I try to be very picky about pinning because I don't want to have a bunch of crap on there to look through when I'm finding what I actually need. But of course I have my fair share of things that I'd love to make but just haven't had time for.
Do you actually use your pins?

I have attempted most of the recipes I have pinned, but the DIY stuff not so much...some day maybe

Yep, just made a wet bag the other week. I try to do them when I have time.

I've made probably half of the recipes I've pinned, and have completed a few DIY projects.

None yet but I've been trying to make more recipes from Cooking Light this week so maybe I will try some of the ones I pinned next week!

I used a bunch of pins so far. Mostly cooking tips and household tips. I did use a recipe but I put my own spin on it.
I do have a bunch of different boards so they don't get lost. I think I have 25 boards.

LOVE pinterest. I've made quite a few of the recipes I've pinned. I've tried one or two of the DIYs but there are some that I'm saving for a rainy day. I've also definitely used some of the outfit pictures that I have pinned as inspiration. There are SO many things that I forget about though, I need to clean out my pins!

@MsMamaBear: As I was writing that I was wondering if I should explain that I've had pinterest for a long time now. I think maybe 6-7 months now. I had 13 or so but as I started pinning, I realized that it gets harder to find things when you have 100 pins under 'yummy foods'. I had to break them down so I have 'yummy desserts' 'yummy dinners'... etc.

I try to make all of the recipes I pin, I'm working on it! So far I've had some awesome success! Just made slowcooker scalloped potatoes tonight and they were so delicious.

I've made a few. I've been pinning a bunch of recipes I cannot eat right now so they are just going to accumulate. A lot of the DIY pins are more for inspiration on combined projects or for DS when he's older, but I have made a few of them recently, like the quilted laptop sleeve I just completed.

I've used a ton of pins for recipes, I have a list of ones I want to try and a list of ones I've tried and liked. I also have photo inspiration that I use with our photographer for LO's photo shoots and we've used that a lot. It's also been great for party planning. So, I would say I use a good amount of the stuff I pin.

I use my food pins when I'm making menus. No kids and no house yet, so the jury is out on the rest.
