Alright, so you’ve pinned something on Pinterest that just doesn’t vibe with your board anymore – maybe it’s outdated, or maybe your aesthetic has changed. Either way, it’s time to clean things up. Let’s unpin that thing together! It’s super easy – here’s how you do it:

Step 1: Go to your Pinterest board

First things first, open platform’s web page or app, and head over to the board that contains the pin you want to remove. You know, that board with all your lovely (or not-so-lovely-anymore) pins.

Step 2: find the Pin on Pinterest you want to unpin

Scroll through the board until you find the specific pin that you want to get rid of. Remember, no need to keep anything that doesn’t feel right anymore. Your Pinterest is all about what inspires you now.

Step 3: tap the pen icon

Once you’ve found the pin, click on the pen icon in the lower-right corner of the pin. This will open a small menu with several options for what you can do with that pin.

Step 4: select “Delete Pin”

Click on “Delete Pin”. A pop-up will appear asking you to confirm if you really want to delete it. Platform just wants to make sure you’re sure – because once it’s gone, it’s gone! Hit “Delete” again, and that’s it – the pin is no longer a part of your board.
