Pinterest?

Any Damsels on this site already? http://pinterest.com/ It's a way of sharing pictures of gorgeous things. I got into it via a crafts forum I use, so I am finding pretty things to make, but it is also used to share photos of items for the home, fashion, etc. You can add a doohicky to your browser so you can 'pin' items you see onto your 'pinboards' (which can be themed). Then other people can see your pinboards, and comment on them, or repin items if they like them too.

There are some beautiful items and boards on there - looky:

If you're already on there, give me a shout and I'll follow you.

Uh oh I could waste a lot of time there

It is VERY addictive. So be warned.

Requests to join take a couple of days to process. I can invite people, but I don't know if that goes any quicker.

WHAT are you like??? Get me away from that thing!

PS I made a sock bunny the other day - am having to give it away to stop it being entirely pointless, at which point (ha ha) I thought of you...

It's OK to make things that are 'only' decorative or fun, or just because you enjoyed making them. Not everything has to be 'useful'. At least, that's what I tell myself when I look at my growing collection of felt characters.

I need to go and make something useful now - a pincushion for a crafty secret santa. So I am going to ignore pinterest for now too. *must be strong, must resist*

I made a beaded ladybird once, completely useless but one of my favourite things in the world

I've requested an invitation, I am quite glad it won't come today though cause I've got loads to do

Noooo! No it's not! It's just WRONG and then my house which is already full of tat is full of more tat!!!

I mean one's house. Ahem.

At a bit of a tangent, Damz would love this one...

I like the way the font is the issue, not the excessive exclamation marks.

Love that beaded ladybird, it's so pretty. I can see why it's one of your favourites.

Ellabella, I think I am following you now.
