When I need some time to think, usually with a task I am in the middle of, I find myself on Pinterest to distract myself. In recent months, one of my favourite things to do is to pin and create phone wallpapers and backgrounds, I find it quite therapeutic and whilst I am not the most imaginative of people or indeed artist, there is something quite satisfying about seeing someone else repin something you have made. Of course, most of the help and guidance I have been given with using Pinterest properly has come from Gemma over at Gemmaetc who amazingly gets over 10million, yes MILLION unique views a month!!!!
I use a variety of different sites to make my graphics for Pinterest. Something I stick with using Picmonkey, other times I use Creative Market and sometimes I use Canva. I like the freedom of being able to pick and choose how I want my pins to look and the options that come with each site. If I am sharing a blog post then I use my own photos and just sometimes I use a royalty-free image from sites like Unsplash to help create the look I am wanting.
Two of my most popular boards feature Quotes and Words. I have also been obsessed with quotes and tend to have a few of them as screensavers on my desktop and even one or two printed out on the pinboard in my office. Aside from the office, I also have a quote background on my phone, which I change to reflect my mood, the situation I am in or even because I happen to just like it.
Below are some of my most popular pins to date and I would love to know what you think to them.
I would love to know which one of these is your favourite and if you are a fellow procrastinator on Pinterest, I would really love to know what your favourite thing to pin is. I have listed my page below if you wanted to also give me a follow.
