This weekend I had the privilege of attending a Pinterest Party! You can read more about it HERE. And since we’re all Pinterest friends here at Pinning! I thought I’d share with you some of the fun “pins” that inspired some of the snacks we ate, gifts we exchanged and crafts we made:

What’s a Pinterest party without this dip?
It’s to die for and what I made for the party.

 

:: Peanut Butter Secrets ::
These were also at the party, so yum!

 

:: Peanut Butter Bars ::

:: Salted Caramel Pretzel Bites ::
What a great idea, and these were so tasty!

The gift I made for the exchange was a cross between the next two pins.

:: Vintage Word Necklaces ::
These inspired a gift exchange item.
