No kidding! I think I'm following everyone that is following me...what's your name on Pinterest?
Heh. I go by my "real" name on there. I hadn't quite figured it out when I signed up... :rolleyes: I'm under Marisol Adams if you're looking!

Thanks to Thatgirlthere I am on pininterest but I'm having trouble. How do you follow someone. And to find things do you just put in an interest and see what comes up?
ACK! You're one of my fave pinheads! Small world, indeed!
Oh, look! It's a mutual admiration pinhead society!
I've repinned so many things from you... but my absolute all time favorite was the little mouse (dressed in a serape) saying "Come at me, Ese". I laughed till I cried!!

if you PM me your email address, I can send you an invite. You have to have a facebook or twitter account to create a Pinterest account (unless that's changed). Basically you sent up boards/folders, and save images to each one. Then you can like, comment, or repin stuff from your "friends" and save it to your boards too.
Also - a coworker brought in cookies today. They were the Andes mint chocolate cookies. I recognized them right away from Pinterest, and agree, they are DELICIOUS.
Thanks Makalah! I'm in! Now to create some boards! I have to learn how first!

First you need someone to send you an invite. Then you have to set up a free account, and be logged in. If you aren't logged in, you can't follow someone, or pin anything yourself.
Once you are logged in, you just click follow in order to follow someone.

If you haven't installed their Pin It button, do it first thing. They have instructions (which were a little difficult, but doable) up under the menus. Then, when you're at a website (most will allow it, but some sites won't allow it - like Facebook) and you see something you like click on your Pin It button. A whole bunch of pictures will pop up, hover over the one you like and choose that one. Enter a description, choose the board to pin it to, choose to share it on Facebook or not and click Pin It. It should give you a message that it worked!
Yes, you can enter things you like in the search box on Pintrest (try to narrow down your search, instead of "cards" search for "christmas cards"). You should come up with a zillion - look through and click on ones you like. You can repin, like or comment on each one. You can search names of people to see if they have boards (like myself or Brandi) or search companies (certain stamp companies?) and choose to follow all or just specific boards (I follow all of Brandi's boards but only about 1/2 of the Silhouette boards).
When you want to see what the people whom you're following have been posting (make sure you're signed in) click on the red Pintrest in the middle of the top of the page. You'll see your recent pins/repins and the recent pins of anyone you're following. I'm following 23 people :rolleyes: and I have enough stuff being pinned to keep me busy for days at a time! I'm following people who have a style I love - Kristina Werner, Susan (lateblossom here on SCS), Mel (of Melstampz), Brandi.... it all depends on what you like and how much time you have!

See, this is why we love each other's pins, then. LOL! I laughed so hard when I saw that one!

Did you ever go and read the post attached to the cobra/naked mole rat picture? That is going to make me laugh until I'm an old, old woman! I might still occasionally snort from the grave! :lol:

Bonnie and anyone else - just PM me (or anyone else that has offered!) your email address. The inviter has to enter the invitee's email address for Pinterest to send the invite.
Love, Love Pinterest. I hope it stays the pure entertainment that it is and doesn't become a marketing mayhem. It's become my go-to for inspiration. You can find me here.
Decided to share my boards, although I don't have much pinned yet. I'm not a Mad Pinner. I am trying to edit my boards to a few specific things, and right now am starting to plan a bathroom renovation so I'm focusing on that. I'm also focusing on organizing my life.
Need your email to send an invite... but I'm online right now, so I could do it pretty quickly!;)
