  Hello there,

  We cannot use JavaScript pin-it widgets or buttons nor can we install any plugins on free hosted WordPress.com blogs. They are for WordPress.ORG installs.

  You can capture an image of a Pinterest icon and upload it, link to it and display it in a text widget. I have done this here in the text widget at the top of my sidebar for those who want to follow me on Pinterest http://thistimethisspace.com/ and here on my About page
  http://thistimethisspace.com/about/

  For creating links in a text widget see:

  NOTE http://en.support.wordpress.com/widgets/text-widget/#adding-an-image

  You can upload image files by clicking the Add Media button right above the editing area of a page or a post. http://en.support.wordpress.com/add-media/

  You can also upload new files to your Media Library using Media → Add New. http://support.wordpress.com/media/media-add-new

  You can enable sharing icons below your posts by following this guide

  On WordPress.com, you can easily embed your Pinterest profile, boards, or individual pins simply by pasting the links into any post or page. http://en.support.wordpress.com/embed-from-pinterest/
