When I first signed up for Pinterest, I thought my head was going to explode.  I only pinned things that I knew for sure that I would make, and as soon as I pinned something, I would set about gathering whatever I would need to craft, bake, or DIY my way to success.

Pinterest was not just the visual bookmarking system it was originally designed to be, but rather my visual to-do list.

It didn’t help that I was pregnant at the time and had a serious case of nesting on the go.
