Pinned It and Did It!

Are y'all sick of hearing me talk about Pinterest yet?  Hmm...so anyhoo...enough talking...how about some doing?

Rain Gutter Shelving

My Version:

The low-down: so easy, so cheap, very sturdy!  I put one shelf on each level of our bunk beds, and they are perfect since there's not really room for a side table with the bunks.  *Love* this project!

 My Version:

The low-down: Love these!  We (obviously) use these for coloring books, and they are perfect for that.  

Baked Avacado Fries

 My Version:

The low-down:  Eh.  Not worth the effort.  They were crispy.  They were dippable.  They just weren't very good. And I love avacados!  I think they were just bland.  If you try these, add some major spice, mmmkay?

Mine:
Aww, snap!  I didn't take a picture!?!?  That's terrible, because the low-down on this one is that it is the best thing in the whole universe.

Dawn & Vinegar Cleaning Solution

Mine:

The low-down: This is that miracle cleaning solution for soap scum (et cetera) that I have seen time and time again on Pinterest.  So I finally tried it, and yes, it worked really well.  But it requires more effort than spraying on some Lysol All-Purpose, and for me isn't quite worth that effort.  Is it better for the environment?  I dunno.  If you tell me it is, I will use it again.

In conclusion, actually doing some pins over the last three months recently has been so much fun.  It has yielded some great results, and some "so-so" results.  In any case, its your turn!  Go get some pinsperation of your own;)  You can always get started by following me here!
