Whatever is keeping you from pinterest is also keeping you from being PINspired!

We’re here to tell you that getting a Pinterest account is totally worth it, and it might possibly change your life! There is so much out there to be PINspired by!

If you haven’t succumbed to the realm of Pinterest (or if you have, but you are so busy pinning that you don’t actually execute the ideas you pin) then here is a suggestion: START SMALL. Choose a craft that you have all the supplies for (or the supplies are cheep and easily found).

Then do it!

Here are some of Leslie’s first PINspired classroom projects: {Pictures are linked to original pinned source}

This took me all of 2 minutes! I just found some extra magnetic letters in my class and some fake flowers and a jar from home, and whipped this up!

When beginning the school year, I found some quotes that I loved and wanted to put them up inside/outside my class. Here is one that I simply saved, printed, and cut out to put outside my door.

Later, I came across bigger projects that I wanted to tackle like this mailbox system and a teacher wreath. With both of these, I used the picture that inspired me and turned it into my own version.  I just created it with a twist!

Although my creations are not always the same as the ones I pinned, I still love my finished projects because they were made with my special touch, and they work for me!

See it IS possible to not let pinning take over your life. It’s possible to let it be a tool to assist you in accomplishing tasks that you would’ve never thought of in the first place. It’s OK if you PINdulge every now and then, but I’m PINferring that you might’ve done yourself some PINjustice by not being PINnovative with your pinning. So use your PINtellect and be PINspired! (Ok. I’m done.. I might’ve gotten carried away.)

(We both have lots more PINspired pics and projects to share with you in the future! Keep following us!)

Happy pinning and be PINspired!

Just wondering. What do you think about Pinterest?
