Pinning it Down {1} Love Message Board

Welcome to our first Pinning it Down Tuesday! Do you find yourself pinning projects to Pinterest, but rarely getting around to doing them? Do you need a bit of encouragement to make some of those projects come to life? Join Pam and me every Tuesday for the Pinning it Down link-up, where we're making a Pinterest project happen in our homes every week.

This isn't a die-hard link-up. Feel free to participate once a week or once a month- whatever works for you. We're eager to make our Pinterest boards come to life in our homes, and we're hoping you'll find the motivation and encouragement here to do the same. It doesn't need to be an elaborate pin to link up here. Just pick something- anything- off those boards and do it!

For my first Pinning it Down project, I chose a love message board from Lianne at A Content Housewife. This was a super simple project. I chose a masculine 5x7 frame from the clearance rack at TJ Maxx,  printed out the words "I love you because" onto a piece of scrapbook paper, and cut it to fit. I plan to keep this frame on Andy's nightstand, where I can use a fine-point dry erase marker to leave him messages on a regular basis. :)

This is one of those super-simple pins that I think will make a big difference. Who doesn't appreciate a love note for all the little stuff that usually goes unnoticed?

Are you ready to play along? Here's how our link-up works:

1. Choose a project from one of your Pinterest pinboards and make it happen. Blog a little about it. Remember, it doesn't have to be elaborate- we just want to see what you've been up to!

2. Make sure you link back here somewhere in your post so others can find us and play along. Feel free to grab our Pinning it Down graphic if you'd like to add it to your post.

3. Link up below. Make sure you're sending us to your actual post, and not to your general blog address. You can add your link all the way through Friday, so if you haven't gotten a chance to work on any of your pins yet this week, you're not too late.
