargeting ad creative for {bookstore_name}, an independent bookstore inviting browsers back with {promo_offer}. Cozy cinematic interior scene: a worn leather armchair beside a wooden shelf stacked with {book_genre} titles, a steaming mug, reading glasses, and a warm lamp glowing against a {season} evening seen through a rain-speckled window. Inviting amber-and-forest-green palette, soft volumetric light, gentle film grain for nostalgia. Compose with the lower third dim and uncluttered as a safe margin for ad copy and a comeback call to action. Book spines must stay blurred or generic with no readable titles. Output 9:16 vertical for Instagram Stories and Reels ads.
