Pin It!

Part of my internet addiction , er, interest, includes my daily reader of blogs, tweets, and news. Lately, though I've added something new: Pins.        

Through browsing blogs, I stumbled upon Pinterest, a cute little site that lets you browse pictures for style ideas, design inspiration, or just to look at things that make you happy. Initially I had no real interest in getting involved. Much like football, it was a spectator sport. One that I loved, but fully for watching and pleasure purposes. 

Then my boyfriend bought a house. 

Suddenly, there are home improvement projects. Curtains that need to be hung, pictures picked, paint colors chosen. And Pinterest had a Purpose. By using group boards, I've been able to "Pin" all sorts of design ideas and view what certain colors would look like with certain design elements. Even better, I can add notes, and invite certain people to view and comment on my "Pins" aka, ideas.


I can't help but wonder what other great uses people have used for Pinterest! Outfit of the day planning? Posting pictures of your own residence for others inspiration or even event planning? (I've seen some great wedding pictures!)

Happy Pinning!
