It's a Pinterest Party!


Come and Party with us...Pinterest Style!


If you're anything like me, you've become ADDICTED to Pinterest! It's become my "go to" resource for finding inspiration for parties, crafts, recipes and sometimes just to have some comic relief (see below)!



Since everyone seems to always be planning something, I thought it would be fun to help a friend out & do a little planning ourselves. To make it fun, you can win a little prize just for dreaming and creating! So put on your creativity caps, make sure that pointer finger is primed for 'pinning' and let's create some inspiration boards!

Here's how it works: 


The 1st week of every month I'll be hosting a Pinterest Party with a new theme revealed right here on our blog. You'll have a full week to create the coolest, most unique and incredibly awesome board around the monthly theme. The board with the most Repins, Comments, Likes (total number all added up) at the end of the week will win a $35 Gift Certificate to Juju's Tutus. The Gift Certificates can be combined, so if you win 2 months you'll have $70! The GC will be good for 6 months from the issue date. A little birdy also told me that the cool chic over at Makmay Designs will kick in a gift certificate to her shop too if your winning board happens to have a Makmay item included! 

Intrigued? Good! 

Here are the guidelines (and some helpful tips): 


  • First, make sure you follow me on Pinterest! If you need an invite, send me an email.
  • Go to your profile & create a new board using our Monthly Theme.
  • Visit my Etsy shop Juju's Tutus or my Custom Flower Girl Tutu Dresses Board and find an item that goes along with the theme & PIN it on your board. Make sure to tag me, @Julie Read in your comment so I know you're playing along
  • A great board will have 20-25 unique and fun ideas.
  • Make sure to make your comments engaging so people will want to repin them!
  • Comment below the Monthly Theme Blog Post with the link to your Board so I know to check it out!
  • Feel free to share it on our Juju's Tutus Facebook Page as well. The more people who check out your board, the better!
  • Questions? Shoot me an email!
  • Have FUN!


Here's an example of a board that I quickly put together:
