Collections let you bring Posts and Recipes together around an idea. Use them as private working boards or publish them so the community can browse and save the set.

​
Build a collection around a look

A collection is useful when the selection itself tells a story. You might gather several soft, low-contrast Recipes for quiet mornings, build a travel reference around one camera, or collect Posts showing how a style works across different places. The Posts and Recipes inside remain owned by their original creators. A collection organises them; it doesn’t copy or take ownership of them.

​
Saved Items or a collection?

Saved Items are always private. Collections can be private or public.

​
Create a collection

  1. Open the create menu and choose Collection, or create one from Saved.
  2. Add a clear name.
  3. Add a short description explaining what connects the work.
  4. Add useful tags when the collection will be public.
  5. Choose public or private visibility.
  6. Add Posts and Recipes.
New collections are private by default. You can change the visibility later.

​
Add work from the community

Open the save menu on a Post or Recipe and select the collections it belongs in. One item can sit in more than one collection. Because collections point to the original content, people can still open each Post or Recipe and reach its creator. Removing an item from your collection doesn’t delete the original.

​
Share a creator collection

Public collections appear on your profile and can be discovered through Search or Explore where relevant. Other people can open the collection, browse its contents, and save the whole set for later. Public collections work best when they have a specific point of view. A focused collection gives people a reason to follow your taste as well as your photography.
