    So, I loooooove Pinterest and I'm pretty sure I'm addicted!

    1. Do you have a Pinterest account? If so, how long have you? (and if not, why are you taking this poll??) Stick out tongueYes, obviously.. I have been on it for about a year and a half.

    2. What is your favorite category to browse through? Since DH and I are house hunting, I love looking through the Home Decor section. I also browse the Health & Fitness and Food & Drink boards regularly.

    3. Have you tried anything you've seen on Pinterest? How did it turn out for you? I try most of the recipes I pin, and most of them have been pretty good. But the crafts never seem to work for me. Sad

    4. Does your SO have one? What does he/she think about it? DH is anti-Pinterest. He thinks it's silly and a waste of time. When I show him certain things (mostly stuff like home improvement ideas) he will proclaim "you can't just see something on Pinterest and think it will work in real life!"

    5. What is something you see on Pinterest that you can't stand/think is ugly? I don't understand the fascination with chalkboard paint over everything.. Chalk just makes me think of dust and messes!

  • I'm obsessed with Pinterest! I'm on it every night after work, adding new pins haha

    1. Do you have a Pinterest account? If so, how long have you? (and if not, why are you taking this poll??) Stick out tongueYes

    2. What is your favorite category to browse through? Kids Big Smile I love all of the baby stuff!

    3. Have you tried anything you've seen on Pinterest? How did it turn out for you? I have tried most of the recipes I pinned to my recipe board, and everything except for maybe one recipe has turned out really well!

    4. Does your SO have one? What does he/she think about it? No he does not, and I'm not sure he even understands it haha

    5. What is something you see on Pinterest that you can't stand/think is ugly? I can't stand all of the religious stuff on it. I don't have anything against religion, it just bugs me when I see "prayers to say for your husband", "prayers to say before your wedding", "prayers to say for your children".

    6. Will you put your account name here so fellow Nesties can find/follow you? I would but my last name is on it and I've heard that's a no-no to do around here haha


  • 1. Do you have a Pinterest account? If so, how long have you? (and if not, why are you taking this poll??) Stick out tongue

    Yes! Since summer 2011 

    2. What is your favorite category to browse through?

    Crafts, scrapbooking ideas, party planning, hair and make up tutorials, home decor ideas and vow renewal inspiration.

    3. Have you tried anything you've seen on Pinterest? How did it turn out for you?

    Yes, tons of hairdos, hair advice on colors and products. I dyed the tips of my hair shades of pink and purple last year, the inspiration picture came from Pinterest. Then I collected quite a number of Valentine's day projects to celebrate anniversaries and Valentine's day 2012. Then there are scrapbooking ideas that I copied directly onto my scrapbook. All great successes :)

    4. Does your SO have one? What does he/she think about it?

    He does, we both pin onto our vacation homes board and travel destinations board. He doesn't use it as much but likes it okay. 

    5. What is something you see on Pinterest that you can't stand/think is ugly?

    I can't stand coming across my wedding pictures that have been pinned from the blog where they were featured. 

    6. Will you put your account name here so fellow Nesties can find/follow you?

    I'd rather not, I tend to protect my accounts from being linked. 

    edited the ugly wall of text 

  • 1. Yes! i've had it since the beginning of this year.

    2. I like browsing through "popular" and "everything".  There's just too many cool items to keep it limited to one category!

    3. i tried a couple recipes and workouts. i'm planning to try a couple wedding crafts (3 hole punching our cards and putting them in a small binder/book)

    4. Yes - he peeks VERY occasionally (mostly for technology items). for the most part i just show him cool/funny things on mine =)

    5. some of the outfits and "must have this!" items that are just......dumb. also i hate finding a cute item and going to purchase it and having it sold out because it filtered through ALL of pinterest. haha

    6. Of course!  I have a wine charm shop and post occasionally....though my pinterest is a lot of random items with only a few of my own thrown in. pinterest.com/charmedbywine

  • 1. Do you have a Pinterest account? If so, how long have you? (and if not, why are you taking this poll??) Stick out tongue  Yes, I got it a few months before my wedding, so maybe April? I'm glad I didn't get it any earlier, or else I would have added too much stuff to my wedding!

    2. What is your favorite category to browse through? Home decor

    3. Have you tried anything you've seen on Pinterest? How did it turn out for you? I've tried out lots of recipes and a few DIY things! Most of them turned out really well. I actually have a board of pins I've tried: http://pinterest.com/kipnus/did-it/

    4. Does your SO have one? What does he/she think about it? Yes, but he doesn't go on it very often.

    5. What is something you see on Pinterest that you can't stand/think is ugly? I hate the super long pins that go on forever. I also get sick of pet stuff/puppy pics.

  • Yes, I do have a Pinterest addiction, and have had for about a year now. 

    I like browsing through Halloween stuff (that's my favorite holiday), but typically I just browse through my friends' pins and boards I follow. 

    Food - not so good for me, but I got a lot of my wedding ideas from Pinterest and they turned out great!

    My husband does not have an account - he thinks it's for women.

    Amen on the super long pins - also, the low-res pics. Blech.
