If you’re reading my blog, and come to a picture you really like, you can now hover your mouse over it and a Pin It button will pop up!
This photo hover Pin It button tutorial is the one I used for Blogger – you can choose your own picture, your own position, and yes, it takes some HTML fiddling, but it’s worth it in the end! And for WordPress, I now use the Pinterest Pin It Button For Images plugin. If that’s the one for you, here’s how you can customise your Pin It button.
Other options for quick and easy Pinning – if you’re using Firefox, you can use this right click Pinterest add-on so that you can right click a picture and Pin It from the menu! And Chrome has a right click Pinterest extra too.

Ooh! I want an image like yours! Did you find that somewhere or make it yourself?
I tried adding the hover button script to my blog (blogger) yesterday… went into my template and could not find the < / body > tag ANYWHERE! Eeeek!! I even search with ctl F… nothing. :-/
I wonder what that’s about. lol
