How to use Pinterest to plan your Dream Home

I’m sure by now you have heard the buzz about the social photo sharing network, Pinterest. And if you are like most people, you are probably using it to plan your next meal, your next party, or your next craft. But, have you thought about using Pinterest to help plan your dream home? Pinterest is the perfect place to house all your ideas in one organized place. No, more carrying around a bulky binder with pages ripped out of magazines. Here are some suggested Pinterest boards that will get you started on planning your dream home.

  1. Home Exteriors– Let’s not down play the effect that curb appeal has on the home building process. Everyone wants a home that looks great on the outside and flows well on the inside. Here is a great board for exterior inspiration.

Now with the help of Pinterest, you can pin your favorite kitchen elements and show an actual visual to your builder. Want to see what painted cabinets look like, stove hood options, flooring and paint combinations. It’s all there.
