Please do not reward blogs that claim their original source is “pinterest” - on their own Pinterest boards. Pinterest is not an original source. Even on Facebook when I link to a DIY, I don’t link to my blog where I posted it, but to the original source. Why? Goodwill from readers is worth more to me than getting my name out there.  

Why feature these Pinterest linked DIYs when there are blogs out there that work hard to provide original sources?

DIY Fairies In a Jar Tutorial or Why I Hate Pinterest. Well, not hate Pinterest all the time, but I’m seeing these obviously Photoshopped pictures all over Pinterest with “recipes” to make these magical fake photos come to life… which is like giving life to an Urban Legend over and over again. Well the Blogger of Jude and the Walrus decided to see if she could get the same results with a glow stick and glitter and voila - NOPE. If you still like this project enough to do it - Bottom Left Photo: REAL DIY from Jude and the Walrus here. *For something that works and lasts more than 10-12 hours make a glitter and glue “keep calm” meditation jar I posted here (with keep calm and sparkle artwork), or go to my roundup of DIY Galaxy and Glow In The Dark Jars Tutorials.

truebluemeandyou: Reblogging because of best comment of the bunch about Tumblr and donuts by foundbysara.

And on Tumblr you’d have the prettiest most amazing photograph of a chocolate donut with sprinkles - or - a blog called “Fuck Yeah Donuts”

foundbysara reblogged your photo: And on Tumblr you’d have the prettiest most…
I cracked up because this (and the following) have both been making the rounds on my dash.  I can say (pretty confidently) that tumblr would look like this:
fredflare:

Reblog this post - ONLY once per blog! - and then you’re entered to win… a dozen donuts??

Yes, once again fredflare.com is gonna overnight you a dozen donuts from my fave NYC spot The Doughnut Plant.
And, what the heck, I’m also gonna throw in a $50 gift certificate tofredflare.com

DIY Burberry Prorsum F/W10-11 Inspired Zipper Blazer

lenne reblogged your photo: DIY Burberry Prorsum F/W10-11 Inspired Zipper…

My first DIY post ^______^

Also, the past will come back to haunt you, guys. New (superficial) motto: Always look good in photos D:

lenneI hate to tell you this, but I got this off of Pinterest, and so it has probably been pinned a zillion more times there than it has been reblogged here. Also, I’d kill to look like like you in that photo!
