Pinterest in Real Life

September 17, 2014 by Leave a Comment

I love Pinterest.  I have been a fan since the way beginning when you had to make a request to join or did you have to get a referral?  I don’t remember exactly but it wasn’t easy as it is now.  Pinterest is looking a lot different these days but I still enjoy it.  I know how easy it is to just pin things right and left with good intentions but how often do I really try that new recipe or make the ‘best’ homemade laundry detergent.  Well, I’ve decided to take some of my pins and try them in real life!  (Hopefully they turn out better than these Pinterest fails!) Here’s what happened:

 

1. Homemade Ranch Dressing

Verdict: My version does not look like the picture but it tasted really good. I followed the recipe but substituted sour cream with greek yogurt.  I would use this recipe again!

 

 

2.

Verdict: I had fun recreating this outfit.  Luckily I had all the items already in my closet so it was pretty easy to pull together.  I need to work on my modeling skills but I like how the outfit looked.

 

This was a fun experience!  I look forward to pinning and recreating more in the future!

 

Have a great day!
