The Amazing World of Pinterest

Pinterest.  Pin interesting stuff.  Electronic bulletin board.  Idea box.  Whatever you want to call it, Pinterest is an amazing site.  It is a place for ideas, projects, visions, helpful hints and so much more.  It is a place where you can feed your obsessions.  Where you can share those obsessions and find others who can obsess with you.  You can get ideas to spark your creativity.  There are thousands of decorating ideas for both inside and outside your home.  You can see the latest fashions.  Learn a new hobby or craft.  Or you can just appreciate the beauty of art, nature and people.  Pick out some new recipes to try for everything from snacks, meals, desserts to cocktails.  Gather a visual bucket list.  Organize your to do list.  Share your ideas and successes with others.  The possibilities are endless!

A while back, my hairstylist and friend, April, told me about Pinterest as we were chatting during a regular appointment.  It sounded intriguing and I made a mental note to check it out.  A few weeks later that note cycled back through my memory and I looked it up.  Find Pinterest Here.  I registered for an account and learned how to navigate through the site.  It was like the BEST Christmas morning EVER!  There was so much to see.  So much I wanted to do.  A few minutes turned into an hour.  My few boards had to be split and multiplied into more defined categories.  I was having a ball!  My creative brain was firing on all cylinders and I was ready to do it all!!

Fast forward to a couple of months later and I am still pinning like mad.  I have my Mom logged in and continue to gather more of my friends into the wonderful world of Pinterest.  I have been ever so helpful in getting wedding ideas and baby ideas for many friends in need.  I have told Prince Charming how much money we can save if I start making cleaning products at home instead of buying them.  And I have begun trying all the new recipes I have been drooling over.  There is a whole beautiful world out there and it's on Pinterest!  Check it out, I promise you won't be disappointed!
Pinspired!
