Ok, raise your hand if you’re currently fighting an addiction to Pinterest. Yeah, me too. I’ve been totally guilty of staying up way too late the past few nights just drooling over the amazing ideas I’m finding there for everything from home decor to cooking. This is how my Pinterest love/hate relationship has gone down over the holidays:

Day 1…..Look around. Save a few things. It’s just meh.

Day 2…..Look around. Like it a little more. Create more boards. This is kind of fun.

Day 3…..Look around. Totally hooked. Go on a pinning and following frenzy. OMG….this is amazing!

Day 4…..Look around. Realize I cannot possibly re-create anything I see on there. It’s either too time consuming or too expensive. Feel sad. REALLY sad. Bummed all day.

Day 5…..Oh wait! Somebody posts some easy things I CAN do. And inexpensive! Oh boy! I’m back in the game!!!

And now I’m totally hooked. It is so much fun seeing what inspires others and figuring a way to personalize on that idea if it’s one I like. But the thing is, I just keep pinning and pinning and not doing ANYTHING I see because I am so lazy hooked on this virtual window shopping.

Clearly, this is not good. I realize this. I need help. But it is so much fun.

I’ll follow you back, and not feel so alone in my addiction new hobby.
