One of the reasons I so like Pinterest is the Visual Nourishment it provides me when I look at the pages of either my boards (here is a sample)
or the boards of others. It almost doesn’t matter what the topic is – the visuals are wonderful and are very important to a visual person such as myself. So as you are looking at the pins others have put on their boards that you follow either because you are interested in the topic or just like to look at a topic, you get to choose which pins you want to put onto your boards.
One of the choices you make is what to name your boards. Most do it by nouns: turtles, gardens, dance, flowers, labyrinths, mandalas, art journals, quotes, childhood memories, etc.
For some reason I tend to think in patterns and so named many boards for a theme that occurs in many different areas but all sharing the same trait, so turtles and gardening are on my Healing Haven board, the wonders of people’s faces and diversity of cultures are on Faces of Wisdom and Faces of the World boards, Project Life pages people have completed or cards available for printing are included in the Project Life board, while mandalas, labyrinths and meditation/spiritual pins are all on my Journey to the Center board.
I’ll be more specific about the boards on a follow-up post and also include how the pins assist me in doing my Project Life albums.
