Clip-terest

I'm not hooked up to Pinterest - I use Clipterest!  Never heard of it, I'll bet. 

bags, bags and more bags!

I don't deny the existence of inspiration which can be found on the internet. But I really. don't. want. to be spending. more. time. in front of this screen. And I don't need to, anyway!

pretty dresses, etc.

At the library, we have a basket on the floor going into the reading room - where the magazines and newspapers are - and if you have a magazine you are finished with, you can leave it there for another to take. I've taken many of these. And I tear out pages which appeal to me. No, I don't clip them out; that isn't where the name comes from.

is this a dress or a skirt? I love it!

I clip the pictures together with a clothespin! I have two clips: one for bags, clothing, and personal type things. The other for home decor items.  (More on those later.)

I even save photos of food on occasion, without the recipe - the picture is often enough to go on:

the cake on the left looks like an Alicia Paulson creation. She may have seen this picture, or they may have seen her blog - who knows?  It's charming! On the right, all I need to remember is that I can throw blueberries into a dense vanilla cake, and toss some onto the icing - hopefully it would look as wonderful as that does!  One doesn't always think of these things without being reminded. 

I'm quite content with my clipped clippings. No Pinterest for me, thank you.
