Pinterest

For those of you that haven't heard, there is a new website called Pinterest that is all the rage lately.  If you are a creative person at all, you've probably heard of it.  If you don't have a creative bone in your entire body, well then this site is for you!  You're welcome! 

Pinterest is essentially a virtual pin-board.  It's a website that is categorized by certain areas, such as DIY, Apparel, or Home + Furniture.  When you click on a certain category (or you can view them all at once), you will have an instant feast for your eyes.  And I mean a BANQUET FIT FOR A KING.  When you see something you like, you can click it and "pin" it to a board that you create.  You can keep creating boards as you go, and you can look at the boards you've already made.  The entire purpose of this website is inspiration.  Inspiration for what?  Creativity.  There are thousands and thousands of ideas for decorating, dressing fashionably, painting, cooking/baking, partying, or DIYing.  Since this website is free and open to everyone, you can feel free to re-create any and all ideas on there!

For example, check out THIS great idea for a back-to-school present for a teacher!


With fall just around the corner, how about THESE adorable candy corn cookies?


Here's a great idea for a pumpking topiary to decorate your front door!

With Christmas only 16 weeks away (yes, REALLY!), how about this adorable idea for an advent calendar?


Kids bored and complaining?  How about some THIS?  Easy peasy, right?


Dozens...no, THOUSANDS of ideas could be listed here on this blog.  This website is a wealth of ideas and inspiration.  If you're looking for a way to freshen your home decor, entertain your kids, or ANYTHING else, head on over to Pinterest and see what you find.

Happy pinning!
