Ever since I got my invitation to join Pinterest I have been addicted! I love spending time on there when I have a spare minute which always seems to turn into an hour!
I have started to organise my ‘pins’ into boards a little bit better so they are not so mumbo jumbo, and one of my favourite ones is my Words To Inspire Board… Just like the awesomely cool Inspiration Boards that Oprah always has on her show, these virtual boards I can go to look at each day or whenever I’m feeling the need for some inspiration.

What I love about Pinterest is the ability to be able to ‘pin’ pictures to your boards without having to save the websites they are from or saving the pictures to your computer (keeping your Hard Drive feel of clutter!). So when I’m looking for something that I’ve found, I dont have to go saving the website link cause if your like me, whenever I save the link I either
1. Never return to it, cause there are so many I’ve bookmarked!
2. When I go to look for the page, I cant find it!!
I’ve been using Pinterest for planning my kids parties getting ideas for everything from decorations to party games and food! I’ll be blogging about the kids parties soon, and sharing what I’ve found.
My biggest board on pinterest is probably my Words to Inspire, there are so many on there but here are my favourite three:-

This is the motto I live by….

Hey You! Yes You! Make sure you take the time to read this one….
And then there are the funny ones, there are a few of my favourites!

So what do you use Pinterest for? Are you getting all your next party planning ideas from there?
Let me leave you with this… the perfect example of Pinterest!

We are in the process of designing and building a house- this is Japan though after all so it will still be compact so I love looking at pinterest for design ideas in particular space saving ideas.
I think it would be great for food/recipes too- and I have “pinned” a couple but should go through my favourites and re-do it. Can`t wait til there is a pinterest app for androids though!
