In order to save pins, you should first have boards, so all your pins will be organized. I will show you now how to create a board and save others people pins in your board.

When you are still on the Saved page, and scroll down, you can see the lists of Boards and Pins. You can create public board and secret board. To create public board you go on the plus button where it says Create board.

If scroll a little bit more down, you can see the option for creating Secret board. That means that your friends cannot see that board. Only you can see it. You can also invite some of your friends to have access to that board. For example, there you add pins that only your premium members can see them.

Now we are creating a board named Origami. You can chose whether the board will be public (grey) or secret (red). When you set up all that, press Create.

Our Origami board is created. We still don't have any pin in it.


Now we search for Origami pins in the search tab. You can see on the image bellow how the results from the search are shown.

1. It gives you first keyword ideas related to origami.

2. Next are shown the People (Pinterest accounts - Pinners) who have the origami keyword in their name. If you want you can follow some of them.

3. It gives you a list of boards related to origami. You can also follow some of that boards.

4. You can notice that the first of the boards is the one that we created.

I chose to search only the keyword Origami. This is how the it looks when you search something. Bellow the search tab it gives you ideas for additional keywords related to what you have searched, so you can narrow your search more concretely.

Below that is the list of pins that you could save in your board. I chose the one with the blue star, as it was the first that I opened before.

So, as I mentioned before, you can save the pin immediately from the search page, or open the pin and save it from there.

When you press the button Save, you have option to chose from your own boards, create new one, and based on the article it suggests you ideas for boards names. Since we already created a board called Origami, we save the pin there.

The second option is to create new board, so we chose new pin, and we create new board.

I chose the name Origami Dragon, and I decide to make this board secret.

So, now, we have two boards, one public, another secret. And we have pins in them. This is how it looks.

Whenever we want to see the pins again and read the articles linked with them, we can go to the board and open the pin, press the button Read it or Visit. And there we are.
