It has been so much fun to see all of your fun photos. I feel like I am getting to know many of you and recognize your instagram faces and feeds! Are you enjoying playing along? I am! Although I still have missed several days, I am enjoying the challenge and it gets me taking photos of my everyday life.
Many of you have been anxious to see the Instagram Challenge prompts for the month of March…So…without further ado…here they are, the March Photo a Day Challenge 2013!
What is exactly is photo-a-day you say?
Every month I share with you some photo prompts or suggestions for each day of the month. You can play along by taking a picture of your interpretation of the prompt (or come up with your own if you don’t like it).
How do I play along?
You can share your photos through any of the social media platforms: Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, your Blog, Flickr, etc.
You can tag me @theidearoom on your social media sites too if you want me to be able to see it! I love to see what my readers are sharing! It makes my day!
Simply add the hashtag #idearoom so that the rest of us who are playing can follow along and we can all see your photos.
What is a hashtag and how does it work? A hashtag is the pound sign (#) followed by a word of short phrase (without a space) that describes or classifies your tweet or photo on Twitter or Instagram. If you click on a hashtag you will be taken to a list of tweets or pictures all containing the same hashtag.
How can I see other people’s photos?
Once you’ve shared your own photo, and included the hashtag #idearoom, simply click on the the hashtag. You will be taken to a screen with everyone’s photos who have also added the idearoom hashtag. Go ahead and comment and like each other’s photos. This way everyone has fun!
What if you forget a day…or 2…or 20?
Not a big deal…really! Just start up again. You can play catch up, or just start again. No one will care…I promise. Heck…I skipped plenty of days when life got too crazy and the prompts are mine!! Share with your friends and family! Have fun. The point is to get you to record your everyday moments. To capture a small snapshot of your day.
But remember…The Idea Room is a family friendly site! Let’s keep it that way people!

I’m tempted to join!
If I understand correctly (the first time)…
Every day I take a picture the next theme, I post on my blog, facebook or Pinterest marked with # idearoom?Is that all?
I do not have to tell you another way that you can see my photos?
Thanks

If you click on #idearoom or #theidearoom (either one) and you have no spaces in between them, it is a link to everyone else’s pictures on Instagram and Twitter. If however you are posting them on Facebook or Pinterest, you will have to tag me on those social media sites. Facebook you can tag me with @The Idea Room and on Pinterest you will have to tag me with @Amy Huntley if you want me to see them.
You can tag on Instagram and Twitter with #theidearoom and I will be able to see it. If you share on FB or Pinterest you will need to tag @theidearoom for FB and @Amy Huntley for Pinterest if you want me to see it. If you don’t care if I see it, which is totally fine, you can just share it with your friends and such. But tagging it will allow others playing along to see it!
I’m going to give this a whirl! :). I am one of your newest “followers” on Instagram!
Amy–I’ve seen your challenges before and have never participated, but I am doing it in March! I’m also sharing it with my readers on Friday (with a link back here) so hopefully they will join in too! The more the merrier, right?
Thanks!
Cindy
Yay! Thank you so much Cindy! I am so glad you will be participating with us. And I really appreciate you sharing it with your readers! Yes! The more the merrier! I will have to remember to stop on over to your site when you have it posted!
I LOVE doing the photo-a-day’s! Somehow I missed yours last month though! I’m in for march!! :D

Yay! So glad to hear you will be joining with us!
Awesome! I’m in!
I started a picture-a-day challenge on my birthday last year, which ends on March 2nd, so this is a perfect way to keep going and mix things up a bit!
This sounds like so much fun! I’m in!
Amy! I’ve taken up the challenge on my blog, and I’m linking to you every time. Thanks for the great inspiration!
I’ve never done a photo-a-day before. I signed up for Instagram to play along with you.
This is fun :)
