Un-Pinspired

by kenz on October 24, 2012 in Events, Inspiration with 16 Comments

Have you heard about the Pinterest Challenge? 4 of my favorite bloggers (Sarah, Katie, Sherry & Carmel) are hosting it. You can read all the details here.

Sounds easy right? Turns out I don’t really pin really “crafty” things. The Pinterest Challenge ends in a week. ONE WEEK to complete a pin. It seems like all I post is rooms. I love getting inspired by whole rooms.

I don’t have anything I can create in a WEEK. So I don’t honestly know if I will participate in the challenge. But I still want to. Are you going to? What pin are you planning on executing? What do you think I should do?

Leave links to your favorite Pin-Crafts in the comments. PLEASE & THANKS!

I’m planning something like this: http://pinterest.com/pin/115475177915030231/. Just type up whatever quote/saying you want in a nice font, print out, and trace onto thinnish fabric. If you just backstitch around the letters you could be done in maybe two hours. Then frame it in a vintage frame.

BTW, I found you through BAH, and you guys are my two favorite new bloggers.

  Hi Tracie, Thanks for stopping by! Emma is like my new BFF too She is the best. I’m glad you are jumping in on this friendship. Do you have a blog? I’d love to follow it! I love that pin. It is super simple. Definitely something that can be done in a week.

    It’s http://www.middleclassmodern.blogspot.com. I’ve had it for awhile, but I’m the worst blogger ever. I am going to write-up an embroidery post tomorrow, and I’m doing the pinterest challenge.

      Haha, that creepy as eff hot tub room. Was I the only one scared of that secret area? Email me pictures of your swear jar!!

        Haha no it was creepy. But water reflecting off the mirrors would be cool. Maybe in a bathroom around the tub with candles! #relaxation I’ll send you pics soon! The jar is at Jers house & I’m down with the flu.

  Thanks for all the suggestions! My favorite has to be those pillows. They are wonderful. And they would look good in the basement. I may have to do that

Since I am working on my own blog, maybe this should be my first post (get a bit of stage fright for the first post!) I have tons of pins I want to do, but never have gotten around to..
