Pinterest is a virtual pin board - you create your own pin boards, browse through things others have pinned and add your favorites to your own boards, or pin up anything you find that you love from blogs or anywhere on the Internet!
For example, the bracelets below are one of the things I came across that I totally adore. I added these to my Personal Style board...
I had seen Pinterest around quite a bit on blogs lately, I was very pinterested ::hehe:: My friend Cindy finally inspired me to go check it out after sharing some wonderful things on her blog Gemini Wilder from her finds there. Now I'm hooked. I really, really love it. I need an intervention - or maybe we should call it a pintervention ;-)
It can definitely be very addicting and yet another way to procrastinate and waste time on the computer - I say after creating 18 boards and over 450 pins already. At the same time, it's a great way to find out who you really are. After looking at the boards I've created I actually said to myself "So that's who I am!" It's so much fun and so liberating!
I guess the cool thing is that's it's a place to put together our own wants, likes, needs, styles, and loves all in one place without considering others opinions. Of course we can create special boards for things for our loved ones too if we want to. The individual boards we create are only limited by our own imaginations.
Pinterest has been really helpful for my upcoming redecorating too. I have so many different likes and styles that I didn't know which direction to go. My thoughts on things were all just all over the place and mashing together. Pinterest really helped me to separate and organize the chaos, and given me some really great ideas.
If you're pinterested (oh my I must stop with the pinterest humor!) stop by my boards using the button below and then just click on each board to see details...
If you want to start pinning too just let me know and I'll send you an invitation (pinvitation, lol), otherwise you have to sign up and wait for an invite. Hope you'll come over and join me in my latest addiction :-)

Nice thoughts my friend, if I started pinning I would Pine for more board,lol.
This looks like yet another thing I'd start and get carried away with. Hmmm. I might ask for an invite though. ;)
I have heard of this, Martha, but haven't thought of getting too interested in it, especially if it could be addicting, LOL. enjoy it though!!
betty
I don't know Martha....just what I need more time to spend on the computer. And on my slow computer could you imagine? It is tempting though ;D
I would love one but is not very technical when it comes to adding things,It looks very interesting and inviting though.

I just had to repin this. These bracelets are fantastic -- gotta get me some! I haven't caught on to the pinning yet, but I think this will give me a good kick start!
Just gonna go look. If I take on anything more the cows and turtles are going to suffer.
I MUST stay away. I've gotten SOOO hooked into iphone art that I can't risk getting pulled into something else. Enjoy it...and I'll look forward to seeing some of your very favorites here.
