I've Been Pinned!!

I can't even describe to you the total and complete sense of joy I get when people find something I've stuck on this old blog useful. Last night I happened to notice that the stats on my blog shot through the roof - I followed one of the links back to Pinterest and discovered that I'd been pinned!!!! Not only that, there's more than one pin from my blog! I almost peed myself with excitement. Now imagine trying to convey said excitement to a very, very tired husband that is camped out on the couch playing video games with only one eye open.

Not much of a reaction.

So I'm sharing it with YOU!!!!


I know for a fact that plenty of you out there can relate to my complete giddiness. I've had this discussion with a few of you - the sense of elation we get when we sell one of our handmade items - well, I also get that same feeling when someone tells me that they've enjoyed a blog post! And to have 70+ people so far feel that my DIY Sanding Sugar post was cool enough to pin and share....AAAAAAAAAAAAA!!! Talk about a flippin happy dance.

So tired husband = you getting to listen to me sing my happy song.

Thanks for listening

  1. Yay how exciting! I know how you feel...I had no idea anyone pinned anything from my blog at least not regularly. I had a photo of a puppy on a fave Friday post recently and so many people pinned it...I had hundreds of people viewing my blog because of a puppy! My fave pin was someone who pinned me in their 'fashion heroes' board...so crazy! So back to you....very cool! I too tried to share with my fella and he's like...huh? That's neat...I think haha.

    1. I have a hard time explaining some of the social network to Todd at all - he barely uses facebook. I get all excited if one of my bloggy pals gets pregnant and his main reaction is "who's that??? oh."
      Fashion hero is pretty damn cool, Jenna! Good for you!
      Hope everything's going smashingly! ♥
