How Pinteresting!
Some of my more eagle-eyed readers may have noticed a little (and I mean little) bit of a tidy up on Eclectic Ephemera this past week. In reality all I've done is move a few things from here to there - much like I do when tidying up my flat, if I'm honest! There is one new addition though, almost hidden away on the right column... that's right, I am now on Pinterest!
I can't quite remember now why I suddenly decided to sign up; I suppose I was finding more and more interesting pictures and the urge to share them when it was not always conducive to do so on this blog. As a chap for whom "social media" means reading a newspaper in a public place Pinterest had never really been on my scope, I had a vague awareness of it but nothing more. I still wasn't quite sure what it entailed when I joined it but I have come to the swift conclusion that it is the perfect complement to this blog and a mine of beautiful, interesting images. I'm beginning to wonder how I ever got by without it!
Do please go on over and have a look and if you like what you see, let me know! I've already found a few fellow bloggers' boards and am very definitely hooked.
Pip-pip! (or should that be Pin-Pin!).

ReplyDeleteHow wonderful! Though I'm sure I'm not the first you've likely heard it from, do be forewarned, Pinterest is more than a little addicting (take it from a self-proclaimed addict ;D ) - not, though, that there's necessarily anything wrong with that. I love it dearly, not only as a means to store, catalog, and source inspiration, but also as a reward (of sorts) after a long, long day, when I just need to unwind and do something completely fun.
