PINTEREST HOVER BUTTON


Happy Friday Friends!

Just popping in today to show you this really cool feature.  Run your cursor over this photo...




Did you see the Pinterest icon pop up in the center?

I noticed this feature on Kelly's blog A Swell Place to Dwell the other day, and she kindly shared the link with instructions on how to add it.  (Click on that link...Kelly has painted a really cool green dresser also.  Go Green!)

Now, this icon will show up on every image in your post, but there is a line you can add to your image code if you want to block the icon from showing up in that particular photo.  I think this would be courteous if you have borrowed a photo from someone else, so that their photo is pinned from the original source and not from your post.  

Here's the link with instructions on adding this feature if you're interested for your blog.  Be sweet and be sure to click on over and pin from there if you want to save this for future reference.  You can also alter the position of the icon within your photo if you don't want it in the center, the instructions tell you how.  Be sure to back up your blog before making any code changes just in case.  Lisa at Shine Your Light shows us how to do that here.

I think I'll give it a spin and see how it goes...

Have a great weekend!  I hope you get to relax and work on a few diy projects.  We don't have any big plans, but have a hum-dinger of a week coming up!  See you Monday.
