    So I just requested for an invitation, you girls will have to help me out with the ropes on this one. Do I just click and stuff? No need to upload pictures of what I like? I guess I'll see once I actually get the invite!

    And what a yummy dinner Cab!

    It works faster if you have someone already a memeber invite you. I sent you an invite using your FB email. :) You basically pin all the ones you like. You can put them in folders based on what they are.

    Kara and Shan, to pin new things (instead of just repinning other stuff people pin), install the "Pin it" dealie to your favorites. Then when you're on anthropologie.com, you can pin all the cute stuff you want but can't afford. (edit--that might just be me...)

    Click the "About" button in the upper right corner and select the "Pin It button" for install instructions. Then when you want to use it, just make your bookmarks visible (shift+ctrl+B is the shortcut) and pin away!!

    Hey ladies!  I haven't been around much. 

    I absolutely love your calendar Shan!  I have only made food that I've found on pinterest.  Haven't actually tried anything from my projects board.  I do plan on making some cute DIY clutches that I found on there to make for my BMs.  I love being crafty.  So I go kind of pinterest crazy when I have time :)

    I didn't know about Zooey and her husband separating.  I love her!  That's kind of sad.

    I'm just sitting here watching parenthood.  FI is out of town for a few days so I'm at his house watching the dog.....who hates me.  Fun.

    I've got the Pin It installed. But it doesn't let me put my own pictures or pictures from facebook. Apparently I need to be a blogger. LoL

    Hey ladies!!

    I love pinterest! It's addicting and makes me want to spend loads of money to do DIY crafts and decorate the house. Speaking of which, I did take some old wine bottles I drank and sprayed them with adhisive and rolled one in epsom salt and the other in glitter and I'm pretty proud of myself! :)

    How's everyone's night?

    CAB - That really sucks about your insurance! Ick! I'd be pissed!
    Sami - I hope they get your ring to you soon! Freaking shipping, we got FI's in about 4-5 days so I wonder why the heck its taking so long!?
    Irish - Those are seriously adorable!
    Shan - How nifty! I love it! I might have to do something like that for my office, I'm over my stupid paper one and how expensive they get!

    amh, that sounds so cute!!! I wind up with so many empty wine bottles but H would probably be like, wtf is this smutt cluttering up the house? He's not into decorating...
    image
  • edited December 2011
    Yeah, FI doesn't really care - if I didn't decorate then the house would be bare. He likes how it looks afterwards, but gives me funky looks when I talk about doing it so I just do it when he has duty nights (at his command they just work late, no overnight duty nights since he isn't on a ship) and then he comes home to it all done. lol. I had to do something with all my bottles aside from putting them in the recycle bin :)

    My FI is the same exact way.  I think most of the things I end up making on pinterest will end up being presents for other people because of this. haha.

    amh- have you seen the pin about how to cut wine bottles?

    haha I think all men aren't into it... just some are okay with it and some aren't. H always says this house would be empty had I not moved in, but he loves what I've done (everything is gender neutral so I should think so.. The only pink/purple in the house is in my closet). I can't handle clutter though. I like big open spaces and he is a packrat! -_- painful. lol

    I have, I can't wait to try it! I want to do that for maybe a vase, or some candles! Our kitchen is completely all about wine so I think that it'd be pretty neat to do and put it on our table or something!

    Man! I always miss they chit chatty topics. 

    UGH! I had a test that just about killed me. Today, I didn't think it was going to be bad because the last exam wsa pretty straight forward. Crap, this exam was hard. The multiple choice  not only did you have to pick the right answer, but another part of it was on the line under the question you had to justify your choice. Oh man, it really makes you think about what  you memorize and what you actually know. UGH! And that was only the first part.

    Then I went to mass for the holy day, it really calmed me down after wanting to hurt someone. I then was in meetings until 30 minutes ago with my business fraternity, not so bad, but when you have been up since 5:30 you just want to get in your sweat pants and put your feet up..

    Oh, and just now he tells me, "so help me, Ana... if this isn't good enough for the teacher, wedding OFF!" LMAO! I hope I made the grade, guys! HA HA HA!

    Ugh his idea of decorating is a black comforter on the bed. For real? I told you I bought a new shower curtain and he flipped out right? Haha it's gonna take some work. He's just so "practical" but its like, calm down. It's just a pumpkin.

    Anyway, spiffy, I'd like to come to your wedding if you dont mind. Or at least see some deats of this wine theme!!! Love that idea!

    Irish- absolutely!  I looove wine.  It helps that the county I live in makes up about 72 percent of the grapes in all of Pennsylvania.  So plenty of wineries and goodness :)

    As for details.  I'm trying not to go too overboard on the "wine" theme but I've had some really good ideas that I can't ignore. haha.  We are getting married at a winery outside in the vineyards.  Plenty of wine tasting afterwards.  The color wine from david's bridal is our color scheme along with gray.  Bottles of wine as favors.  Wine bottle centerpieces.  Wine glasses on the cake holding up the second tier.  Possibly cork escort card holders.  The list goes on :)
