In The Next 30 Days

Last night, I got home from hot yoga a sweaty mess and pulled out the hot glue gun to stick flowers on a yarn braid. I feel like I should always be starting another Pinterest project, like there’s one more thing else I need to get done. Let’s call it Pinterest Exhaustion. The only cure is a social media break and a glass of wine. Or a maybe a glass of white wine sangria with seasonal winter fruits.

See, there I go again.

Here is what the days have looked like:

Day 21 This tangle is what happened when I tried to make a Rapunzel braid for Julia. #pointsfortrying #pinterest | Day 22 Hello #garbageplate at the #TattooedMoose. Had a brunch date with my girlfriends to plan a bachelorette party, #pinterest style, of course. | Day 23 My son has #croup, and his wheezing and cough are killing me. Right now I’m following a pin that says to massage his ring finger to calm his cough. #30days | Day 24 This is a #coconutoil hair treatment. I’m looking forward to silky locks tomorrow. | Day 25 I finally finished the #Rapunzel braid! I can’t wait for Julia to try it on in the morning! | Day 26 Searching for the perfect #appetizer recipe for a Girls Night In. Do you have a go-to pin?

It’s been a super exciting week around here, what with all the guest posts and all. Check out Megan from Mama Bub’s Glittered Pumpkins and Wendy Nielsen’s Every Day Projects. And because it’s totally pinnable, so it fits, here’s an amazing shot of sunset over the Ravanel Bridge here in Charleston. I love this town.

What have you been up to this week?

This week I’ve dug in the sand, thought about my home decor and wardrobe, and put toothpaste on my face. I’d say I’m branching out when it comes to this Pinterest thing. It’s been fun, and busy times 20. But I’m seeing that Pinterest can affect every area of my life: time with kiddos, vacation, getting dressed, making dinner. It’s all there, all the time.

Here’s what my days have been like. | Day 14 Taught my kids the fantastic-ness that is the drizzle castle today on the beach. Thanks #pinterest. | Day 15 I’m teaching myself how to make pinnable images with PicMonkey. Look for the #tutorial on the blog soon! | Day 16 Following #pinterest advice and hand writing out my to do list. #30days | Day 17 So these are my makeshift kitchen curtains. But tonight I’m looking for alternatives or maybe a diy on #pinterest. | Day 18 Yup that’s toothpaste. I just used it to get hair dye off my skin. #mintyfresh thanks to #pinterest | Day 19 I tied my fab @gorjanagriffin scarf the #pinterest way this morning. I liked it, but it might work better with a cold weather scarf.

How are you branching out this week? Have you tried something new? Changed a routine? Followed a pin? I want to hear about it!
