Pinterest Now Has A Shop So More Shoppers Shop on Pinterest

When Pinterest unveiled "buyable Pins," a way for Pinners to be able to immediately purchase the cozy blankets and stylish outfits they've bookmarked on the social network, the collective sentiment from users was clear.
Finally!
But even though the five-year-old social network now has 60 million products available from retailers, small businesses, and e-commerce platforms, not everything was automatically "buyable."
You still had to go looking for that telltale blue button on the top right corner of a Pin that signaled the item could be bought and shipped to your home.
"As a catalogue of ideas, our mission isn't to just show you those ideas, but to help you bring them to life," Jamie Favazza, a Pinterest spokeswoman, says.
