I am trying to connect my Pinterest account to my blog. I cant find the Plugins tab in the dashboard.
The blog I need help with is lovetinker.com.
WordPress.com is an easy way to start blogging. Get a blog, check out our features, read the latest announcements, choose from great themes, or learn about the team behind it.

Howdy, what type of connection are you looking to set up with Pinterest?
Currently you can use our sharing tools to add a button to posts that lets readers share your posts on Pinterest. There is not a way to set up posts on WordPress.com to automatically publish to Pinterest, though.
Hi! Thanks for that information. Very helpful, but I was wondering if there was a link to direct followers to my personal Pinterest page so they could follow me on that. Like a part where it says "follow me on Pinterest' ect?
Thank you again!

We don't have a sharing setting for that specifically, but you could use a link or image widget to do the same thing!
Here's more information about how to use the image widget: http://en.support.wordpress.com/widgets/image-widget/
You could set this on your homepage (Dashboard > Appearance > Widgets), and use a caption with it (built-in feature) to say "follow my Pinterest page" or whatever you would like, with a URL for the image. You'd have to find a Pinterest image that you like (or you can use any image that's eye-catching, I suppose).
Does that help?
