It's finally here! It is my day to join so many other creative people in the blog.it.forward mashup. Thanks so much to
Victoria for hosting this and to
hashai for sending it my way from her post last Friday. Tomorrow's post will jump to Lehua of
Heart on My Sleeve, whose blog I have enjoyed perusing lately, so be sure to check her post out. And now to it, what inspires me (in as small a space as I can fit it):
Midcentury Modern Design in all of it's streamlined glory,
especially when it can live in harmony with
something rustic,
and understated Scandinavian design, especially when done in a
white on white color scheme.
Oh, and beautiful lettering:
like these from designer
Jessica Hische,
and even better when they are hand-drawn and accompanied by beautiful illustrations like these from
Rifle Paper Co.
I am also inexplicably inspired by garlands and banners
it is amazing how much joy I can find in some scraps of paper or fabric.
Lastly, I am inspired to create and spend more time in the studio when I see beautiful hand-thrown ceramics like
those of
eva zeisel
and
edith heath.
There is so much more to be inspired by and I am happy to say it would take years to share all of it! That is really what this space is for me on a daily basis, so I hope you will stop back by.
Also, check out these other bloggers that are also posting their inspirations today as part of this mash-up:
alyson is neat,
my little apartment,
b's wig shoppe,
pink o'clock,

sherbet blossom, and
