Greetings to all the Pinterest Moms out there!
You might have expected me to launch into a critique of Pinterest or the idea of crafting magical experiences for our children. But that’s not what this is about. This is a shout-out to all my fellow Pinterest Moms. I appreciate you, and I resonate with you because I am one of you. Yes, I proudly admit: I’m a Pinterest Mom, and I embrace it wholeheartedly. Not only do I gather inspiration on Pinterest, I actively bring those ideas to life.
But here’s the twist: I don’t do it for validation or to make other moms feel less than. Honestly, I don’t even do it primarily for my kids. I do it because I genuinely enjoy it.
That’s right! We Pinterest Moms thrive on creativity. We love crafting, decorating, cooking, and throwing parties. It’s all about the joy of creating, simply for the fun of it.
When we share our projects, it’s not about impressing anyone else. We understand that some moms might not appreciate our efforts, and that’s perfectly fine. We’ve seen the countless articles that portray us as show-offs or overachievers, and that’s not our intention. The pictures we post are for us, to celebrate our creative expressions.
So let’s rally together: PINTEREST MOMS, LET’S CELEBRATE our creativity! We want to see what amazing things others are creating, whether it’s a DIY project with clothespins or an artistic cake decorated with fondant. We find inspiration in each other’s work, and who knows? Maybe we’ll try our hand at something new because it looks like a blast!
We’re simply enjoying ourselves. There’s no magic formula at play here; we’re not competing with anyone. We just enjoy being crafty and creative, and that passion existed long before we became parents and will continue long after our kids have grown.
And if you don’t engage in crafting or baking with your kids, that’s completely okay. My own mother didn’t do those things with me, and I turned out just fine—if not a little obsessed with crafting. If you’re concerned about your children missing out, you can always provide them with some craft supplies or let them explore on their own.
Remember, it’s not a competition; we’re just having fun in our own unique ways. If your family enjoys other activities, like singing together, go for it! I promise not to feel inadequate in comparison.
