Hmm. Just tried to "sign up" and was put on a "waiting list." Kind of a turn off - though I don't know why...

funny how we both have some of the same ideas for daycare, I'm going to take some of your other ideas, so many great ideas I would never think of.I had to wait a few hours to get my invite. But its so worth it. Its like a visual favorite places/ideas. So great to help you plan your day

so I send the kids to the store ( small town=only store) and we tried it, it didn't work, but I think my peroxide is old and so is the baking soda so I will buy some new stuff this weekend and try.

Between pinterest and Daycare.com, I'm turning into a computer addict! I now have to fight with my kids for time on the computer!!

Here's mine, I'm fairly new so I don't have tons of stuff yet
I don't put up a lot of dc stuff, mainly because I have dc parents that follow me and I don't want them seeing my ideas ahead of time and wondering when I'm going to do them, or wondering why I'm NOT doing them!

Lilrugrats, I just sent you one.
daycare 01:30 PM 11-09-2011
so I see lots of great crafting and DC ideas, but I don't see any instructions on how they were done... I am not crafty at all and need directions for everything..
is this something that I woudl need to find myself?

Maybe I am just blind, or not paying attention today, but I dont get it. I have an account set up, and i went to make boards, but where do you get pins from??!? i need a break.

Go to ABOUT, just to the left of your name on your pinterest page.Maybe I am just blind, or not paying attention today, but I dont get it.
I have an account set up, and i went to make boards, but where do you get pins from??!? i need a break.The 2nd link down says "pin it button". Click on this.
There will be a tutorial on how to pin this to your browser's bookmark bar.
Once it's there you can click on it whenever you find something you want to pin!
If you see something on someone else's board that you want to pin on your own board, just hover over the picture and at the top of it will come a "re-pin" "like" or "comment" option.
Hope this helps!

Lilrugrats, I get mine from blogs usually. I have an etsy shop for my crafts, and so I've always followed a lot of crafty blogs. A lot of them are also young mothers, so I pick up some good ideas.
Basically, before pinterest, if you saw something on the web that you wanted to remember, you made a bookmark. Then, when you tried to find it later on your bookmark list, you had to try to remember what it was called. sigh Now, you can pin it and see the picture and find exactly what you want.
You can also watch the home page for other people's recent pins and repin anything you like.

I have invited everyone who has asked for one.
*so to see how to do the ideas, click the pictures, it will bring you to a bigger picture and then click on it again, which will then bring you to the site where its from.
I don't share on facebook or twitter, so I don't have daycare parents who follow me.

I still am not sure what I'm doing, but I like to follow and see what you ladies have. Can't figure out how to pin from my mobile device yet, which is what I use most of the time!
