Pinning For Love!

Ladies and Gents... The Envelope Please... And the Winner is...

But Wait! First... A few accolades are in order! There's no guesswork necessary. No more Post-it notes pasted to the fridge. No more bread crumb trails leading to your favorite list of things buried in the crinkled pages of his/her book. No more claims of amnesia (ha!).

Fast forward to a 21st Century Valentine's Day. Allow me to introduce you to... The Power of Pinterest Love! Where anyone (and their brother) can discover what you love, or what you've been dreaming of (at the click of a pin). It's easy, breezy, peasy!

One of my favorite Pinterest Boards, appropriately titled, 'Miss Mel', allows inquiring minds to take a personal peek at the fashion pins that interest me. Here's an example of what they might find:

MISS MEL PIN

HERE'S THE GIFT

Pinterest takes the spin out of the pin!

HERE'S THE RESULT

A collection of faves!

SHE LIKES!

It's a V'Day win!

LOL Mel never thought about using Pinterest as a shopping list. And BTW you can drop that outfit off at my house too.

Mel-Love your Miss Mel board, VERY YOU. I love Pinterest, I see so many wonderful things on there from all sorts of areas, I can spend a lot of time on there if I let myself. It is a positively pin popping addiction

Mel, Pinterest became my new bestfriend about a month and a half ago. I got quite obsessive about it. Mostly, I just pull from my gobs of photos...spending hours upon hours.

Lately, real estate STUFF has taken most of my time, so I haven't pinned lately, but need to.

I'll have to go peruse your boards when I come up for air.

Happy Heart Day

Pinterest has become my substitute for late night tv when I'm winding down from my real estate stuff... Gayle ;-)

Go for it... Tammy! Your pins will give your Donald an excellent idea what on what floats your boat in Lake Sinclair ;-)

It was a nice surprise indeed... Kevin! I'm coming over to see what you're up to!

I can picture you stylin' in these outfits too... Andrea! You're my kind of gal ;-)

Thank you Sharon! I have a lot of fun with it. I'll stop by and visit you too chickypoo ;-)

You have some great stuff on your Pinterest Boards Mel. At first, I was reluctant to join Pinterst thinking, "Why should I post a bunch of pictures online?" Well, I was wrong-o and have come to learn how much fun it is. I'm finding a wonderful place to build and share boards of things that interest me and maybe others as well. So, as I said it is fun, but can also be used as a good source for Social Media and business. Balance...

Very creative blog:)

I see your enjoy Pinterest:)

I'd love to have as a gift any of those 'Travel dreams' I collect there, it would be nice:)

Awww... thanks Jeffrey! I thought the same thing at first... reluctant to play with Pinterest. I shut off my tv a year ago (by choice) and the silence drove me to pin ;-) Having lots of fun with it... glad you are too!

Thanks Inna! I plan on visiting many of those 'Dreamy Places' ;-) Did you get a new pic? Very cute!
