How to pin your Chalky Projects to Pinterest

Good morning everyone and Happy November!  I have had a few people recently ask me about how I pin my Chalky projects to Pinterest after I paint them.  Here is the easiest way that I have found to do this and I do it right from my phone... because it is easy and the phone is always in my hand or pocket! haha

Step 1:  Take a photo of your amazing Chalky creation.  I like to stage at least a little so I added nail polish bottles to the completed kit here. The better your picture looks the more likely Pinners will look at it!

Step 2: I open up my photos file on my phone and choose the picture I want to Pin.  Click on the envelope in the lower left corner to view the photo options.  

 

Step 3: Scroll over to the Pinterest button and click it.  Then the Pinterest screen will pop up allowing you to add a description to your pin and choose which of your boards to pin it to. 

 

Step 4: Go into the Pinterest app and find the Pin you just added.  (Yes I have Hulu and Netflix on my phone- don't judge me! haha) Click on the Pin then click on the pencil in the top left corner to edit the Pin.  Here you can add/edit the description and ADD YOUR WEBSITE!!! This is how people will find you.  If you do not add a website or Facebook URL here then people will just see your photo when they click on your Pin- it will not take them to you!! Then click done! 

 

That's it! So quick and easy.   I hope that this helps you on your Chalky project pinning journey.   If you really want to get fancy check out my blog post about adding matching covers to all of your Pinterest boards!  Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!
