Pinterest= The New Inspiration File
Remember one of my first blogs on inspiration and how to keep it? I joined this little site called Pinterest before it became big. The problem= I never did anything with it and I forgot I joined it until it became “the thing”.
Haven’t heard of pinterest? Well, it is this fabulous site you can keep store all of your inspiration from around the web into one place. You can follow inspiration your friends, bloggers & family have gathered too! It’s basically a virtual bulletin board of all of your favorite images! You can break down your inspiration images into categories to keep it organized & easy to maintain! One thing- you have to be invited to another user to be a user yourself!
People are using Pinterest to plan their weddings, decorate their homes & keep neat recipes.
I thought I might show you what I have been up to on Pinterest today. I have several boards going on and I have had an absolute ball pinning my favorite images…
I have 14 categories {and counting}… but I thought I would just show you a few for fun!
– Love this idea of a wall full of white plates…
– Great reading nook on the stairwell…
– Use jars for colorful flowers…
– Mix peach & pink flowers together in a vintage vase…
– I am going to make one of these for my sketch book…
– I have to paint a nightstand/ table with descending shades like this… adorable!
– Use a shutter for to organize mail {great for laundry/mud room}…
– Bright flowers & plenty of them…
– Fun colorway…
– I love these pieces…
– Great fall/winter outfit…
