I was almost laughing reading my previous post, my massive collection of magazines was a bit out of control! It took me until JULY, count that, Feb, March, June July, yes, four months, before I got around to getting rid of my Real Simple Magazines. I attempted to start flipping through them, and then remembered, RealSimple.com, duh! I don't need to save anything! I can go find it online :)

Which brings me to the most amazing site, which my sister Carey turned me onto, Pinterest.

Remember how I said I had a file folder of all the magazine pages I kept, full of wonderful ideas? Well I think I have looked at ONE of those pages, and did NOTHING with it! Stella always seems to find them, when the drawer is open, and throws them all over the floor, needless to say, they are turning out to be more of a trouble than a treasure. SO, Pinterest is so wonderful because... It's my new "file folder" online. I can find something that I like, and "pin it" to a "board" that I have created. For Example:

for the kids board

I love the idea of first day of school pictures AND I love those sandels for little girls! So just wait another month and you should see a picture very similar to this for Eloise's first day of kindergarten :)

Garden Dreams board

I just did this to keep my plants watered while we were away on vacation, it worked!

And do you know what the greatest part of this is, when you click on the image it will take you to the website where you found it! So this means, no more searching for that one idea or recipe you found on, which site was that again?!

So, no more file folders full of magazine clippings that I will never look at, instead, I'll just "pin it"!
