Adding Pinterest Follow Button to SideBar

I’m attempting to add the Pinterest Follow Button to my sidebar on my blog. I have already been able to add the Follow my Blog button and the Twitter follow button but for some reason Pinterest doesn’t want to work. I’ve used the Widget Builder on Pinterest to get the text I need and when I add it into the “text” field for my sidebar, like I did for Twitter it doesn’t appear as a button but just as an Hyperlink.

Any ideas how to fix this? I don’t have a premium site and I would like to add this into my sidebar. Any help would be appreciated!
