This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of dio for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.
I spent entirely too much time this weekend playing with a fun new site, dio! Dio allows you to create a virtual place to express yourself. You can create a space in memory of a special day (like a wedding or the birth of your child), a place (that Disney trip you just took!) or express your interest and hobbies.
I created a place to showcase some of my favorite DIY jewelry creations. Because you can organize your place into several rooms, I could break down some of my favorites by category – creating rooms for stamping, wire wrapping, resin, woven pieces, beads and charms – all the techniques I enjoy the most!
Want to come take a little tour? Come follow me at dio! You can check out my space here!
While you are there, creating your own space is simple. Just name your space, add rooms, and add objects to each room. Your rooms can exit to other related rooms.
If you enjoy gardening, you could have rooms for your tools, for your flowers, your vegetables, and places to showcase what you do with those things. Do you make recipes from your home-grown veggies? Do you arrange fresh-cut flowers? Do you just enjoy your flower beds? Show it all off in your dio place!
You all know how much I love sharing my projects, so I created my place to celebrate all things jewelry-making. It's easy to do and I love how clean and organized it is to put different obkects into your rooms.

I created a room for some of my food creations – rebekahdawn_ak@yahoo.com
I signed up but something is wonky with the ToS agreement page and it won’t let me get passed it. If it worked, it should be under brittany-wilson@uiowa.edu OR shadowmoonsedai@gmail.com. I’m never sure which one Facebook is using at any given time.

Hopefully this will work. I keep getting an error message – You have too many URLs in your comment. Please go back and remove some
I signed up with this email and created a room for food. This post was really helpful, because I haven’t quite figured it out yet – but you gave me some ideas on organizing that I will have to try.

I tried to take a tour of your rooms, & that worked. But, whenever I tried to change the project from what was showing I couldn’t. What am I doing wrong? Also, can you post things you find online ( like pinterest) or is it only for things you upload yourself?
Thanks for any help.
