My Interest in Pinterest Started Decades Ago with a Band Aid Box!

  A childhood friend, Janie, and I exchanged metal bandage boxes when we were six years old.  What does that have to do with Pinterest?  Stay with me, please.  We exchanged the metal   boxes filled with “goodies” that we liked to share. My box might contain glittered fabric, a Cracker Jack toy, a picture of a pretty doll from the Sears Toy Catalog etc. (Yes, I am dating myself.)  Janie’s  box might contain a plastic purse for Barbie, a picture of a Lego set etc.  The boxes evolved into scrapbooks, then charm bracelets and as adults—magazine clippings, photo albums, and scrapbooks.  Get it?
