There has been a lot of chatter about Pinterest in our team threads. So, being the techno genius that I am, I decided to check it out and join. My first impression was, why do I need so many boards, am I really going to pin so many things? Where do I find all these great photos? So I decided to revisit my favorites list. And I must admit I ♥'ed many things during the past year. What a new perspective it has given me. I had truly forgotten all the wonderful items in that listing. It made me remember how beautiful I thought each individual item was and why it touched me. My life has many challenges at this stage of mature citizenship. And I was leaving all that beauty behind, forgotten.....Well, needless to say, I am up to 18 boards and having a blast. All my favorite things just make me feel warm inside and relaxed. As a few team members have now followed me, I have had a lot of their pictures to review as well. We have a very diverse team. We all have our own perceptions of what beauty is and the form that it takes. Our team has had some rough spots here lately. But overall, I have now discovered we have a lot more in common than I initially thought. Pinterest is truly changing my perspective. I've added my pinterest link to my blog. Take a look and join the fun.
This is the first time I've looked at Pinterest. Looks quite interesting and I'll have to investigate further. Thanks for the info.
ReplyDeleteYou have piqued my curiosity! I will have to take a look at Pinterest. Thank you for sharing!

Glad you're enjoying it and thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteGreat post! I haven't checked out Pinterest yet, simply haven't had time, but it looks like fun and you've definitely got me interested!
ReplyDeleteI'll check it out again, at first I thought it was just another link to add to my growing list...but maybe it's worth a look.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely post, it is so nice to see that you are really enjoying the site rather than just doing the drill!
ReplyDeleteI found myself "sucked into pinterest" several times this week. I have decided to use it only as a tool for the things I truly like, at the end of the day its fun to open it up and see the different facets of me...I've made many storyboards as an interior designer in the past and this is such a fun way to collect all of my favorite things--I recommend this site for sure!
ReplyDeleteI joined pinterest this week too!
ReplyDeleteI <3 Pinterest!! It's so much fun! I love seeing everyone's boards.
ReplyDeleteHmm, I really do need to check it out.
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice post! I joined the other day when it was having "server problems" so I really couldn't explore it much. I hope to get to it this week and play around with it!
ReplyDeleteI find it really interesting that this site could change your perspective so much. That is great!!!
ReplyDeleteI am trying to see what the buzz is about but find myself struggling to see it. Don't get me wrong I like the site, but I don't see a huge difference between any of the other social networking and bookmarking sites.
Something I will just have to give more time too.
You're right. Those Favorites often get buried.
ReplyDeleteI just joined Pinterest some weeks ago and love the founds I have made... love some items and love how it looks, always nice and beauty.
ReplyDeleteI haven't done this yet....I will have to do it soon I think!
ReplyDeleteOk I was hesitant of pinrest at first. Another thing to work on and maintain. But I am gonna try it. You have motivated me.
ReplyDeleteI feel the same way about Pinterest, it is easy to use and you can really make it an expression of yourself. Welcome to Pinterest addiction!
ReplyDeleteAll of my bloggers have been talking abut pinterest lately! It is totally on my long to-do list!
ReplyDeleteOh no, the more I read the more I want to try but have way to much on my plate right now.
ReplyDeleteYou've pinned some lovely things!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely something else I need to check into.
