When I was at my daughter's home these past few days painting, she said to me in the evening as we sat side by side on her couch, "Mom, I pinned one of your photographs on Pinterest."
Keeping my utter surprise contained, I asked her, "How do you know I am on Pinterest?"
"I searched for you, Mom!" (Still in shock) "Do you want to see my Pinterest?" (There are miracles!)
As I looked at all her lovely categories involving fashion, she said to me, "You have a lot of people following you." A surprised look came over my face. "Following me? Why are they following me, and where are they following me to?"
"Oh my gosh! I'm so embarrassed. I easily get sidetracked and completely get lost. I have to open a new window just to find my way Home again!"
I'm in a bit of a panic this evening as I open my e-mail to find 33 new individuals are following me on Pinterest. Does this mean they are as lost as mE?
Please do not Pin pattern to Pinterest
I am one of those who is following you on Pinterest! Love your newest creations!

I am one of your followers too. You are always so good at scouting out the neatest crafting projects and featuring fellow bloggers. You make it look effortlessly. Hugs.
ReplyDeleteI'm a pinterest newbie and I would love to follow u too!

I think I'm a better "pinner" than I am a blogger. I have over 2,000 followers on Pinterest (out of my control and I also was a little surprised too) and I only have 61 on my lil ol blog. You do have a knack of finding great stuff. God bless!
ReplyDeleteI can't figure Pinterest out either. I am on there but have no idea what I am doing. I spend so much time blogging that I don't sare start on there too.
ReplyDeleteI completely lost track of my followers. I love knowing someone else loves what I love...smiles..Renee
ReplyDeleteyou are so wonderfully innocent! I love it! your little creations are so sweet and I love that you get sidetracked and create for valentines day in november. I say.. whenever the mood strikes.. create!! whatever it may be.. its got to come out when it wants out! LOL!
ReplyDeletelove ya E

Ya'll r a hoot! Here's the skinny on Pinterest Crafters all have some sort of idea saving system, binders, file folders, bulletin boards...think of Pinterest as your electronic bulletin board. You r not limited for wall space like at home so u can have as many boards as u can think up....Christmas, recipe etc. just like u used to tear out that idea out of a book &pin it to your board..on Pinterest u electronically pin it there. Ideas from blogs, website, etsy etc. your "followers" r the people who have similar interests so when ever u pin something to your board they see it too. On your board page you see "follow" those r the people you choose because u have similar tastes, like flipping through their idea book.. It's an amazing portal...it's how I found ya'll
ReplyDeleteI follow you on Pinterest Elizabeth :)
ReplyDeleteI went a little nuts with pinning - well, a lot nuts - it can be addictive.
Happy pinning xo
I absolutely love your orange bird! I grew up in Florida and my brother and I had toys and the record of the orange bird. I never thought to try and make my own! So cute, Elizabeth!!
ReplyDeletePinterest is so neat! Yay for your new followers! :) You have such lovely creations that so many love!! xo Holly
ReplyDeleteI've been on pinterest for quite some time and I've been pinning your blog post pictures all along. Your board is appropriately named "Cute as can be". I was excited when you finally joined and I could follow you (~~)

You are too funny E!!! I'm following you too! And I really don't care how lost we get as long as we are having fun looking at stuff!!!!! Sometimes it's hard keeping up with everything, pinning, blogging, reading blogs, finding crafts and patterns, actual crafting, commenting, checking FB...my goodness I could go on....
ReplyDeleteI love you orange bird and marching row of delivery (?) guys!
Hugs,
Sandie XO

Too funny. I'm clueless on things like Pinterest and Facebook too. Love your little orange growers figures. They remind me , when we would cross the border into Florida, we had to stop to get an orange juice served up in a little plastic orange container with a straw.
ReplyDeleteI stalk, er I mean follow you on Pinterest too! LOL! I too was clueless about followers and kept seeing them on my sidebar.. I love that there are so many who have the same silly interest I have!
ReplyDeleteBlessings

I also follow you on Pinterest & love looking at your latest pins. Your Florida craft creations are cute as can be! Love them & hope you have a fantastic week.
ReplyDeleteFunny! I found out that my blog pics are being pinned and I'm not even on Pinterest. There are so many layers to the Internet! Have fun! ♥
ReplyDeleteOn you silly people just love what you create and want to be sure and see it. I don't go over there much I need to check in. I maybe following you too as I know I am Renee.
ReplyDeleteIt's pretty impossible to keep up with everyone who follows, but it is nice to know that someone else out there likes the same things that I like. I do follow you.
ReplyDeleteI see that you are working on Valentine figurines!!! You are so ahead of the holidays! They are sweet.
ReplyDeleteI don't "pin" as I don't have enough time for all the cool things to do over the internet! I just follow you on your blog!
