[PinterestGabby]

We’re excited to welcome you all to this community! Please take a minute to introduce yourself and share a bit about your business, how you use Pinterest and what you're looking forward to being a part of the community. We can't wait to meet you! 

[PinterestGabby]

Wow, I realized I started this thread but didn't even introduce myself, I've been getting too caught up reading everyone's amazing intros!! 😂

My name is Gabby, I'm born and raised in Seattle [any PNW folks here?!] and moved to San Francisco about a year ago. I've been an avid Pinterest fan since the early days, pinning everything from destination wedding inspo to sheet pan dinners. Lately, I've been using this extra time at home pinning pantry storage ideas and other home projects. I have my eye on some fun peel and stick wallpaper for the bedroom, gotta get around those renters restrictions somehow! 

@PinterestJanice and I are here to support you all for whatever you need, so please don't hesitate to reach out -- whether that's feedback about the site, fun ideas for the community or just to say hi! We can't wait to build something special with you all. 📌💕

Hello! I'm excited to check out this new feature with Pinterest! My name is Melissa and I'm the Founder of @livinginthewait, an online resource created to encourage and guide those who find themselves in a period of uncertainty wondering when their wait will end. I'm a first-time mom, avid blogger, speaker and infertility advocate. Currently, I'm working on a collective course focused on the infertility journey, where I'll share some of the common and uncommon things you’ll want to know.

[darciefyi]

This is great! I'm Darcie, and I don't blog enough or save enough Pins about my own business. But I love helping other Pinners and Pinterest Businesses. I used to do it through a former community support system (hi @kellylieberman 😀), and now fellow sewing and craft bloggers in Facebook groups just tag me in their questions. I like to keep an ear out for what's going on in the Pinterest world!

We sell here (pic), online and in stores around the country.

@angellawery way to get back in the groove!! Welcome to the community. 

@melissanikohl welcome! I'm willing to bet there are other teachers on this community who would love to connect with you. I'd love to hear more about what new resources teachers are developing to adapt to this new-normal and not being in classrooms. 🤔

@darciefyi happy to have you here! Were you a part of #PinChat, by chance?
