I have heard so much about Pinterest, and some of my dearest friends have told me that I should look into it. Well, I finally visited the site to learn more about it, and am so glad that I did! What fun! Thank you to my sweet friends for introducing me to the site!
For those who may not know about Pinterest, it's like a virtual pinboard. It's a great place to get inspired and to discover and share all kinds of new and wonderful things! When you join Pinterest you can set up your own pinboards... Then, when you see something on the web that you love, you can pin it to one of your boards. Among other things, people use pinboards plan their weddings, decorate their homes and organize their favorite recipes. It's such fun to browse other boards and see all of the beautiful and interesting things others have pinned! When you see something you love on the boards you're browsing or following, you can re-pin it to your own board... No matter how many times an item is re-pinned, it always links back to the original site it came from. Pinterest really is a place full of inspiration, lots of great ideas, DYI projects, yummy recipes, beautiful artwork and amazing scenery! If it sounds like something you'd enjoy, here's the link to the website: http://pinterest.com/ ~ It's very easy to join ~ Once you're on the website, just ask for an invite. They will email you back fairly quickly, then the fun begins!
I set up some boards already and am having such a great time 'pinning' and 're-pinning' all of the wonderful and beautiful things I see! I invite you to check out my boards. You can click the red Pinterest button in the left sidebar of my blog, or just click HERE to come over and visit me on Pinterest, and see the boards I'm curating... Below are just a few of the things you'll see on my boards...

Of course I have an 'Awesome Polymer Clay Art' board, and isn't this fantastic?! I just had to re-pin it when I saw it!! It was created by Kathleen Dustin:
I also have an 'Awesome Animals' board, and this amazing shot was taken by my brother Charlie, (of Charlie Prenzi Photography). Such a thoughtful look on the Gorilla's face.
I have an 'In The Garden' board, and I would love for my real garden to look just like the one I'm curating on my board! LOL!! Here's one of the beautiful garden scenes I have pinned there:
On my 'Beautiful Scenery & Awesome Places' board, this is one of the most interesting shots I've found so far...
I have several more boards, but this is one of my favorites... My 'Capturing A Moment' board. I have pinned so many great "captured moments" on this board so far, but I especially love this Happy Little Puppy!!! :)

ReplyDeleteTrina, thank you for the reminder about Pinterest. I joined months ago and forgot all about it:) I will be spending some time this weekend and checking out yours:):) Maybe even creating some of my own.
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome Kala!! Have fun this weekend browsing Pinterest, and setting up your boards! Thanks for taking a peek at mine too! :)
ReplyDeleteLove the pictures you have pinned. Your boards are so much fun to visit.
ReplyDeleteOh man, I'm completely addicted. Especially since I got the app for my phone, it's so easy to just jump on there when I'm waiting for someone.

I've heard a lot about it. I'm so afraid it would be another Internet addiction for me.
ReplyDeleteOh Trina,
ReplyDeleteI love your pins, especially the house on the rock! Is that for real?!! Come on Sher you have to join the fun. OK I admit I was a little addicted for the first week, but I have it under control now! Check out my pins. pinterest.com/cravecute/

Thank you all for your comments!
ReplyDeletePaige, I love your pins! Following a couple of your boards now too! :)
Diane, That is a pretty cool house on the rock... Don't know if it's for real, but it's a fun picture! :) So glad you like my pins, I love yours too ~ Great selections! :)
Sher, I know what you mean... I was hesitant at first too, but it really is such fun! :) Like Diane I went crazy at first, but now have it 'under control' LOL!
Mom, Glad you're enjoying my pins! :)
I am still trying to figure out Pinterest. I don't know how to pin things that I find. I have been just re-pinning from other people for now. Love your boards though! I am following you now!
ReplyDeleteHi Roberta, Thank you for following my boards!!
ReplyDeleteIn order to pin something, you have to download a 'Pin' button. It was a step at the very beginning, when I first signed up. I can't find the link now, but maybe you could email them for help, and Pinterest can tell you how do download it... Once you have it, you'll love it! :)
