Since I’ve started blogging I have come across hundreds upon hundreds of Irish Blogs that I didn’t know existed, and they’re really good blogs too. People blog about everything – photography, animals, baking, cooking, beauty, books, art, politics, gardening, crafty stuff and my favourites are the personal blogs, the windows into people’s lives. There’s a whole community out there that we don’t know the half of.
Anyway, we all have our online readers where we keep track of latest blog posts and we tweet and Facebook links left right and centre. Sometimes, these tend to be the same bloggers and we don’t tend to step outside of our box. So around the time of the Blog Awards Ireland I created two Pinterest Boards for blogs.
One board is dedicated to Irish Blogs so you can browse through it and see what tickles your fancy.
The second board is Latest Irish Blog Posts. I have set this up so that once you are invited to pin on the board you can pin your latest blog post. You can use it as much or as little as you like. It’s a nice way to connect with other bloggers and for people to read yours.
So, if you want me to add your blog to the Irish Blog Board, let me know (you don’t have to join Pinterest).
If you’re already on Pinterest and want to pin your latest blog posts to the Latest Irish Blog Posts board, start following me on Pinterest, let me know who you are by commenting below, Tweeting me or FaceBooking me.
If you are not on Pinterest, let me know and I can send you an invite.
Simples.
Happy Blogging and pinning!

Would love an invite please! Ironically I I have just spent an hour pinning my own blog to my different pinterest accounts! Great idea!
No problem. Are you following me already? Some people have different names and I don’t know who they are. I’ll add you to both boards
Yes! Please do include me on this. Great idea. Thank you!!!! WIll you put this up on Irish Parenting Bloggers on FB too? Cheers!!!
Brilliant Gwen. Are you on Pinterest? If so let me know when you follow me and I’ll add you. I don’t think I’m on the Irish Parenting Bloggers on FB :/
I can’t actually add you as there’s no usable images on your site (ie. your header/photos are too small!)
Yes send me an invite this sounds great. Might take me a while to figure out Pinterest though
I’m Clare Scott and my boards so far are Westown Life and The Easel Weasel if thats any help?
There are lots of Clare Scotts! Can you follow the Latest Irish Blogging Board by clicking the link above and then I can follow you and send you an invite!
You have to follow a board of mine before I can send invite!
Ach sorry, thought I had done that…see it’ll take me a while…
Found you! You had followed me, I just can’t put 2 + 2 together today
From my 10 minutes experience on the thing it seems to be acting up a bit. I have to do everything twice
You’ll be addicted in no time!
I think I am already!I am starting to follow cakes!:)
OK I had done that but it musn’t have taken so I am unfollowing and then following again.
I’m not on Pinterest, but I do have a blog (although I’ve been so crazy busy these past couple of months with craft fairs that I’ve not blogged in a while…but I hope to get right back to doing so, soon). Thank you for the invite!
Let me know when you want to join
Thanks, Limmster. I’m not on Pinterest and I don’t do the Facebook thing either. So can I still be added to it?
I can just add your blog to the Irish Bloggers board. Or if you like I can send you an invite to join Pinterest!
Yes, please. it’d be great if you added my blog to the Irish Bloggers Board. Also, please do invite me to Pinterest. I’ve no idea how to ‘work it’ (but will give it a try). Thanks very much.
I’ve sent it the gmail email you’ve used in your comment! Any questions just shout
Thanks very much, Belle.

Hi Kevin. I can’t seem to see your profile, could you tweet me a link so I can follow you and add you
Great idea, I don’t think I’m on your Irish blog board but I must have a read of some of the others.
I’ll add you Val. I’d say there’s a whole heap that need to be added! I’ll get on that after dinner
Great idea Belle. But I feel more of my free time being sucked away by the computer… drat and yay! Well done
Could you add me too? Please and thank you
Done
Mine is a work in progress but would love you to have a look! ilovesundaymorning.com

Of course! Are you following me on Pinterest already? I’ll send you an invite to the board…just as soon as I find my mac!
I have a pinterest account and am following just you now but not a big user
Brill, that’s ok, sorry to ask but what’s your name on Pinterest so I can do a search. Pinterest isn’t updating my followers properly.
I love it, just add my recent blog post to the board and am reading loads of blogs I never read before!
Could my blog be added to the Irish Bloggers board as well?
Of course Dawn! I’ll add it now. Trying to keep up with everyone is getting hard

Hello! Love this idea:) Could you add my blog to the board too?
Im Sarah Jane from The Brightnessproject.com
Adding you now! Are you on pinterest too?
Thank you:) Yes I am sorry – http://pinterest.com/sjmakes/
Have I been invited? Can’t seem to manage to pin a post. Old and thick. Sorry.
Hi Rita. You have indeed been invited. I just logged on and double checked. I had a look at your profile and you are on the board. Any more problems let me know!
Hi Limmster, could you add me too please? I don’t have a Pinterest account though.
Invite sent! Enjoy

