First Anniversary First Comment 5 Love Its Name Dropper
in Not Engaged Yet
1.  Are you on Pinterest?
2.  Do you pin more or repin more?
3.  Doesn't it make you hungry?

I SO SO SO want to craft right now, but I have to unpack, so Knotting about Pinterest will have to do for now :)

    I'm freakin starving and it's all because I'm repinning billions of DESSERTS.

    Cause apparently I only like sugar

    I feel that way a LITTLE bit, cause I just started my Pinterest account up.

    So like, I don't have that many pins.  Once I have more, though, it's going to be awesome for organizing my recipes and craft endeavours.  Cause I'm kinda a crafting fiend.

    I imagine it would be good for wedding planning too; I'm just not doing that yet :)

    I was that way at first, but then I started getting into it.  It's the same as looking through a bunch of different magazines for stuff you like.  Think "Better Homes and Gardens", "Modern Bride", "Style" and a whole bunch of others all rolled into one.

    And the other night, when I was trying to come up with something to cook for dinner, I just clicked through my food board and found a recipe I've been wanting to try.

    It's really simple and easy to use, and so much fun.

    I try to pin mostly, but I do both

    3.  Doesn't it make you hungry?
    Haha, not really, because I'm mainly pinning wedding stuff. I really need to work on my other boards (one of which is recipes), though.

    2.  Do you pin more or repin more?
    Both pretty equally

    3.  Doesn't it make you hungry?
    No, because the only food stuff I pin/repin are wedding cakes. The good news is FI and I agree on a cake... <---clicky... now to find someone who can make it!

    [QUOTE]Confession - I did not realize there was a difference between pinning and repinning until this thread. Confession #2 - last night I pinned** wedding inspiration pics and one of the captions on the pictures said "never too early to start planning."  I was really really hoping she was referring to the fact that it was a fall-themed wedding picture, and not that she was talking about pre-planning a wedding.  I wanted to talk the BSC out of her.   ETA: **I think I mean repinned?  Is that correct?  It was someone's picture already pinned to her board or whatever.   I hope you're all laughing at my expense.

    Yeah, I'm pretty sure there are A LOT of BSC girls on Pinterest. I see those types of comments a lot, and people will have boards titled things like "my someday wedding" or even mention they're not engaged in the pin descriptions. Pinterest totally feeds the BSC.

    I definitely repin more but I pin a lot too.

    3.  Doesn't it make you hungry?
    Sometimes.  I try to ignore the food ones if I'm especially hungry.  Where I really have to watch is pinning all the wedding related things!!

    I was completely unaware of this website until now. I apparently fail at the Internet thing too, lol. I have no idea how it works, but I'm now drooling over the pictures of the desserts that I most likely would never fit into my caloric limit unless I ate only that, lol. I'm going to have to investigate this site more! : )

    I shouldn't, because I'm supposed to be working, but ... I can't help myself!

    Drooling is an unfortunate side effect of Pinterest, I think :) 

    Oh, and spending a crapton of money on yarn & fabric is in my near future.

    BUT FIRST, I have to make curtains, dangit.  But who wants to search for curtains on Pinterest?

    Me Me Me!!! I have it and I love it. There is a link in my siggy. I would like to say that I pin a lot, but I think I'm more of a repinner. I try to ignore most foods on there, they just make me hungry. Although I do have to confess that I made some Irish car bomb cupcakes (repinned recipe) for a house warming party a couple of weeks ago and they were a huge success.

    1) I'm on pinterest! I love it. I've been pinning up a storm lately. I'll add my username later. I dont remember it and i'm on my phone. (ETA: http://pinterest.com/danieka/)

    2) I mostly repin, though I do pin originals a lot. 

    3) I have a board called "yummy" that has some awesome looking food, but i've yet to make a single thing. 

     Confession: I have a wedding inspiration folder on that site too! It's so hard to avoid the pics of pretty wedding ideas there w/out avoiding pinterest entirely. It's not like you can filter that stuff out! But once I pin, I tend not to look at that board so I don't dwell. I repin a lot of work/style outfit ideas. And a lot of home decor/ home improvement stuff as well. Love it.

    1. Yes.
    2. Both.  I'm totally a repinner most of the time because I'm not picky when I'm on there, but when I'm just browsing teh interwebz, I'm incredibly picky about what I add to my boards.  Does that even make sense?
    3. YES.  It's also caused a good chunk of my last paycheck to go to Joann's.  I think the fact that I work next door doesn't help much either.

    You ladies are more than welcome to follow me: pinterest.com/peekaboo2011

    ETA: Does it automatically make me BSC because I have a "Wedding Inspiration" board and am not engaged?  Am I required to take it down?  What's the etiquette?  HELP ME?!?!

    I really hope it's not BSC to have a wedding inspiration board . . . I have one too (it's called tying the knot).  So what's the answer ladies?!

    I feel like it might be a little BSC to have a wedding inspiration board (but it's apparently rather popular in these parts, so don't attack me!).

    I just think styles and tastes will change before I actually get married.  Plus, my BF is going to want a fairly big say in the wedding since he's 1/2 of the couple, so I want to kinda discover things together.  Cheesy, I know, but true.

    It would probably be MORE BSC to have a board of engagement rings or something and then force said BF to propose with one of them, though.  Just sayin.  Haven't seen that yet, but I'm sure it's somewhere on Pinterest.
