Teacher Tip Thursday

Hello Bloggers!

Sorry I have been on hiatus.  My sister and her granddaughters are visiting and I am playing entertainer and taxi driver right now.  I am loving it because the little ones have never been to Florida before.  So we are taking them to so many wonderful places.  You should have seen their faces when they tasted salt water for the first time yesterday while at the beach.  Yes, I had my camera ready!  It was priceless!

That's enough about me, now onto my tip for today.

How many of you are ADDICTED to pinterest?

I know I am!

I am on there several times a day pinning this and pinning that!  I am pinning so much you would think I were a seamstress!

Do you ever feel like you pin so much that you forgot what you pinned?

Or, how about you found this awesome pin and you said to yourself "I SO WANT TO MAKE THAT!" but then you forgot about it and now you are asking yourself  "WHICH FOLDER DID I PUT THAT AWESOME IDEA IN?"

I hope you feel like this too, or maybe I am just getting old and losing my memory.  If that is the case, please let me know so I can go see the doctor right away!

Anyway, I am always forgetting about my pins.

I finally found something that works for me and it is so simple that maybe you already do this too, but I am going to share anyway.

When I find a pin that is something that I want to make, I simply follow these steps:
  1.  right click on the image 
  2. click on "save image as"
  3. and then save it to my desktop
Now I have all those wonderful pins as a small image on my desktop and I remember to actually make it.  No more forgetting!

I figure, if I get too many images on my desktop, I will make a desktop file folder that says "Make These Pins" or something of that nature.

Well, that's it!

That's my tip for today.

Now I'm off to taxi my girls to Marineland.  We are going to play with dolphins today!  Fun!

Happy Blogging!
Ann
