Are YOU on Pinterest?

It seems like these days everyone is signing up for the latest social media network. Even if you aren't on Pinterest, you likely have heard of it and may be wondering what all the hype is about?

At 10.4 million users, Pinterest is the fastest growing social media site ever...faster than Facebook. Essentially, Pinterest is a virtual pinboard for inspiration!

Pinterest lets you organize and share all the beautiful things you find on the web. People use pinboards to plan their weddings, decorate their homes, choose paint colours, organize their favorite recipes etc.

Best of all, you can browse pinboards created by other people. Browsing pinboards is a fun way to discover new things and get inspiration from people who share your interests.

So, what can you do with Pinterest?

You can decorate your house....


Find yummy recipes...


Find your style...


Essentially, the possibilities are endless. It is a huge database of web images that you can search through to find inspiration. For example...lets say you were looking to decorate your table for Fall and needed some ideas. You would type in the search box: Fall table, autumn table, Fall table inspiration, Fall entertaining etc. Here are some images that come up...

There are literally thousands and thousands of images.





You can then create your own "boards". These boards are a collection of your chosen images.

You may even come across a few of my images from Keep it Beautiful. You can upload your own images and if you have a website or a blog, it will allow the person to click on the link to your website. And, the more times images are "repinned" to "boards", the more that image will appear on your first search.

Pinterest is fresh.fabulous.sophisticated. It really is a great way for people to be inspired by beautiful things around them. Keep it Beautiful is on Pinterest. Feel free to click on this button and "follow me".

I would love to "follow" you too for inspiration.
