Pinterest - BEST way for online moodboards!

lady_lyla, 1 March, 2012 at 17:54 Posted on Planning 0 41

Not sure if you've all heard of it but thought I'd share - it's the BEST way I've found to hold images of things I like.

You can 'pin' images you find online that you like to different boards, and then they can always link back to where you found them, so if it's something you want to buy later on, you have the image saved on your board and can click through directly to the site when you're ready.

My favourite online invention for wedding planning!

    I applied to join and got my invite after a few days BUT I didn't sign up because it said to link my account to either Twitter or FB and I didn't want to do either in case OH sees my possible dress photos! Can you join without linking the account up do you know?

    Hi Jenny

    When you pin something onto a board, there's a little box in the corner for Facebook (and Twitter if you signed that up too) which you just uncheck!

    I found it a bit confusing at first, but it's a great way to pin ideas and stuff (and I love that you can click through!) and you can have lots of different boards.

    We are fans too. Its good for creating mood boards for each venue or location we have worked at. Of course we have albums etc to show this but PInterest is also proving useful for getting ourselves known.

    I'm just getting into Pinterest, wish I'd had it earlier in the planning process. I'm pinning anything other than dresses (don't want wobbles!)

    Oooh I've just had my invite sent out, had to get facebook timeline though!

    Think this may be my new addiction but seems like a great way to decide my colour scheme

    It's a website where you can save images from the web to virtual "pinboards".

    You download a button to your browser and when you see an image you want to save you click the button.

    You can also follow others and re-pin their pins!
