I have quite an unhealthy addiction to Pinterest. From the moment I found it several years ago I knew I loved it immediately. I am a visual person and absolutely adore being able to curate my own little personal exhibitions for each theme. In case you have never heard of Pinterest - quite simply it is a virtual pinboard. You can repin items from other people's boards to your own specific themes or you can pin items direct from the web. The best thing is that the pinning process keeps the original source of the image, this makes it fantastic for bookmarking things.
I now have 48 boards and add to them all the time. I have the app on my iphone and find myself pinning on the train or waiting for a friend. I have a board for this blog, my favourite places and spaces, healthy food, breakfasts, chocolate truffles, upcycling clothes. You can make boards as specific or general as you like. My Pinterest board definitely gives a broader sense, than this blog does, of the things I like.
I like to use boards when planning for a particular meal, figuring out my next craft project or for a particular blog theme. If you want to follow me you can use the P at the top right hand side of my blog or follow this Pinterest link.

In order to launch Pinterest in the UK I have been asked to participate in 'Pin it forward'. Margot from Coffee and Vanilla kindly introduced me yesterday. Do go check out her blog and her gorgeous pinterest boards.
Today I am passing on the 'Pin it forward' badge to Vicki at Mrs Petticoat, who spends her time reviewing tasty meals in restaurants. Her 'Restaurants' board really does make the mouth water.
Hope you all enjoy using Pinterest!

Thank you to Pinterest for letting me share in their UK launch.
