It's like you have a bulletin board that you can "pin" things that you are interested to in. You will love it when you get the hang of it and there is just so much to look at on it.

I love Pinterest. I wish it was around 30-40 years ago when I was young and could do many of the projects I see. I can spend hours on it. (I set a timer so I will not stay on for hours). I would rather be on Pinterest than facebook. I forget about facebook and end up only going on once every couple weeks, Pinterest I go to someone's board every day.

It's easy to set up a new Board for yourself. Just select "Repin" when you like something and then if it is something (Example : a Wallhanging ) and you may want a Board where you can pin just Wallhangings--then you select "Create Board" and type in "Wallhanging" and now select "Pin" and that should have now pinned that picture you selected to Repin--to a Board you just created that is called "Wallhangings". It's easy once you get going on it. And it is very addicting!

I actually like the emails that tells me who has pinned something from my Boards. I then go into their Boards to see if I want to follow any of their Boards. I do long arm quilting for others so am constantly looking for quilting ideas and pinning ideas to my Boards. I like to follow people who have the same quilting style as me. I also follow Craft Boards, too.

I love Pinterest! Full of ideas, crafts, recipes, etc. give it a chance to see what you think, at first I wasn't sure either. Once I got into it, I was hooked. You can unsubscribe from emails.

I love Pintrest too. I use it to hold quilt, knit and crochet patterns I find. Also other things, but I like to use it instead of bookmarks because it has the picture of the item. I think you'll really like it when you get the hang of it.

I love Pinterest too--I enjoy seeing all the quilts people make and repinning them so those who follow me can see them and I can check out what the people I am following are pinning. I see what my granddaughter pins--mostly house decorating pictures and tips.

Love Pinterest, it saves me from printing patterns/instructions for things I want to make. I just keep them on my boards, I spend way to much time there finding things that I want to do. People can follow up or you can follow other people.
