Pin it Forward UK

I've been using Pinterest for a while now.

I didn't realise it was an American site.

To celebrate it launching in the UK, I thought I would share it with you.

Have you heard of it? I'm sure you have, but just in case you haven't it's a pin board for collecting photos and graphics from around the web. It's a great place to save ideas and each of your visual pins links to the original post.

As a food blogger, it's also a great place to promote your recipes.

Pinterest loves food! 

I've actually started to turn to it instead of google.

Say I want a recipe for lime curd or I want to find out how to get wines stains out of fabric? I do a search and pin it!

What if I want to make my own gift boxes or find a tutorial for a new up-do for my hair. I do a search and pin it!

  * group boards I pin to
  
  

  

  As you see I have a variety of boards, but as you would suspect most of them are food related. 
  
  What boards you have is up to you. You could have a board about films, decorating, poetry, plumbing. Anything you like really.

  I'd like to invite you to join Pinterest, if you haven't already and follow my board Vegetarian food I want to eat.
  
  Get pinning folks!
  
  But one word of warning, Give yourself a time limit. It is seriously addictive and you can easily lose whole days on there. 
  
  Now before I go, I would like to pin it forward and introduce you to another pinner. A wonderfully friendly blogger, you may already know. 
  
  Choclette from Chocolate Log Blog.
  
  
  

  

  Choclette specialises in chocolate and she has some really scrummy boards to follow (which I do), as well as a wonderful blog.
  
  When you sign up, be sure to follow Choclette too!
  
  Happy pinning everyone!
