Pintrest Intervention

Ok, I’ll admit it. I’m a little bit addicted to Pinterest. I don’t know if it’s the awesome photos, the yummy recipes, or the creative crafts but I could spend hours browsing. Professionally I can find so much inspiration from other art teachers and Homeschool moms. I love finding new art projects that are creative, educational, and different from any lesson I’ve seen before. You can see my pins on the Home Art Studio Pinterest account. I’ve included many fun crafts, new ideas for fine art projects for all ages, and perhaps my favorite board- Beautiful artwork.
A couple of weeks ago I went to a Pin Up.

There might be one soon in your area. It’s a gathering of different Pinterest members and the one I attended was a blast. This Pin Up was hosted by the North Carolina Museum of Art. There were delicious snacks (recipes from Pinterest of course).

Also I visited the three different craft tables.

The part I found most interesting was the panel discussion. This Pin up was specifically about learning how to use Pinterest to promote your business or sell your crafts. I learned a lot about the history of Pinterest, the etiquette rules for how to use it (like always giving credit to artists), and how to best curate your boards.
1.36 million People visit Pinterest every day, 50% of users have children, 68% are women, and the average amount of time spent on the site is 15 minutes. Only 15 minutes? Wow, I really need to get a handle on my Pinning time.

If you are on Pinterest please check out my boards for Home Art Studio! I’d love to follow you as well. I’m always curious to see Homeschool parents’ boards. I’ve gotten all kinds of great ideas from you guys.
