Sometimes one photo cannot tell the whole story. A recipe round up, a room makeover or a travel itinerary all work better with several pictures. The simplest way to show multiple pictures in one pin is to combine them into a single collage image.
Why use a collage pin?
- Shows more of your content at a glance.
- Stands out in the feed with extra colour and detail.
- Works on any account, because it is a normal image pin.
- Keeps your brand look consistent.
Choose a layout
The layout decides how the pictures share the space. In PinMaker, every layout has four photo areas and a text area in the centre:
- Classic Grid for recipe round ups and lists.
- Vertical Strips for travel and fashion.
- Stacked Rows for quotes and lifestyle posts.
- Hero and Three for products.
- Polaroid Collage for weddings, memories and crafts.
- Arch Frames for boho and beauty styles.
Step by step
- Choose a layout.
- Add up to four photos and adjust the zoom and position of each.
- Write a short title in the centre box.
- Set your colours and add your website or logo.
- Download the pin as PNG or JPG.
Tips for sharper collages
- Use photos with a similar brightness and colour tone.
- Pick images that show different details of the same topic.
- Keep the title short so it fits comfortably.
- Choose high resolution photos, as small images look soft when enlarged.
Publish it
Upload the finished image to Pinterest, add a keyword-focused title and description, link it to your page and save it to a fitting board. For the full upload steps, read how to make a pin on Pinterest.
