A big pinterest hit
It was nice seeing so many of you appear on Pinterest after yesterday's post! And oh my, I thought I was addicted... ;) Some of you really have impressive collections!
 
One thing that I forgot to mention in my post yesterday, but what I think is particularly interesting about Pinterest (also for shops and designers): you can quickly see trends and 'Pinterest hits' emerge. Some pictures apparently are so nice and attractive that almost everyone who sees them also repins them to one's own image collection. A while ago I saw this really nice dress from Bangbang Copenhagen's coming 2012 collection on the French blog Pauletpaula, and pinned it to my pinboard (in fact it was almost the first image I ever pinned ;)). And it turns out I wasn't the only one... When I started browsing other people's inspiration boards on children's fashion, I saw the Bangbang dress pop up all the time. And since I officially revealed myself as a pinterest aficionada yesterday, I believe it's been my most frequently repinned image.
 
So with such an online buzz already I think the folks at Bangbang can be pretty sure that this dress is going to be a bestseller when it becomes available, and that wouldn't be strange at all: is there any mom of a young girl who can't picture her daughter wearing this sweet and fabulous dress? If they're a bit wise over there and listen to this new self-proclaimed Pinterest guru, they'd better have a few extra ones of that dress made... ;)

I've reading your blog for a while but never left a comment. I have a question. You mentioned that you are not on Facebook yet you have a Pinterest account. I sent a request for an invite using my blog e-mail, but then when I got their invite, I had to log in via Facebook, but my Facebook account has my personal e-mail not my blog's e-mail, so it would not log me in. How do you do Pinterest if you don't have a Facebook account? Would be grateful for your tips.

@ Zosia: you indeed have to create an account on either facebook or twitter to be able touse Pinterest, so I just made a (further totally sleeping) account on twitter, just to be able to log in to pinterest. So in a way I am a tiny little bit ' on Twitter', but I don't use it.

Jij ook aan de pinterest? Leuk! Ik zal je eens opzoeken. Ik ben al een tijdje bezig. Want het is behoorlijk handig als 'tool' om al die plaatjes even bij elkaar te brengen. Helaas ben ik tegenwoordig met mijn weinig beschikbare vrije tijd, niet veel meer online... :-( Ik vind het trouwens leuk dat jij er zo'n andere mening op na houdt dan veel bloggers. Er valt idd ook wel wat te zeggen voor een hele open, gebruik de beelden, het is je eigen collectie die je op internet samenstelt idee. (is dit nog te volgen? ;-))

About Ninainvorm

I'm Nina, ceramics designer, art/ craft/ design lover and mom of Rosa and Julie. This blog is about the things I make (you can find my online shop here) and the things I love (design, art, craft, interior, fashion, photography). You may have noticed a special emphasis on my two beautiful girls and everything children's design related! 

There used to be a second blog on children's clothing, Coolkidsclothes, but it's currently sort of asleep and all the images have vanished temporarily, but I hope to revitalize it real soon.

Meanwhile, lovely children's clothing will be an important part of this blog here as well.
