Very Pinteresting?

Confused by the title?

I am talking about Pinterest..it is going to change the way you bookmark  and it will  leave you inspired.

Ever since i have become a member under {Sewchicnunique} i have been addicted to it

Pinterest is a virtual pin board where you can share all the things you like, find interesting or simply bookmark. What is great about it is that you can organize it as you wish by creating boards for every category and grouping them. Sweeeeeet!

So how does this work you wonder?

When you find something you like, you “PIN” it!

By pinning something it automatically grabs the image from the website you provided and prompts you to select a board (which category you want {fashion, crafts,} whatever you want to save it as)

To get a better understanding of how to use pinterest i suggest you read the help page, which will give you a thorough explanation of how to use pinterest.

You may have noticed the “Pin it” button at the bottom of my posts circled in orange

 

Which makes it so much easier as you simply click on that button and it takes you to your pinterest page and you pin it to your board!

Another great thing about Pinterest is that you can follow other members boards who have similiar interests as yours. I should warn you though that this is addictive ~ dont say i didnt warn you!

{Edited to Add}
I cant believe i forgot to tell you that if you have a smart phone you can pin ANYWHERE TOO!

Here is my iPhone with my cute bunny ear cover

 

 

Go on check it out and let me know…hopefully you’ll thank me later :)

    I don’t go on very often, but you’re right it’s so addictive! Shall add you now.

    If you are on Pinterest leave me your username it would be fun to see what you’re interests are :)

  4. Great article! I love Pinterest!! It is so addicting and inspiring all wrapped up into one perfect package.

    I really love it but to be honest I would like the option to not have followers. Sometimes I might want to pin something but not have others see my boards as they are personal. Does that make sense. I have the Pin on my toolbar and it’s so much easier than the old bookmarking system.

      Yeah i know what you mean, i used to use the private option when i used to use delicious.com but ever since i found pinterest i am in love ♥
      But for some reason dont feel the need to use it much in Pinterest..however how about you save the “private” links in a word format or as a draft email that is what i do sometimes..

    Hi Mayya- yes I’m on Pinterest too! It is a fun and enjoyable tool. I can get lost there though sometimes.
    By the way, your bunny ears are darling!

    • Mayya says:

      Yes pinterest is a great tool but i do agree you can easily spend your time doing nothing! LOL
      I am addicted to the bunny ears i have them in all sorts of colors :) they are fun!

  7. Thanks for the introduction! I am yet to get started because I know I’m prone to addiction! I need to carve out a whole afternoon to play!
