Pinterest Inspiration | My Favorite Curators

Friday, October 4, 2013


Today I've fallen back in love with Pinterest!
I admit, I've been in a Pinterest slump lately.
At times it can be an overload of information and feel like another weekly to-do.  But the idea is simple and if done correctly your Pinterst page can inspire, organize and motivate you to create a more joyful & productive life.  So today I'm giving you permission to pour a large glass of you fill in the blank and take some time to get inspired!
Here's my number one tip for making Pinterest no longer a chore!
The key is to follow amazing curators ~ think the people in museums who pick and design the display of the artwork.  More is not always better.  A good Pinterest pinner can introduce you to new ideas, new blogs & websites, and open you up to a whole new world of creativity.  While I love following industry experts, some of my absolute favorite pinners aren't those with fancy websites or blogs of their own.  They're my real-life family & friends, people I've met through Iron & Twine and strangers that I stock through Pinterest.  Today I want to introduce you to four of my all time favorites.  If these women were editors of their own magazines, I'd be sure to be a subscriber! 
 I hope you'll visit their Pinterest pages 
and follow them for continuous inspiration!  
In the meantime, here's a small sampling of their curated work.

Traditional, Sophisticated & Modern is what sums up Catey White's inspiring pins.  She has an eye for the timeless and an impeccable taste for the home and fashion.  Her Food & Drink Board always has me drooling for more!  Be sure to check out all of her pins here!

Sarrin's Pins blend Boho Chic and Preppy Cool making the it girl look approachable.  Her Style Board is one of my fashion favorites!  Effort-less in every way I wish my wardrobe was styled around this board.
I'm cutting my hair short in the near future and Sarrin's Hairstyle Board will be my first stop for inspiration.  Go check out more of Sarrin's Pins!

  1. These look fabulous! Thanks for sharing!
    ps- I don't think I left you a comment on your NY post, but I wanted to tell you how much I enjoyed reading about your weekend. You did a great job writing that post! I had been planning on bringing our family of 6 to NYC to mark some things off our family's Travel Wish List, but now lots of things are closed because of the government's recent temper tantrum, grrr. So I guess that trip will have to wait- I'm sure it will be gorgeous in Spring, right? =) Hope you guys have a wonderful weekend!

    1. Yah Bethany! I'm glad you liked this post! I love seeing what others are inspired by, it ultimately inspires me ~ so hopefully we'll make this a series here at I&T.

      That's a HUGE bummer for you and the family (super frustrating) ~ but NY in the Spring is equally awesome! The end of April, beginning of May is beautiful!! This past March my husband and I took my 10 year old brother there ~ if you're in need of some kid-friendly ideas I'm happy to share what our travel plans were like ~ just send me an email :) Have a great weekend!!

  2. I agree about only following inspiring pinners. I don't follow very many so it doesn't take me long to scroll through and see what is new. But I love the ones I do follow. :) I only follow a few friends. :P
