What is Pinterest?In simple terms, a digital notebook where you can keep photos, articles, and any other digital items for reference.

You can upload items of your own, or you can look at other websites, blogs, or photos and pin them.

If the blog, merchant, or website has a Pinterest, there will be a logo listed. If it doesn’t, you can still pin it, but you may need to copy the website.
