Stop Pinterest Procrastination!!

January 11, 2012 by

 

Who doesn’t LOVE Pinterest?? Seriously. Pinterest has changed my online experience. I now find myself searching for ideas and subjects here before Google these days. The idea of having everything in neat little pictures is such music to my order and inspiration seeking little heart. Pinterest is THE place to go for inspiration, but now I need motivation!

At last count, I have 24 boards with 370 pins on my Pinterest page. So many ideas and projects I want to work on!

“How many Pinterest inspired projects have you worked on?” you ask.

Excellent question. I guess I’ve been too busy searching and pinning that I haven’t had made time to work on anything!

Sound familiar??

It’s time to stop Pinterest procrastination!!

Here’s some motivation. I’m giving us all one week to look at your Pinterest boards and actually “do” something! Get inspired by that organizing project you pinned 3 months ago. Make that fabric flower brooch you thought looked so easy and cute. Whip up that dish that made you drool on your keyboard.

Complete one Pinterest project and then link it up next Wednesday at Overcoming Busy. Let’s see what inspiration and motivation can do!

Can’t wait to see what you all come up with!!

    hi there! this is such a great idea! It has been a while, and I am not quite ready to come up for air yet…we have a string of birthdays and co-oping school jobs still hanging around, waiting to get done…I know, the busy of the busy…but this is a great project that I believe for personal sanity needs to rise to the top of my priority list!

    I usually use my pinterest boards for inspiration. I look for great textures, colors, interesting ideas that I can build upon, and create something new. I liked your project. And I’m interested to see what others are doing!

    How are you doing Marci?-Abbie
