Have you heard about this amazing site?

 

I expect you have & found it's a great tool for finding beautiful images, ideas, information, & lots more. Did you know we are on Pinterest too? We are gradually increasing the number of boards pinned with lots of goodies...

 It's like having a never-ending lifestyle magazine to flick through, ooh-ing & arrh-ing over the lovely photos & occasionally tearing one out to keep, only to find someone has already gone through & done it for you! Putting all the images & information on a giant pin board to look through at your leisure. So no piles of torn out pages, just organised pins on boards, in a range of subjects so you can (hopefully), at a later date, find what you are looking for. It's great to see things you perhaps wouldn't ordinarily have seen. It leads us to discover new shops, websites & blogs & with that, new & interesting people.

 However, there is a but......it can become addictive & a time-waster, if you let it. The catch is, you think "I'll just have a quick peep", then you realise 2 hours have gone by! It's not really Pinterest's fault; perhaps just a little the people who post such lovely things to distract us!

 We use Pinterest & love it. This prompted us to connect our Facebook page to our Petit Pica Pinterest boards, making it simpler for people to see our stock, ideas & inspirations. Just click on the Pinterest icon & it will take you there. Easy peasy, lemon squeezy......

You will find also find links to our Facebook & Pinterest pages on the right of this blog so when you have mo, have a peek & maybe follow a board or two &, if you like what you see, please "like" us on Facebook.....
