Pinterest Marketing: How To Create Carousel Pins For Pinterest - Pinterest Carousel Pins

Wondering how to create carousel pins for Pinterest? In this Pinterest Pinterest Carousel Pins tutorial, I'll be sharing how you can create a carousel in Pinterest with multiple images.



By the end of this video, you'll know exactly how to create carousel pins so that you can tell a story with your Pinterest pins. If you're excited about this video, make sure you like this video, hit the subscribe button and the bell to be notified every time I post a new video, and with that said let's jump right in.


We'll be using Canva to create a series of Pinterest pins that we can then transform into a carousel. If you don't have a Canva account yet, just click on the link in the description box below to try it for free.


After you've logged in to your Canva account, click on the search bar, and search for 'Pinterest pin'. Once that option populates, click on it.


If you scroll down this page, you'll see a number of Pinterest pin templates that you can customize, or if you prefer, you can select a blank Pinterest pin template to start from scratch. Don't worry too much which Pinterest pin template you choose since you can always change it later.


Once you've selected a Pinterest pin design in Canva to customize, click on it to edit it. As I mentioned, if for some reason you wish to change this Pinterest video pin template to another one, you can click on 'templates' from the left-hand side panel to start fresh with another Pinterest pin design.


Just like with any regular Canva template, you can click on any elements on the page to customize them, such as the background, text and photo, or click on any of the options from the left-hand side panel to add new photos, elements and text into your Pinterest pin design.


For more details on how to customize a Canva design, make sure to watch my video on 'how to use Canva'. I'll leave the link to it in the description box below. You can even change this Pinterest Pin entirely to fit your own brand by adding your own colors and fonts to it.


Now here's the important part: since you're creating carousel pins for pinterest rather than regular Pinterest pins, you will need to create multiple pins rather than just one. These can be all the different steps you need to follow in order to achieve a particular result.


To add a new page to your Pinterest design to transform this Pinterest pin into a carousel, click on 'add page' from the top, right-hand side of your design. You can either select the same Pinterest pin template you were using, a different Pinterest pin template or start from scratch. Follow the exact same steps as before to customize your Pinterest carousel pins.


Once you're done customizing your Pinterest carousel pins, rename your Canva design up top, and then click on 'download'. You can either save your carousel pins as JPG or PNG files, and then click on the 'download' button to save your finished carousel pins to your computer.


Since you have a number of designs, those will be saved into a zipped folder. Just double click on it to unzip it, and see each of your individual Pinterest pins which you'll add to the carousel.


To add these carousel pins to Pinterest, open up Pinterest in your browser, click on 'create' from the menu up top, and then on 'create pin'. Click in the space provided, and instead of just selecting one of the Pinterest pin designs you created, select all of the designs you wish to add to your carousel, and then click on 'open'.


Pinterest will ask you whether you wish to create a carousel or create a collage. Click on 'create a carousel', and then on 'create pin'. If you so wish, you can click on the left-hand side of your pin to edit the pin by cropping it, adding a logo or text overlay, reorder the images, or even deleting an image from your carousel.


Once you're happy with how your Pinterest carousel pins look, select a board you wish to add them to, name your pin, add a description and alt text to, as well as a destination link. You can either have the same text and URL for each image, or you can untick this box at the bottom to add different text and URL for each image. Once you're done filling out all of these sections, click on 'publish' up top.
