Christmas Crafting (for profit or pleasure) - MSEr's on Pinterest?

kitschkitty

Hey everyone. I've been a follower for a few years now of these boards and have loved seeing all the crafts that people have been doing for Christmas gifts and sales, and I know sometimes it's hard to keep track of where you saw the projects you wanted to make. So I was wondering if any other MSEr's use Pinterest? http://pinterest.com/
It's really great as individually or with other people you can make and share boards full of ideas and links to projects etc. I thought it would be a fab way to find and share projects between us.

Are any of you already members - have you set up any crafty boards yet? if you would like an invite feel free to drop me a PM. It's fab way to find stuff even if you're not a members too! Would love to see lots of MSE boards created there!

Some one mentioned pinterest to me a few months ago, and I took a little peek, I am hooked, I dont wwilf any more, I just pinterest!:D

The ideas are wonderful and inspiring for just about anything! I love it.

Lots of recycling and money saving projects, loads of crafty stuff for kids too.:money:

Must have started in the US as theres a huge haloween section, and lots of peanut butter and pumpkin recipies!

I've been a member for a while and LOVE it. Good idea to pool MSE craft ideas, I wonder how that would work...?

No, you don't have to share, you can just browse at what other people have shared or have found on the web.

If you create a board then it is viewable by everyone. It's not got any private boards or groups.

An idea for how the MSEr's could link together would simply be to use #MSE in your pins description so that we can search for each others relevant boards.

Hopefully we could also use this thread to share links to boards, pins or each other - whatever people feel comfortable with really.

Oh and just to add, Pinterest can be a little buggy and it's not perfect (they updated it recently), but it is a good idea, and if they iron out the little glitches it's got potential to be great!
