In fact, search Pinterest for 'sliced cheese' and you get this and this...
How many pins are wishful thinking? We're all guilty of it. For instance, and these are direct quotes form pinners: "Need to learn to crochet" or "May need this to refurbish my dining chairs next year" or "If I'd finish covering my sofa I'd have at least one thing done on my list!" and my favorite. "So excited to try this someday!" Someday?? JUST DO IT, ALREADY!
I get it. I really do. I have so much I'd like to do and so many projects I want to tackle. However, I am out of time, money or energy. Or it simply isn't a priority.
Instead let's do as my friend Kim Wright (kipper04) did and use the inspiration to actually create something: (Left is a pin from another pinner and on the right is her adorable tower of giraffes (yes, that is what a bunch of giraffes is called! Who knew?) Aren't they adorable? Follow her. She bakes the most fabulous cupcakes!
This blog will be dedicated to those who DO with Pinterest. Send me your success stories with pictures! Let people know if all the genius ideas really are genius. Or rubbish. I'll post it all! In the meantime I will be posting some of my own successes. And failures.
Viva la Pinterest!
However, we can't do EVERYTHING we pin. For instance, my pin of Detective Inspector Greg Lestrade from BBC's Sherlock. I can't do that!
