In Which We Expand to Pinterest

Yep, we started using Pinterest. We are still trying to figure it out though, so be patient with us if you are following us already.


If you aren't following us - there is the link. And if you don't have a Pinterest account yet (and you want one, haha) - let us know and we will invite you to join. :-)

So far we have five "boards" on our account.

1) Blog Activity - Here we pin links to our blog posts, starting with the AGPLA video post from February 29th, 2012.

2) Great Etsy Items - We pin wonderful doll-sized Etsy items that we find. We used to do a bunch of them on Facebook everyday, but that was probably annoying. So we'll only do a few Etsy finds a day on Facebook - in their own photo album now, fyi. And we'll post more Etsy finds on Pinterest. That way they are less annoying and easier to find.

3) Trends to Sew - Here we'll be posting human items that we will discuss or have already discussed in our "Trends to Sew" blog posts. We'll also link to those posts on that board once we get more organized. Right now some O'Neill items are sitting there - they serve as a teaser for our upcoming March post on this topic. :-)

4) Exciting Patterns - When we stumble upon a doll-sized pattern that looks intriguing, we'll pin it to this board. We already have several up. Everyone knows Liberty Jane offers a lot of cool patterns - but there are more "hidden" places to find them, including Etsy!

If you know of patterns that you'd like us to shout-out on Pinterest, feel free to comment about them below. :-)

5) Doll-Sized Craft Project Ideas - We just started this board when we found an idea for making mini boxes out of the paint chips you get at Home Depot/Lowe's. If we find more DIY doll-sized projects - we'll add them to this board.

Again, if you have places that you find doll-sized craft project ideas - let us know and we'll "pin" them on this board.


If anyone has any suggestions for our Pinterest account - like more boards you'd like to see us start, or ones we started that need more work (haha) - feel free to comment below. Any ideas, advice, and thoughts are appreciated. We try to make our Blog, Facebook, and Pinterest accounts serve y'alls the best we can so that you can easily see the info that interests you!

Thanks for reading this picture-less post, haha.

Toodle pip!

Stay tuned for more posts soon!

We don't think you have to have a FB account - but we connected ours to our FB, so we aren't sure.

We sent you a Pinterest invite directly Ashlyn - so hopefully that will work and you don't need FB. :)

I started a interest account and put one photo on, but now I really do not understand it. I guess I need to explore more.
