Friday’s Favs – Magnetic Makeup Board

I know I talk about Pinterest too much, but it’s such an amazing place to get inspired and quite frankly I’m probably at the peak of my craftiness right now because of it.  Anywho, a while back I saw a DIY magnetic makeup board on there, the idea is genius!!! Not only a space saver since makeup is now stored vertically but you see exactly what you have.  Honestly I have no idea how I got my makeup on before.  When I decided to start this project it kind of took on a life of it’s own, the entire bathroom got face lift.  New paint job, window, lights, shelves  and I’m still putting on the final touches but couldn’t help by sharing off the board here today.

The way I made mine is pretty simple since I just bought the actual board at Target and an additional magnetic strip on Amazon.  Then I purchased a bunch of magnets and hot glued them to the back of my products.  and there it is!!!  I absolutely love it, and actually look forward to getting my make-up on everyday!

Would love to hear your thoughts!

Fridays Favs – Pinterest again

Why, Social Media as well as Pinterest are the greatest?  A couple days ago I found this most amazingly delicious looking photo with the most delicious sounding recipe for red velvet crapes on Pinterest!  I couldn’t help myself, so I pined it to my “food” board (which honestly should just be called “chocolate obsession”).  Anywho, [...]

 

Why, Social Media as well as Pinterest are the greatest?  A couple days ago I found this most amazingly delicious looking photo with the most delicious sounding recipe for red velvet crapes on Pinterest!  I couldn’t help myself, so I pined it to my “food” board (which honestly should just be called “chocolate obsession”).  Anywho, that wasn’t quite enough I also tweeted it and liked it to my facebook page.  You want to know what happened next right?  I thought so.  I had every intention and still will make these myself!  My favorite breakfast place owner is a facebook friend.  Guess what peeps? I will be enjoying these tomorrow morning at Flury’s and I didn’t even have to leave my desk to make it happen. And I didn’t even make it happen on purpose.  I LOVE you PINTEREST, FACEBOOK, TWITTER!!! and I LOVE you Kim White!!!

Follow all my boards here and this delish recipe can be found here.  Happy belated Valentine’s Day my loves!

Fridays Favs – Pinterest

Do you like pretty things, are inspired by pictures, do you buy wine based on the label, do you enjoy a little Shoe Porn, or perhaps love to cook or decorate?  Pinterest.com is for you!!!  You’ve probably heard something about it before.  One of your girlfriends has mentioned it I’m sure, but you haven’t made [...]

 

Do you like pretty things, are inspired by pictures, do you buy wine based on the label, do you enjoy a little Shoe Porn, or perhaps love to cook or decorate?  Pinterest.com is for you!!!  You’ve probably heard something about it before.  One of your girlfriends has mentioned it I’m sure, but you haven’t made the leap yet.  Well, today is the day!  Do it, join the Pinerest Community.  It’s the best social media website out there (YES better than Facebook), and you need to be a part of it.

If you are a bride, a mother, a teacher, a wife, a sister, a designer, a photographer, a WOMAN or a man you need to be on Pinterest.com!  It’s that simple!!!  It is basically a Virtual Pinboard.  Anything you find online you can pin to different boards that you create.  You can follow other people’s boards to see what they are pinning. You can search the pinterest site for already pinned images.  It’s be best eye candy out there, and the best part is that most pins take you right to the source, to that recipe of some delish desert, or the store where you can purchase that perfect pair of shoes, etc. etc.  Not to mention everything you LOVE is in one spot, genius!!! If you are a photographer than this is more than a must.  It’s one stop shop for any/all inspiration.  But I do have to warn you it is super addictive, you blink and hours have passed but you’ve seen so many gorgeous things and got so inspired so it’s not a total time killer.

Here’s something I discovered today, to see what images are pinned from your own site, or any site you might be interested in, type in “http://www.pinterest.com/source/(insert domain name here)”.  To see what images have been pinned from my site, I go to http://pinterest.com/source/janickiphotography.com.  Kinda fun to see who is pinning what!

If you would like to follow my boards you can find me here!  Start your pinning peeps!

Just a little pinterest eye candy I’ve been talking about!
