I am wondering whether anyone has joined Pinterest and whether it is worth while.
Thanks

I've eard of it but haven't gone beyond that. Not sure I can fit anything else in right now. I'm considering opening a vendorshop on facebook for my Hollyhocks store.  :-\ I think I'm crazy!

I have a lot of friends addicted to it, so I'm avoiding it like the plague.  I have too many time killers already.

I'm on Pinterest but honestly I usually forget about it except maybe one day a week.  I do find it fun to use when I'm browsing crafting sites and I want to "pin" it to remember for later.  This year I used it to save what I wanted for Xmas, recipes to try and crafts to do with the kids.

Hi,

I am a Pin It person as well. Easy to Pin pictures (picture are linked to their site)... I have the Pin It on my Bookmark Bar.

When I want to pin a picture, I highlight the title, click on the Pin It button, a small window pops up with the picture and the highlighted text already to go...

I add a few tags (#HAFshop) and a price if there is one ($10.00). Choose a board to Pin It to... and Boom! All finished! Quick, simple, and you will have others that repin your pins! I hope all that made sense.

But, I understand having to much on ones plate... sometimes you food will get cold!  LOL 

I have a HAFshop board also!  Have a super Holiday everyone!

I just started earlier this week. I don't if it will help. I definately need to watch how much time I spend on the computer and not sewing.
