Pinterest...the anti-housework tool. It's one of those things that I say "I'll just be on for 10 minutes and before you know it, the day is gone and I'm craving avocado fries after pinning so many food items. I love it, though!
If you are not on Pinterest and need an invitation, leave your email address in a comment below or email me at va_voomvintage@yahoo.com and I will send you an invite right away...and then we can be unproductive together!
This morning, I added a "pin it" button for pinterest to all of my blog posts so if you see something you want to save for inspiration later, you can click the button below the post and stick it on your pin board. Voila!
I used this simple tutorial for how to add a pin button to your blog posts. It only took about 3 minutes and was very straight-forward.
Follow me on Pinterest to see what's inspiring me and check out pins from my blog
oh heck that is a sucker of time! I have joined but I'm avoiding it right now as I know I'll just spend hours filling my folders!!
ReplyDeleteI also have not gotten to into "pinning" since I can already destroy a day quite handily just with blogs and youtube. I'm just so interested in every vintage beauty tutorial I find, and next thing you know, I've spent two hours watching videos. I'd start murdering evenings too with one more thing keeping me in my chair, lol.
ReplyDeleteyea, someone new to follow. It is so addictive! I look the other day and was amazed/slightly horified that I have 50 boards and over 2k pins!! (and I have only actually finidhed 2-3 of the projects I have pinned so far).
ReplyDeleteBut I love it :)
I've been using Pinterest for quite some time but have still not really delved too far into the actual site. I've mainly used it to catalog things I'd like to remember from other sites. And you are right, the few times I've gotten lost looking at other pins I've practically needed to be pulled out of the hole! ;)
ReplyDeleteI'm a total sucker for Pinterest. It's a great way to keep track of all those bits of inspiration from around the web without having to bookmark a million pages and have folders full of saved images. I do lose hours of my life to it though hehe

I am so NOT going there girlfriend! I spend way too time on this contraption without adding Pinterest...no matter how alluring it looks!
ReplyDeleteOnce you pin you can't stop! I did a post about this last week :( I'm now following you.
ReplyDeleteKonad-licious, you have more self control than I do! :P
ReplyDeleteI am a total pinterest addict now, too. Help!
ReplyDeleteI'd love to know how you got the 'see what else is inspiring me on Pintrest' or something like that button on the left of your blog page. I'd like one on my page :)
ReplyDeleteI think Pinterest is excellent. I like to source the pictures in my blog and Pinterest makes that easy. And I can "store" pictures for later use.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the link to the tutorial- I have been wondering how to do that!
I've been considering this for about a year, but I'm really thinking about all these places I join and spend time. I don't have much time, since I'm working fulltime and being a homemaker when I'm not. BUT - it seems so lovely when I see other members' boards. So please invite me at:
