1. I have recently discovered Pinterest. LOVE. Join me.
From the website: Pinterest is a virtual pinboard. Collect the things you love.
This means that I can "pin" house decor ideas/recipes/DIY directions/cute stuff for Caroline up on my "pinboard" and be able to come back and see them all organized nicely. MUCH BETTER THAN BOOKMARKS. Because I can see snapshots of images. I'm totally visual like that so it's super helpful for me. And I can access my "pins" on any computer I want.
Even better than bookmarking-on-steroids? I can see what others are into -- my friends, total strangers, and people whose blogs I regularly stalk. And get even more inspiration. Very fun.
2. On the subject of sharing ideas and getting inspiration, I got a super sweet comment today on this post:
We wanted to thank you for these great directions! We used them to make our own shelves for our nursery and we love them! You can see them here: http://mplusjequalslove.blogspot.com/2011/08/tysons-nursery-tour.html
It warms my heart that someone, somewhere out there, stumbled across this here blog and used my idea. And her nursery looks fabulous.
3. I go in waves when it comes to photography and sharing it on this blog. I get all inspired to take a bunch of pictures and use them in this blog, and then I get tired of it and forget I have a blog for a couple of weeks. I'm currently revving up to start picture-ing again here. Basically I just get inspired by the work of others and get back in the picture-taking/photoshopping/blogging saddle. We're almost there.
4. That's all. Happy Wednesday evening.
You're like the 36th person to try to get me to join Pinterest. SOON. Making myself get some other stuff done first.
ReplyDeleteI told Beth about chatting with you. She gushed about you and your sweet fam.
