Please I need step by step...

I'm laughing because if it weren't for my daughter putting something on my desktop that I just click if I want to pin something, I could never do it by myself.

Good luck!

Publish it if you get good information, please.

Nancy, Nancy, Nancy...

Do you have some boards started with the categories that you want to pin your items to (Ex: Quilting, Home Decor, etc)

Did you download the Pinterest widget, it's found in the Help/Goodies section of Pinterest?

Once you find a photo somewhere on the internet, click your Pinterest widget and a separate window should open, allowing you to pin to one of your boards.

If you need further help, FM or email me separately.

Good Luck!!

I downloaded it about a month ago, but didn't know what to do with it. So, I deleted it.

Good luck!

Look at the top right hand side of the main page and select "ADD".

You should be able to select "add pin". When that comes up, you'll see this:

Did you know you can pin images from any website with the Pinterest bookmarklet?
Drag this link to your browser toolbar: ⚲Pin It

Drag that link to your browser toolbar and click it any time you see something online you want to pin.

Good luck!

I am SO glad you asked! I joined a while back and I can`t make sense of it either, but was embarrassed to say so!
