Pinterest & Inspired Soldering


{pictures from pinterest}

Happy TGIF Sweet Hearts!!!!
I hope you had an AMAZING week...
I know I did cuz this week, I discovered Pinterest!!!


I'm ALWAYS the last to know right, what's UP with that??
Well, here's my theory...
I spend soooooooo much time on the computer working,
I mean like ALL day, a lot of days,
that I'm already filled with guilt about not being present.
There's Email...
Facebook...
My Blogs...
Blog Design...
Reading Other Blogs...
Photo Downloads...
Spoonin  Website Revisions...
My Kindle Fire...
The idea of one more social media to have to nurture & maintain
was too overwhelming & I had no interest at all in adding to my already full plate.
And then I actually went into Pinterest....


& fell madly in LOVE with everything I saw!!!


So here's my boards...

Sooooooo, once more I will say to you...
can anybody say OCD!!!!
I'm addicted to Pinterest!!!
I spend my nights {sometimes days, lol}
dreaming of the things I love & looking longingly at the
gorgeous images found in Pinterest, I ADORE it!


The GREAT news is, Pinterest INSPIRES me to CREATE.
So today, I overcome my fear of soldering & make this!!
{well maybe something LIKE this, lol}


{click on photo for soldering tutorial}
I'll be giving you an update on my soldering progress,
as last time I tried it was a complete failure.
Why does it scare me so???
I feel like a 2 year old...HOTTTTT!
Anyway, wish me luck & go forth & PIN!!!!

XOXO

  1. I love Pinterest too. At first I refused to be pulled in. After all, I don't need another 'time sucker'. But once I saw the lovely things being posted I jumped right in. I just started following your lovely boards, but mine are woefully empty. And, for the life of me, I can't figure out how to pin things I see around the web on to Pinterest.....

    I love your soldered piece! Gorgeous colors and textures. But when I click on the photo I only get a larger size of the same image rather than a tutorial. And it scares the bageebers out of me to--the thought of soldering with actual fire...

    Have a wonderful weekend!

  2. I too am slow to do the "in" thing but Pinterest is so much fun huh? I especially like it that you get the notices of who else pinned what you've pinned. I think it's kinda like kinship when it happens.....saw your name on my list too. Thanks darling. Love what you are doing now a days. Oma Linda
