How It Happened
The idea behind the series, according to Ducard, was to “show audiences how inspiration on Pinterest can move from the screen into everyday life.”
Each episode will pair a real-life Pinterest user with one of the show’s three creator-hosts. The creators will work with the Pinterest user to nail down their personal style, teach some DIY skills, and, finally, bring the ideas to life.

What to Expect
Ducard shared that there are two moments in the series that he is especially for audiences to experience. The first happens during the episode “Garage Games Room” when Nakamoto works with first-time homeowners named Sam and Jack, who were struggling to move beyond their Pinterest board to create an entertaining space in their detached garage that actually worked for them.
“What makes this episode so special is that it’s not just about a dramatic makeover; it’s about Sam and Jack truly being part of the journey,” Ducard says.
In another episode, Vazzana goes about a fashion wardrobe update for her Pinterest user. Ducard said he was on set when that moment was filmed and that “the energy and earnestness and joy of everyone involved made me feel like the show was going to be a hit.”
Drawing Inspiration
The show also has an interactive element. Viewers will be able to scan QR codes visible during the episodes, which will take them to Pinterest boards linked to each episode. The boards will feature shoppable products, DIY tips, and decor inspiration images from the show. It is these elements that Ducard hopes will resonate the most with the audience.
“Our hope is that viewers walk away feeling inspired and empowered to actually try the ideas they’ve been saving,” Ducard said. “We hope viewers see that with a little creativity and the right tools, the things they’ve been dreaming about on Pinterest can truly come to life.”
