Pinterest. It's a love/hate thing. I have used Pinterest for reference (mostly for recipes) but the bulk of my activity is pinning stuff I forget 30 seconds later; never to be seen again.
For some reason (my love of letters/graphics?) I remembered the idea about spray painting plastic letters because when these letters arrived at school in a box of hand-me-downs, I grabbed them. And when I was spray painting a vintage stool and had some paint left, I painted the letters. This was not as easy as it seemed but it turns out that the letters are pretty cute with their cohesive "seaside" color scheme. But our refrigerator is not magnetic, So why? Why did I do this? I'm not sure but know I will eventually find a use for them (as long as I don't need more than two Es).
So ballpark it. What percentage or fraction of Pinterest ideas do you put into play? I'm going with an optimistic 10%. Love. Hate.
Funny -- I was just pinning things onto my never-to-be-seen again 'ideas' board. It's right up there with my 'exercise' folder on my computer. My most-used pins are recipes. Sigh.

I love it. I use it a lot for reference and inspiration! i don't do everything on it - who could!?! but I love how people are expressing themselves and showing off their handmade creativeness. www.handmadebykelly.com
