how i use pinterest.

the pinterest craze is here to stay in my book.  from a marketing brain i think its genius.  from a consumer brain i think its genius.  and from one diy decorator to another…..genius!

this is an example of how i use pinterest.  one day i wanted to change up my mantle.  so i went to pinterest and put “simple mantle” in the search box.

here is my mantle before the mini makeover

and here  (below) is the inspiration picture i used from pinterest.  

elements i replicated:  two jars on the left.  two candles on the right.  small vase of flowers.  and instead of the airy coral piece (which i didn’t have laying around the house) i layered a small mirror
