Pinteresting Idea

So Mollie, who is a genius, emailed me and said, "Are you on Pinterest?" And I was because Lani and inkgrrl had harassed me until I joined. I was pretty much just sticking stuff up there without a plan, but Mollie said, "You should put up a board for Liz."

Now that was interesting: A board to stick pictures on that inspired me for Lavender's Blue. I told her to give me twenty-four hours and then I'd get back to her, and I've been working on it for about an hour now, and I'm liking it. It doesn't replace collage for me, but boy howdy does it give a picture of the book. The only problem is, I can't find where I found some of my pictures. So I'm hoping if I post them in this blog post, I can put them on the Lavender's Blue Pinterest board. Because really? This is easy brainstorming and a great way to get into Liz's world.

For example, this is Liz. She's blonder than this and she's wearing the sunglasses Molly gave her, but this is Liz. Great book cover potential, too.

And this is the Your Name Here Bear:

And the Easy Bear:

Here's the bridesmaid's dress Liz says is going to make everybody look like a float in the Rose Bowl parade (all the bridesmaids are stacked, so those flowers are going to be . . . prominent).

And of course, Veronica:

Okay, enough about me. If you're hesitant to collage, you can definitely pin. Pinterest: for collage-aphobics everywhere.

Edited to add: It worked! I can pin from the blog. Here's the Lavender's Blue Pinterest Board.
