It's An Issue

If you are easily distracted or can get sucked into the internet for hours on end reading and looking at a variety of fascinating and creative things, do yourself a favor and stop reading now.

Seriously.

OK, consider yourselves warned. What happens next is your own dang fault.

I'm not kidding.


Have you heard of a little website called Pinterest? If you haven't - be prepared to spend about the next 6 hours straight on it. It's a site where you can pull and collect images from the internet that inspire you for whatever reason, and store them all on a "board" of your making. All in one place. Home ideas, recipes, fashion, art, photography, DIY projects, pets you want, places you love, vacations you want to take, things you want to try someday, you name it. Anything you want, basically. Oh yeah, and you can look through everyone else's boards too. Yeah. there goes your whole weekend.

You have to email Pinterest to request an account and they will email you in a week or two with an invite to join. I found it through that darn Sherry at younghouselove. Darn her. And through her blog I found this link, which allowed me to join right away (scroll to the bottom of that post for the direct invite). Don't know if that link will still work. You kinda should hope it doesn't if you have any hope of every doing anything else again.


Happy Pinteresting!

Can you pull the inspiration board to your blog? If so, that answers about 100 questions on how the heck people come up with these style boards they post!

Sincerely,
clueless.

Hi Hannah -
I have no idea. :-) It took me about a half hour to figure out how to put those screen shots of the pinterest website into my blog post. I bet those style boards get made in something like photoshop. However photoshop works.

Equally clueless,
Kate
