Beyond the pin, Pinterest party fun

We recently hosted a chat on Twitter called #PinterestParty and were thrilled to be  joined by hundreds of other Pinterest users to discuss all things "Pinterest." The topics we discussed ranged from what do you love about Pinterest? to Do you actually make any of the recipes and crafts you pin? The conversation was lively  and not only did we learn so much from everyone who joined in, we also met some really interesting new people to follow.

One blogger we connected with was Aimee who shared that a group of craft and DIY bloggers were getting together for a real-life Pinterest Party.  Their mission: to make all those craft ideas they had been pinning on Pinterest.  Each woman brought a brunch item to share, $20 to cover materials and joined in for a day of crafting, connecting, and sharing.

Check out their supply set up.

And here's the group crafting away.

Aimee, Jaime, Andrea, Maegan, and Rebecca -- enjoying their Pinterest Party.

We thought this was such a fun idea that we sent along our favorite crafting tools by Slice for them to use.

This is Bev crafting some fabric earrings.

A fun shot of the group with their canvas craft.

You can read more about the groups Pinterest Party here. Also, we've listed all the craft and DIY bloggers' links below if you're feeling a bit crafty, check them out (and if you've gotten a sudden urge to hop on to Pinterest, you can connect with us here -- we're likely pinning right now too)!

Thank you for sharing Aimee, we can't wait to see what you make at your next Pinterest Party!
