Hi Friends!
Like I mentioned in Bean Bytes on Monday, we’re having a fun little party over here today- a Pin It Party! If you’re not already following my on Pinterest, please click the following link to find me: The Lean Green Bean.
Here are the details:
I’m always looking for ways to spread the love to my fellow bloggers. I came up with this idea last week and after checking with a few bloggers to see if they’d be interested, I decided to put it into action! So here’s the deal:
All bloggers are welcome to participate! Here’s what you do:
- Round up 5 blog posts you’ve written that you would like to see on Pinterest.
- Make sure there is a nice, pinable image or photo included in each post.
- Write a short post featuring the posts you chose- ie, put 5 nice images & links to the posts all in one place, along with a short description of each post.
- On Thursday, publish your post, then visit The Bean and add your post to the linkup! (If you’re just reading this today and still want to participate, just publish in the next few days…I’ll leave the linkup open for about a week!)
The only rule is this:
If you add your post to the linkup, please take a few minutes to visit at least three other posts and pin some of their images!
That’s it! Hopefully this will be a fun way to get some Pinterest exposure to some of your best posts and to help drive traffic to your blogs.
If you’re a reader, you can still join in the fun if you’re on Pinterest! Remember that pinning images from blog posts you love is a great way to support your favorite bloggers! It helps more people see the posts and can help the blogs grow! So, if you’re a reader in the mood to pin, visit the Pin It Party, check out some of the great posts that are linked up and pin away!
So without further adieu, here are my 5 posts I’d love to see more of on Pinterest:
{Cranberry Sweet Potato Cottage Cheese Muffins}
{How To Prep Food On The Weekend}
{Zucchini Carrot Apple Muffins}
—————
Bonus: Because I didn’t include a dessert..
and because I’m the host and I do what I want 😉

Happy Pinning, friends! Check out all the linkups below and PIN AWAY!!!!

I am so excited to see all these link ups! This is a wonderful idea. I hope you do it again – I couldn’t get it together fast enough to participate this week but 100% will in the future!
LOVE those muffins. 🙂
THANK YOU for doing this! I cant wait to check back tomorrow and see so many more linkups! 🙂
This was such a great idea – I’m so excited to fill up so many of my boards on Pinterest. I’m loving your workout post and the puppy chow almonds!

Oh such a great idea Lindsay!
I’m kind of excited to see what everyone comes up for!
Glad to get in under the deadline!
Gonna have lots of fun pinning this weekend! Can’t wait to see all the linkups.
Thanks for the fun idea! We should definitely do it again. I’m coming back tomorrow to pin away, but for now I’m off to bed! 🙂
first thursday of the month from now on!!
I just pinned from some of the other blogs participating in the party, and now I’m gonna pin that puppy chow! Yum!
This is such a great idea although there’s a large chance I will lose a big chunk of my weekend reading all these great posts! But…I’m tapering for a marathon on Monday…I’m allowed to spend a few hours infront of the computer this weekend. Perfect timing! 🙂 I will be adding my Pin It post later today!
awesome! love when the timing works out like that!
Great idea! Can’t wait to go on a pinning spree!
Great idea Lindsay! I’ll be back to check out all the link ups this evening after work 🙂
Oh this is fabulous!!! Will join in next time!

ok my goal was to get this up and visit at least 10 people before we left town, DONE!!!!!
you’re a rockstar!
What a great idea! I had planned to join, but my pinnable posts don’t hold a candle to the ones these great ladies have posted, so maybe I’ll participate next time. 🙂

I would have Pinned those muffins, even if it wasn’t a Pin It Party… typically, Pinterest seems to be a bit flaky today, but I will keep pinning!
it was a little iffy for me too this morning but seems better now. thanks for the pins and tweets!
What an awesome idea, Linds. You are so fun:)
Great idea and I’m loving going through everyone’s posts – about to make my Pinterest boards very happy 🙂

Loving all the posts I am seeing – so cool! Great round up by you too! I clicked on the almonds but not gonna make – too hard to portion control! 😉
Thx for doing this & the great shares here!

PS: I don’t see a tweet button anymore – did you take it off?
it somehow got deactivated during some upgrades. should be fixed now!!
Thanks for hosting this awesome link-up Lindsay! I just posted mine 🙂
Now I’m off to pin a few of those recipes that I see above!

Pinned the almonds, they look sooo good!!
This was a fabulous idea! Thanks!! =)
Thanks so for hosting this party – I’m “meet” so many cool new bloggers (as well as filled up my pin boards) !
I love this thank you! One question, can anyone tell me do you have a specific program or ap you use to make pins? I would love to do it, but am not sure where to start? Thanks!
Thanks so much for hosting and thank you for the link love today! This was such a great idea!
Thanks for putting this together. I was inspired to join in this round (but looks like I can no longer add my link). Loving all the pins!
