For years, I blindly enjoyed the wonders of the magazine subscription. Each month, I would eagerly await the new delivery of recipes, fashion, garden ideas and ways to wean my baby from a dummy, gleefully tearing off the cling wrap and diving in the second it came through the mail slot.

To this day I still have an extensive collection - literally hundreds, maybe thousands of dollars worth of them, just sitting in a corner of my lounge room.

But this all changed the day I found Pinterest.

You see, I met Pinterest about 2 years ago - and it has opened my eyes to such wide realms of possibilities that I can hardly believe it.pinterestboard

Here's why...What is Pinterest?

For those who don’t know, Pinterest is a website and a mobile App that allows users to “pin” images or pictures - think of it like an electronic pinboard.
