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}

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!!!!

W.H.O.A. Women Helping One Another

Have you ever said to yourself..

WHOA!!!

Well lately, I've been saying it quite a lot & here's why...

A new blog is coming out, the brain child of my dear friend

Jenelle Van De Mortel

& the concept is beautifully simple.

W.H.O.A.

Women Helping One Another.

I have been touched by WHOA, as I'm sure so many of you have.

I know from personal experience, that the women in my life

have truly been...The Wind Beneath My Wings!

When I first starting blogging a few years back after looking through a

gorgeous Artful Blogging magazine, having never even read a blog before,

it was the kind & generous comments from my friends that encouraged me

to continue & in doing so, opened up a world of unknown possibilities to me.

WHOA is the soft nest we can land in as we start a new business venture

or try to accomplish something that's been in our heart for a long time,

but we just didn't feel secure enough to take that leap of faith.

Jenelle's goal is to create a community of women who will be

there for each other to offer support & encouragement,

networking & advice, contact's & idea's.

A place women can go, to truly feel unafraid to speak their dreams out loud.

A place where they will be surrounded by love & positive energy.

A place where each & every one of us can find JOY in knowing

we are a part of something so very special, as we watch

our sisters Spread Their Wings & Fly!

W.H.O.A.

Women Helping One Another

Such a simple concept, something we do everyday without even thinking about it.

And the key to this groups success is going to be, you & me.

It's US. The universal US.

Jenelle is going to be a Guest Curator at CRESCENDOh

on January 16th & I hope you all take this chance to get to

know her a little better. Check out all of her talents & the

things that shes involved in, but most importantly...

head over to WHOA & become a follower.

Together, you & I,

we can make dreams come true.

We can change someone's life.

I know you all changed mine!!!!

XOXO
