It seems like everyone is obsessed with Pinterest nowadays! I must admit, the bug has bitten me too. It has become the number two hole that I throw time into after Facebook.
After months of pinning I found myself in the same spot so many pinners do, tons of ideas and nothing to show for it! I needed to transition myself from this motto:
Into something a little more reasonable like: 
So I vowed to actually start working on all those great ideas that I’ve collected on all my boards. As an inspiration, I’ve created a new board on Pinterest.
Yes, I realize that sounds ironic.
But it’s not!
Because this is the board of things I’ve pinned and made. Oh yeah. I am actually making my pins happen.
Here is my most recent addition:
I saw this personalized state pillow by Red Envelope and thought it looked really cool. 
But yowzer! Check out that price tag! And the wall art version starts at $79.95. But I thought I could make a knock off so I pinned it.
And here it is ladies and gents: my very own personalized state wall hanging that I made for my sister-in-law for Christmas.
A little bit of quality time with Photoshop, a frame from Target and I’ve got myself an awesome knockoff for less than $15! Best of all, I pinned it and made it! Check out all of the other fun things that I’ve made and the pins that inspired me on my I Pinned it and Made it board on Pinterest.
