pinterest vs. magazines


Since the addition of pinterest (which I love), I don't find myself browsing magazines nearly as often as pre-pinterest days.  I'll admit, I miss ripping pages out and saving them to an inspiration board {with a big cup of coffee in my hand ;) }. Now with pinterest it seems easier & cheaper to log on & pin what inspires me versus browsing my favorite magazines.  In fact, I've found myself not renewing a lot of my magazine subscrtibions due to this.  

What about you?  
Do you find you still spend as much time flipping through magazines since pinterest has come around?

    Still love it when you get home from a long day at work to find a new mag in the mailbox! It's my treat at the end of the day.
    I love Pinterest and blogs but still enjoy the feel of real paper in my hands to read.

  3. I love pinterest and I pick up a magazine like a rare treat. It is a treat when I have time....that is the time I am not pinning!

  7. That's actually true, and I've never thought about it that way. Lucky for the inventors of Pinterest!

  8. I really prefer Pinterest now, just because it helps me organize my thoughts and inspirations so much more easily (and doesn't produce a bunch of physical clutter). I've even found myself wishing there was a way to pin pictures from my iPad edition of InStyle into Pinterest. =)

  9. I am an addict to Pinterest! I think because it is faster and easier to access, but there is nothing like a magazine full of inspiration on every page that is tangible. I still do both but find myself more on Pinterest.

  11. I think I'm developing the same problem. I love magazines but seem to have a problem now I've really sitting through and looking through an entire one ads and all. It's just easier to search images now! I think I've developed magazine ADD.
