There's no hiding the fact that I'm obsessed with Pinterest. It's the place I go to for inspiration and I certainly fine it there! It's one of my favourite social medias and I don't even use it to be social, in fact it probably makes me more unsocial ;)
When I first got Pinterest I didn't care for it much because
it looked confusing but after a while you could say I got used to it because I now have 18 boards and 2247pins.. oops? This tends to happen with all social medias, like I didn't understand instagram at first and now I have an art account and Twitter scared me.. But it's different with Pinterest. Pinterest is my selfish place where I only Pin things that I want to Pin! haha okay, I'm not trying to be selfish but it's true ;)
Hiding my love of Pinterest from this Blog would be like hiding I'm secretly a pop star and go by the name of Hannah Montana.. not as exciting? you clearly haven't witnessed the awesomeness of pinterest! :D
So here's mine:
- projects to try (24 pins)
This board is for when I find a DIYs I like but they don't fit in with my other boards. Like how to make a wand.. you know just casual stuff
Roompiration is a board filled with room inspiration for my bedroom, mainly DIY room decorating ideas. I'm kind of obsessed with room decor and I honestly don't think there's a DIY room decor youtube video I haven't watched..
Around Christmas time last year I got a little too excited some might say.. I like to call it enthusiastic participation :D In this board there's things like decor, gift ideas, treats and just all things CHRISTMASY! .. it's a beautiful place! ahh..
I started pinning Halloween costumes around august? in my Halloween board and then I found some costumes I liked but weren't halloweeny enough in my opinion, one thing lead to another and now here we are with costumes for all occasions!
- Generally awesome things (17 pins)
You know that drawer we all have that we put all the random sh*t in that doesn't seem to fit anywhere? Yeah? (haha I rhymed /).^) well this board is my "junk draw" of pinterest and I genuinely don't know what's in there aha
When I first left secondary school after my GCSE exams I got really into nail polish because it was the first time I could wear it for a week without having to take it off (which isn't actually the case because I have to take it off on Thursday for ccf and weekends for work :( ) I'm yet to try most of these but it will happen!
- art journal inspiration (160 pins)
Like I said in a previous post I tend to pick up hobbies and interests a lot and art journaling was one of them, my interest in it has faded some what as I liked watching videos of other artists creating them but never really got time to do them my own. I'll probably start again when I'm older and when I have more time.
Not really sure when or why I made this board but I'm presuming I saw some fancy lettering and had to put it somewhere :)
- prom hair styles (8 pins)
My prom was in June last year and at the time I guess I was looking for a hairstyle and voila! I probably won't use this board again but I don't have the heart to delete cause you know, memories and all
- Erador inspiration (509 pins)
Aha okay I kind of have this whole fantasy world and a story in my head that I've never told anyone about.. so I thought I'd tell a couple of random people on the Internet xD In this board I keep images that give me inspiration for my fantasy novel(s). I wont tell you anything else as I plan on writing it when I'm older and more experienced :) ((and by "in my head" I mean I literally think about it ALL the time! whenever I'm day dream (50% of the time) I'm usually mentally playing my story inside my head and creating characters, plots, histories and dynamics of my world.. is that weird? ))
- drawing inspiration (334 pins)
I use this frequently to give me ideas for what to draw when ever I have drawer's block. Oh the creativity that this board holds!
Just like I got excited for the run up to Christmas, I got excited -but not as excited- for Halloween. This board has costumes, treats and decorating ideas!
I started to get excited for autumn after watching American youtubers and seeing how "tumblr" they made it look.. and then it got cold and it made me sad that the leaves weren't autumnal colours like yellow and orange because they were all muddy and smushed together as it rains a lot so I stopped looking.. CURSE YOU BRITISH WEATHER CURSE YOU!
I am obsessed with the TV show Game of thrones and saw some pictures while I was a browsing my feed that I couldn't not make a board for!
- Fashion inspiration (145 pins)
This board is mainly what inspired my lust list and it really shows my sense in style, even if I don't own half the items to make the outfits :( but I can dream! (and hence the lust list!)
This is just where I've started sharing my blog posts :)
- hair and makeup inspiration
And the last board I have so far is where I store any picture of hair and makeup I like. I've been using this a lot lately as I'm trying to get better at doing eyeshadow and there are lots of useful pins!
Okay, so that's my Pinterest so far. I absolutely love it and think I may be addicted to it as I can spend hours at a time on it!
You'll probably here a lot of Pinterest on my blog form now on like "top pins" and stuff :)
Thanks for reading
Hope you enjoyed ^.^
Don't forget to leave your pinterest in the comment so I can stalk I mean follow you ;)

CYA!
