love :: pinterest


Do you pinterest?? Up until a few weeks ago I had never heard of this website, However now that I have I must admit that I am well and truly hooked!

I am a bit of a visual hoarder. I love to collect images, inspirations, colour palettes, house inspirations and typography. All sorts of gorgeous images I find on the web have either been randomly saved onto my computer or added to an ever expanding pile of bookmarks. Admittedly these folders started of with all good intentions but several years later have just grown in to a series uncontrollable monsters.

However, along comes pinterest and my visual organisational obsessive trait is tickled pink! Each image you find on the internet you "pin" into a mood board of like images and it stores all the information such as the source location you initially found the image {yay for not ever losing the source of an image again!}.

You can build and grow boards of images which you can then share with others, effectively creating a network of a beautifully orchestrated delightful visual wonders.

So easy and oh so fabulous, may the visual hording long live.

You can find, view and follow my boards here.

To join Pinterest you do need to be invited, If you would like an invitation please do leave your email address in the comments field (or email us) and we will organise it for you!

  2. I am addicted to Pinterest and as a result my blog has been suffering for the past five months! It's so easy to use and everyone is friendly.

    Recommend it to everyone I know.

    Up until now I've been using Evernote which is great, but more for storing whole pages rather than just images.
