Pinspiration~ a weekly challenge



Pinspiration
a weekly challenge to actually create something inspired by Pinterest

I have 28 boards on Pinterest and have pinned a total of 734 things. I am inspired by food, photography, style, DIY projects, things that just simply make me smile, art journaling and so much more. I have always been one to cut out pages from newspapers and magazines and I love how easily accessible Pinterest makes the things that inspire me. I have used some of my pins as inspiration in actually creating things but suspect there is a danger in the pins just becoming board collections. So I am committing in 2012 to make a concerted effort to use all that Pinspiration and share the results with you on Tuesdays. I am hoping to share two a week but some weeks it will be one, like this week and who knows I may get on a roll one week and have three or more! If you have a blog you are invited to take up the Pinspiration  and link up to this weekly post. I do ask that you keep your sharing in good taste for a general audience. Let us know if you are happy with your finished product and any pointers. Even if you don’t have a blog I’d love for you to share in the comments anything you’ve found on Pinterest that week that has inspired you. So enough of me jabbering, this week I chose a canvas as my Pinspiration.

inspired me to create this


I’m pretty pleased with it, especially for something I did in one night.  If Pinterest inspires you to create this week feel free to come back and link up below. If not this week, I hope you are inspired to join me on a future Tuesday.

  1. Not sure that I'll manage something this week....but you are inspiring me to actually try and make things from my pin boards....instead of just admiring them!!

  6. I have just started "pinning" things, even though Carrie helped me add the "pin" button to my top toolbar quite some time ago. This is a great idea for a linky party, and I really love the example canvas you have shared, Beverly. As soon as I am freed from this goofy arm brace I will jump on board with you. ;o)
