Getting schooled in Pinterest

I mentioned the other day that my friend, Mara, was going to show me how to work Pinterest. I have had an account for years, but to be honest, found it a bit overwhelming to use -- so I stopped. That was until Friday when she showed me how she uses it. Seems I was doing it all wrong! I was following folks and just sticking to the home screen. No wonder I could never get anywhere. Mara showed me how to use the search button to find different things I am interested in (for example, wine crafts), then from there I could pin the items I wanted to my board. Eureka! I spent yesterday morning cruising around Pinterest, and found it much more to my liking this time! I found some really great wine cork crafts on addition to a multitude of recipes I can't wait to try. Thanks Mara, for the Pinterest lesson! No I am off to do some more pinning!
