Real Life Pinterest

If you ask me the couple who created Pinterest are right up there with Mark Zuckerburg, creator of Facebook. 
Sure, their are still a few kinks but overall its amazing for wasting countless hours on getting inspired. 
But what about life BEFORE Pinterest? 

For the last few years I have been getting Martha Stewart and Real Simple magazines... AND KEEPING EVERY. SINGLE. ONE. 
I know Hoarders called... my Mom has already staged an intervention. 
BUT I kept them because I liked an idea, recipe, or hairstyle. I decided though that it was ridiculous that 4 of these huge drawers were being taken up by old magazines 
( that I would never pick through or really utilize)



So I put together two real life Pinterest binders and have started tackling my piles of magazines.



I have a craft binder organized into sections ( Home/ Kids/ Fashion/ Etc) and another binder broken into sections for Recipes, Hair/ Beauty, Fashion, Decorating. 



This way I can donate 90% of the magazine and only keep what I really want to save and will use. 
Im happy to be de-cluttering and organizing this place before baby boy comes in about 8 weeks!!!

  1. I had this SAME problem and came up the same solution a few months ago! :) I've also made separate ones for recipes that I pull from magazine or print out. Nice work!!
