But, I'm not content to just collect ideas - I love to try them! I've even started a Pinterest section for pinned ideas that I have tried. And, thought it would be fun to share that here a little too! Here are the ideas I've seen and tried in the past few weeks.
As I put this collection together just now, I realized that I only spent about $5 to make all of these. All the rest of the supplies came from scraps or things I already had. For example, I made the tablecloth out of leftovers from my slip covers. I bought some twine and paid for a few copies to be made and that's it! I think it is fun to see an idea and then make it my own or see how inexpensively I can make it.
How about you? Do you collect ideas or make an effort to try and make some of them?

Pinterest, it's something I see a lot but just don't seem to find the time to get over there to look at it. I hear you need an invite as well, why is that?
Beautiful crafts and so nice that you can creat from what you have.
I have tried a number of ideas from Pinterest and also some of yours! I made a cloth wrapped heart wreath after reading about yours here on your blog. I appreciate all your creative ideas. :)
Love the scarf! I'm bad about loving ideas and even clipping or saving them, only to forget about them and never try them!
Oh yeah!! I love collecting ideas and when I actually get to them, its pretty awesome, too!! I'm in the midst of making ruffled burlap valances{that are on my current post}...
I love that table topper you've made-so cute!!!

I collect ideas, too -- I have a couple of three-ring binders full of them! But you follow through on ideas and spend less doing it more than anyone I know! Thanks for sharing -- I love all the results! :) Love you, Mom
I love it all...
especially your pallet art. That is cool.
You're amazing.
I love "ideas" as well. I collect them in a file on my computer. I have so many projects to try. Next year I am setting a goal to get more of them done.
I don't have much time to spend on pinterest. But I like how you are using it to share what you have done. Another great idea shared.
Have a wonderful day.
I love that tablecloth!
I am a little of both. Okay, maybe a lot of an idea collector. :) I do like trying new ideas when time permits. A goal for the new year is to find a block of time each week to create.
The table cloth is adorable!
I have actually done more ideas from pinterest than from magazines- and I too, am usually using things I already have! I love seeing how creative others are and having a continually changing source of great ideas!
Oh, bless your heart! I am motivated to do many things, but what you've shown are the type of thing I file away and never get around to.
I absolutely LOVE Pinterest :)
Ummmmm love everything that you made Monica. Are you opening your Etsy store again? Please......
I really like your scarf!
PS I collect and try recipes!
Wow! I am impressed by how much you've made. I collect alot of ideas but, sadly, don't do as many as I'd like. I really love the scarves! :)
Sweet Monica- oh to have your determination! I truly am inspired by you- now, I must get to some of those projects that I've put on the backburner!
I LOVE the tablecloth! You did a great job on it :)
love all the crafts! so fun!
I love that I watched you making this on your blog, and then just happened upon Joy's blog about having received it. And of course I was inspired to write a note to a dear friend with a complicated pregnancy. Thanks for the inspiration, and thanks to both of you for letting God use you for good.
Will you make me a tablecloth? I love it -- Do you have an etsy shop? I am now following you on pinterest :-) I'd make it myself but I don't sew. I was just looking up burlap pillows...
I have made one recipe so far on my pins...
