Pinterest Addict? Just maybe. GIVEAWAY!

Hi!  We are Miranda & Jamie and we blog over at The Pinterest Project.  We are so excited to be here today...a big thanks to Laura for letting us hang out with the cool kids!

We are two friends who found ourselves experiencing stay at home motherhood for the first time within a few months of each other and knew we had to find a way to keep ourselves sane through all the sleepless nights, dirty diapers, cheerios and heart meltingly sloppy kisses.  Our blog was born out of an addiction to Pinterest.  We spent so much time pinning and emailing pins to each other that we decided to use the pins we loved as motivation to cook for our families, decorate our homes, make fun accessories or clothing and just about anything else that caught our eye.

We tackle a new pin four times a week and then blog about its success (or sometimes, even an epic fail makes its way into the blog posts!  Hey, we're real and we're not perfect and sometimes our projects are big, fat failures...)  It's been an incredibly fun way to utilize Pinterest AND to get to know other amazing bloggers while we do it.

Also, every Monday, we have a series that we call Hit or Miss Mondays, where we highlight what we think were the big hits or misses that week on Pinterest.    It's a way to get to know us and our sense of humor.  (We like to laugh...and poke fun at ridiculous things)

Jamie and I have done countless projects, but here are a few of our top posts:







So, that's us in a nutshell!  We hope you'll come over to The Pinterest Project, poke around, and get inspired to put your Pinterest boards to good use (or inspired to join Pinterest!  
Let us know if you need an invite...)

And as a way of saying thank you for spending a few moments with us today - we are offering up:

- A custom made hat from none other than the talented Jamie, who also runs Macie's Little Hat Co.
You can choose your colors, style and size!  Check out her shop to see all the options.


AND 

 - a $20 gift card to Amazon!