Hi there, would love to be added. What a great idea. I have signed up to Pinterest and followed you [i think] but don’t really use it but maybe this will make me now!
Hello! Of course I’ll add you. What’s your Pinterest address? I can’t find you in the followers, Pinterest can be really fussy with updating with the latest info.
Hi my address is Girlfromthehills blog i think! If you can’t find me let me know.
I’m so sorry, I can’t find you. I’ve gone through all my followers. Can you copy and paste the link of your profile, that seems to work when other people have done that.

Hope this works
Yeay! I found you and you have been invited! Happy pinning
Thanks
I’m so sorry, I can’t find you. I’ve gone through all my followers. Can you copy and paste the link of your profile, that seems to work when other people have done that. Or DM on twitter, I’ll login and check.
We would love to be invited to the board please! We are Curious Design and have followed you and the Irish Blogs Board, we have two blogs http://curiouscasa.com/ and http://curiousdesign.ie/category/blog/ Thanks!
Thank you! I’ll sort that invite out a bit later when I’m at my computer
Super! Thanks
Great idea by the way!
Hello! Invite has been sent. Happy Pinning!
Thank you!
Hello, I’m Angela, and I just came acrossthis today, it is such a great idea! I would love you to add my blog http://sewmentalmama.blogspot.ie/ and I also use tumblr http://sewmentalmama.tumblr.com/ . I have followed the board on Pinterest. I’ll never be able to get off Pinterest now
Forgot to leave my Pinterest link! http://pinterest.com/sewmentalmama/
Thanks! I’ll do that tomorrow as I need to be at my computer and have literally just got into bed
Great! Thanks
I don’t seem to be able to add any posts to the boards, though I’m following both. Is there something else I need to do?
Hi Angela, I’ve added you to the Knitting, Sewing and Crochet boars, would you like to be added to any others? You should also have an invite to the Latest Irish Blogs board at this point
This is a great idea- I’d love to join in! I’m not on pinterest yet
If you’d like an invite just DM me your email and I’ll send you one
I think you started following me earlier?
I did indeed
I only found you today- Paula sent me
Oh good heavens, I didn’t realise I could pin blog posts? Thought Pinterest was just for photos? I am feeling SO out of touch right now!
Adding that to tomorrow’s to-do list!
Feeling thick, and struggling to get my head around sharing blog posts on Pinterest…but my blog is http://morethanmelts.wordpress.com/
And my Pinterest acct is http://pinterest.com/carolinecurious/
Hi, I just came across this today! I recently started an Irish blog that I would love to share with others!I’ve followed both boards on Pinterest!
I never thought of sharing posts on Pinterest, I only ever use it for pictures! x
Hi Megan! I’m sorry for the delay. I see you’ve commented on the new post too. I’ll add you straight away. It was actually your post that prompted me to do a bloggers pinterest account
x
Oh really? Glad to be a reminder
Thanks a million! xx
No problem! Happy pinning. Please do RT/FB etc
x
How do I pin things on the board? Sorry I am a bit of a Pinterest novice, I don’t really use it that much!! x
Ok so, you can pin on the latest Irish Blogs Board. I’ve just sent you an invite. When you click ‘Add Pin’ a drop down menu should appear and you can select that category. Please only pin the latest blog post or it’ll get over run and a bit spammy! Any more q’s just shout. My little one is up now, but I will get back to you asap
x
Ok no problem everything is working grand now
Thanks a million it’s such a great idea! Have a nice day
x
Hi, I think this is a cool idea. Am always looking for new blogs to follow and would love to be included. My blog is http://www.corasherlock.com and my pinterest account is http://pinterest.com/corasherlock/ Never even realised I could pin posts!! #Technophobe
Hi Cora! I’ve sent you an invite
What category would you like to be added to?
Thank you! Which category is a toughie – I usually describe my blog as ramblings of nonsense. But seeing as there isn’t a category for that, maybe Lifestyle or Humour? I’d like to say Culture but that could be pushing it. Great idea, have found lots of new stuff to read!
Hi Cora! I can create a board of Ramblings if you like? In the meantime I will add you to personal? And you can let me know when you decide about the others. Have you gotten your invite to accept to pin on the Latest Irish Blog Posts boards?
Actually, I meant to put Personal rather than Lifestyle.
Hi Belle,
Thanks a mill! Have received invite and pinned most recent post. Am hoping this will encourage me to blog more regularly ie more than once every three – six months! I think Personal is the best home for me having looked at the others there. Thanks again for doing this!!!
Cora
