Pinterest Pin Maker

Starting from a link instead of a blank canvas

A pin maker usually means a canvas, a template list, and an afternoon. The slow part is never the resizing — it is sourcing a product photo, deciding what the pin should say, and writing a description that does not sound like every other pin in the feed.

Pasting a link removes all three. The page supplies the product and the facts; the layout, the wording and the image are produced together. You can then change any of it.

Size, layout, and your own photos

Every pin comes out vertical 2:3 — 1000x1500 — the ratio Pinterest recommends and the one that occupies the most feed space on a phone. Taller pins get cropped; square ones look smaller than everything around them. More on sizing: Pinterest pin size guide.

Layouts cover single-product heroes, before-and-after, question-led designs, and multi-product roundups. One finding worth knowing from this product’s own measurements: layouts that show the real product photo consistently earned more saves than layouts that generate a stylish stand-in object resembling it. If you have the actual product image, use a layout that shows it.

Using your own photography

Upload your own photos and the text is composited over them directly — nothing about the product is redrawn or reimagined. For handmade and print-on-demand sellers that is usually the right choice, because the item in the photo is the item being sold.

Editing what you get

• Rewrite the headline or subtext and rebuild the image while keeping the same artwork.
• Ask for a different angle on the same product to get a fresh design and fresh copy.
• Edit the title, description and alt text directly before anything is published.
• Set a footer line — your blog or shop name — that prints on every pin instead of a raw URL.

Nothing publishes until you say so. Pins can be downloaded as images and uploaded to Pinterest by hand if you would rather not connect an account.
