Pinterest

If you haven't discovered Pinterest yet, welcome.  If you have, you're already pinning and having a grand time.  Looking for inspirational ideas for your home, wardrobe, kids?  Look no further.

Pinterest is a web site dedicated to gathering pictures of stuff.  In my account, I have 6 folders dedicated to home decor, kids, great ideas, etc.  If I see something interesting in the browsing section, I can pin it to my folders.  In just two weeks I've filled the folders with such fun things.  And with a great Pinterest phone app, it's been my best friend in Dr. waiting rooms recently.  I love browsing through the stuff and gathering the ideas.

Here are some examples of what I've found.

Included in my great ideas folder:

I must do this--now!


Tension rod, brilliant!

Um....yes.
And it's at Ana-White--building plans with measurements and cutting diagrams included.

There is another picture of one built into a cabinet with doors to hide the baskets.  Like it better.




My mom is looking for bunk bed ideas for her basement.  No problem.

Simply search for bunk, and about 80 pictures pop up that have been pinned in the last few days.

Or how about home decor ideas that inspire you?

I like this kitchen, light airy, great details.
 I adore transoms and think they should be in every house.
I also love high contrast with punches of color.  Clean lines.
Yes, this is me.

Or maybe it inspires others in your life.
 I actually found a room that Gem likes.  It's okay at least.  Planning on implementing some stuff from here.
And here.

But maybe you are a quote fan.  I have an entire folder dedicated to signs.

I've laughed for two days about this.
Is your sense of humor like mine? Jon didn't get it, but Gem laughed.


Can you read this one?  When I blew it up, it looked all pixily.  The punch line says, "correct punctuation can save a person's life."

So, go pin and enjoy.

Here's the link to my files if you want to check them out.
