The Pinterest Galleries

Pinterest Pins
I wanted a unique 3D image of the
Pinterest logo, and found this on Norebbo
(Moved from GoDaddy)

One thing it's taken me forever to do is to sort through my Pinterest collections.  At one time, I had a gallery of specific images linked in the original website, and I might do that for certain galleries.  Not everything in my Pinterest galleries are Mayfair Witches-related, not by a long shot.  However, I found some wonderful pins I'd saved that I thought I would reorganize.

I've added a link to Pinterest in the Social Media section of this page.  You'll see several public galleries, but the Mayfair Witches-related one is "Anne Rice".  When you open it, you'll see some images of her, quotes and additional sections by topic.  There is, of course, a Lives of the Mayfair Witches section, but there are some others as well, such as a few pins about the Vampire Chronicles.

To further help sort out any ongoing confusion as to which house Anne Rice actually used as Rowan Mayfair's New Orleans house in the novels, you'll see a lot of images of the Brevard-Rice house in their own section.  These are images we've probably all seen a million times.  However, there is another house that I've seen in various places cited as the Mayfair house--its neighbor, the Carroll-Crawford house.  I've put pins I'd saved that are of that house in their own section.

Finally, over the years, images from my original website (a link to which is in the footer of this site) have found their way onto Pinterest.  I'm guessing by way of Share buttons or something or other.  I had to create a fresh new page for Inside First Street on the original website, which is one of the most frequently visited pages of the Parlor even now.  When you see the section called "From My Website", that is what it means.  

You'll even find the Talamasca business card I made using SketchUp!  It is the same image used for the Talamasca Files section on this web page.  No, I'm not kidding.  I made the business card looking as it might have in 1959, when Rita Mae Dwyer went to visit Deirdre Mayfair, who gave it to her with a plea for her to contact the Talamasca because Deirdre's baby (Rowan) was going to be taken away from her.  I think I added David Talbot because...don't remember.  

So, to wrap this up, I'm giving my Pinterest board an overhaul.  When you take a look at it, don't be alarmed if things get changed around a bit between visits.  I'm reorganizing it due to the sheer amount of boards I have that could be organized under categories.  Obviously, I've used Pinterest since before this option was available...
