We spend entirely too much time clicking around Pinterest, but apparently we are in good company (looking at all of you here).
According to the site’s year-end report, there was a 75% increase in home-centric Pins this year. We also put our money where our saved images are; people who use Pinterest spend 27% more on decor than people who don’t (sorry, wallets).
