My name is Kirsten. I am a wife and mother of a rambunctious toddler who keeps me on my toes. Like many others, I quickly feel in love with Pinterest. What’s not to love? The site is filled with tips, tricks, crafts, and recipes galore! The problem is that I was spending so much time pinning that I wasn’t putting any of them to use. So, I decided to set a goal for myself. It started small as most people’s ideas start. Then, it morphed. I said to my husband one night, “So I had an idea today…” He quickly sat up to brace himself for what I was about to say. Don’t be fooled, he loves my new ideas! I told him of my crazy idea to try a new Pinterest project every day (or Pin Interest as he calls it). And so the idea to start this blog was born. I will be putting a new pin to use each day for the coming year.
I hope you will join me for my journey. It’s sure to be a fun ride!
wow, how do you find time? good luck!
Time has definitely been the biggest challenge, but so far so good. I hope it keeps up!
What a cool idea!!! I love your blog! I do a pin of the day on my blog so I know you have your (fun) work cut out for you!

Hi there! I just nominated you for a blogging award
http://inspiringhealthyliving.wordpress.com/2012/04/11/ive-been-nominated/
Thank you!!
I tried to check this but didn’t see the post above when I did – I’ve also nominated you for the Versatile Blogger Award! Post is here: http://thecosycreative.wordpress.com/2012/04/15/the-easter-nest-awards/
Great IDEA!!! I’m wondering if you only post success stories or if you post disappointing results as well. I guess I’ll have to keep reading. I’d love to try the pin a day idea, but I’d have to start a whole new blog – mine keeps morphing. I totally understand the problem of spending all my time pinning and no time doing. One a day does seem doable. Thanks for sharing!!!!
Blessings,
Alyson
Thanks, Alyson! Yes, I have definitely had some failures too. Luckily there haven’t been too many so far, but I’m sure there will be more to come!

What a great idea for your blog! I also love pinterest, I give myself half an hour, then I stop – it can be addictive!
It sure can!
O you trixy girl. You’ve lured me in!! And..I am not easy to hook! Awesome blog!!**
Haha thank you!
Hi…great idea! And kudos to you – I am doing a Project 366 for photographs – and I know it does get hard from time to time… Good luck to you!
Thanks! Good luck to you too!
HEY this is really random but I really like your pins and wanted to keep up to date with them as I like your choices of food making, but my laptop got a virus so I had to restart it completely and lost all my bookmarks, and have spent the last hour trying to find your blog again! Just thought you’d like to know you inspired me to make all this great food stuff! So thanks!
Thanks so much, Kya!
Hi, I really like your ideas and have tried/done some of them. I am following you on Pinterest, but I’d like to get removed from the daily emails. I have emailed a couple times asking to be unsubscribed with no luck. Can you help? Thank you!
Thanks, Jill! No problem. I’ll work on stopping those emails for you.
This is a fantastic idea! So excited to follow, wish I would have found it sooner!
Thank you, Lex!
I love following along…..there are some really great ideas on your site. I nominated you for the Super Sweet Blogger Award.

Thank you, Jean!
Hello! Your awesome neighbor is my classmate from high school, and I’m so glad he posted your blog!! I had great fun going through all of your posts, and really appreciated the ‘write ups’! The Paleo recipes are great; I’m looking forward to trying them. Thanks!!
Thanks Rachelle! I’m so glad you stopped by! Enjoy those Paleo recipes!
I’m doing this exact same thing! I had so many different things that I tried from Pinterest and I wanted to keep track of the successes and failures somehow. I set the goal of one year as well! My blog is currently at 365ishpins.blogspot.com, but I’m in the process of bringing it over to 365ishpins.com. I’m on day 257 and haven’t missed one yet!
Glad to see a similar blog.
Awesome! I hope you are enjoying your journey as much as I did. It was amazing reaching the end, but of course I had to keep going. Pinterest has me hooked! Best of luck with the rest of your pins!
HI Kristen!! I just found your blog today and I started a very similar one (for similar reasons) 45 pins ago!!
I’m only shooting for 100 in a year, so you are my hero!! Thanks for sharing!
