So all good. And I use it a lot more now for inspiration and what not. I have pinned my own stuff - mainly book reviews and was also surprised (and chuffed) to find some of my canvasses pinned by others on there so I reclaim those into a folder of my own stuff.<br /><br />I don't know whether I would use the secret boards so much - I already use Amazon for wishlists... maybe as a list of things for others... maybe.<br /><br />Am so behind on my blog reading. We are all down with the lurgy and bubby is expelling from both ends (usually all over me!) but am getting sooo many questions from people when I'm out and about as to who made his gorgeous hat. Are you OK with me directing people to your blog?<br /><br />x x xCarmen https://www.blogger.com/profile/07968725221313800020noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8328228070357271563.post-33191441898920071102012-11-15T21:23:10.860+00:002012-11-15T21:23:10.860+00:00I'm another sporadic user of Pinterest, althou...I'm another sporadic user of Pinterest, although I do love it. I spent way too long last night, pinning things to my Christmas Journal board. It never occurred to me to pin my own designs!

And when I saw your blog post in Google Reader my first thought was a slightly confused "Sian's blog but that looks like Rinda's style..." ;o) I love our blog friends!<br /><br />You know, I never thought about having a Pinterest board for my own stuff. That is a great idea! I can't tell you how many times I've had to search my blog archives for something when it would have been super easy to just go to Pinterest. Although, going to Pinterest is never a quick in-and-out type of situation for me, IF you know what I mean. I love it, but I get sucked in every time!

I know I have missed great posts from you and Storytelling Sunday, so glad I can go back to those when I have time. I love Pinterest, it's been a great resource as I prepared for craft fairs and church gatherings. It's also been great for the future DIL for wedding ideas. When I'm stumped as to what to cook I just pop over to my boards :) I do have a board for my creations. I think I'll use the secret boards for gift ideas.Beverlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15502950142316640988noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8328228070357271563.post-53647596039618497322012-11-14T14:06:37.151+00:002012-11-14T14:06:37.151+00:00This post is full of things I want to comment on. ...This post is full of things I want to comment on. I'm going to limit it to two. #1. I'm about half way through with my Christmas list due to a stint of online shopping last night. #2. I have a board on Pinterest of things I've made. I haven't been all that good at keeping up with it. I started it because friends of my daughters requested it. Since I clear my photos off of my computer annually, I think it will be fun to have that collection all in one place.Barbara Eadshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05428834142056450340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8328228070357271563.post-23635913074083344652012-11-14T13:05:05.725+00:002012-11-14T13:05:05.725+00:00I am a sporadic Pinterest user.

I've never pinned my own stuff, but if I had a need to keep an idea, I wouldn't hesitate. I can definitely think of uses for the secret boards - like pinning ideas for Christmas gifts before you are ready to actually order, so you don't forget where you found stuff!Cherihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15398170245040387614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8328228070357271563.post-20729471439023842212012-11-14T12:34:23.474+00:002012-11-14T12:34:23.474+00:00I love Pinterest and have used it for things that ...I love Pinterest and have used it for things that I really love, I use it sporadically so I am ok with the usage and time I spend there. I am specifically going to use the boards for my own stuff, I do not put my own stuff up there, I still feel a bit show-offy about putting it on a blog and I am still not really sure why I do it, although I think about it a lot. So that feels a step too far at the moment. If I do set up a local crop which I have been procrastinating about for so long it probably will never happen, then it might make sense. <br /><br />I hope you enjoyed your bloggy time and co-incidentally.
