Pinterest is one of the main drivers of my blog traffic, and I use Tailwind to schedule all of my Pins. Additionally, since I offer Pinterest Management Services I use Tailwind to schedule all of my client’s posts too.
One of my favorite things about Tailwind is that I can plan out a ton of content in one sitting. Not only will Tailwind publish my Pins at the best times for my audience, but with Tailwind Create, I can now create & publish my Pins all in one place!
*Tailwind Create will be an additional fee and pricing is subject to change.
Features of Tailwind Create
Here’s what I love (Pros):
- Each design was built with Pinterest’s creative best practices in mind – and they’re beautiful.
- Every image is unique and made just for you. I love that you can upload images that match your branding or use their stock photo options.
- You can pick from hundreds of templates and personalize them.
- You don’t have to have any design experience to look like a PRO. My pins are not made by a designer but with Tailwind Create you would never know that.
- Since automation is kinda my jam, this is a great tool to have in my pocket. There is nothing more satisfying than streamlining processes. This tool gives you the ability to do just that.
- Save and apply your brand preferences, but you can always switch it up with different styles and fonts if you want. I love palettes!
- It shows me designs I might not have thought of or that I normally gravitate towards.
Here’s what I hate (Cons):
- That this wasn’t available sooner! I have invested so much money in templates, graphic programs that I really wish Tailwind Create had been made years ago.

Wrapping Up
I am so happy that I found this new beta feature. I’ll never waste another minute downloading, organizing, or uploading my Pins! While I love Tailwind and have seem amazing results, you need to know what to expect for typical results.
