Yesterday, Pinterest unveiled the top pins of 2013, organizing them into 25+ categories, with 20 or so pins included in each.
Pins included in each category, according to Pinterest, were chosen based on the total number of re-pins they accumulated from Pinterest users over the course of 2013. These pins shed some light on what consumers were thinking about this year.
Highlighted pins from the Pinterest blog include:
- Taco cupcakes, churro waffles, and beer-candied bacon (pictured, right) in Food
- The Caves (Jamaica), a geothermal spa (Iceland), and Temples (Myanmar) in Travel
- Refurbed bikes, souped-up trucks, and The Chevy Stingray in Cars & Motorcycles
- Treadmill plans, medicine balls and yoga poses to detox in Health & Fitness
- Ikea hacks, pallet walls and grey paint color schemes in Decor
- 3D printers, wearables and motion sensors in Technology
We advise brands to pay attention to Pinterest trends, as they help give marketers a sense of what is hot, and what types of visuals are more likely to be re-pinned more often.
Here’s wishing you much success with Pinterest in 2014!
