I'm sure you have gathered from the past few posts that I am quite a fan of Pinterest.  I question when the novelty will wear off, but for me it is still running strong.  However, I do need to tie up my running dialog about my Pinterest fascination because I have a few other things that are now ready/almost ready to be published. So...in rapid fire.  #1 (flickr)  Serving and eating utensils on weathered wood. I found these weathered boards in an alley. The forks?....honestly I have had them forever, and I don't remember how they came to be mine. I couldn't resist throwing in this photo.  I had these hanging from the chandelier over my dining table for awhile. #2 (google.it) Old luggage is popular right now and.... (capitolromance.com) suitcases are showing up as a decorative item in magazines and, of course, on Pinterest. My collection is rather haphazard.  I have yet to fig...

Browsing Pinterest is like driving a highway lined with billboards of things that appeal to me and it seems to work the way billboards are intended to work. It plants the seed and before I know it, I own it.  For example: (shop.uncovet.com) I saw this and pinned it to my "neat things" board. This weekend I spotted an egg basket at a yard sale.  Yes, mine could be yellow too...or pink, or turquoise.  That may happen when the mood strikes. (And yes, I probably should have chosen a white background.  I'll keep that in mind for future comparisons.) (junktojoy1.blogspot.com) Another basket made it onto the same board. (commonground-debrasvintagedesigns.blogspot.com) In fact, a similar basket got pinned as well. Then I uncovered this in that filthy "estate" sale I told you about here . This is how it works, folks.  I will have more proof in the next post.
