Inspiration

What inspires you?

I love shopping on Etsy & reading magazines & blogs ~

it's one of my most favorite things to do. 

I get inspired, motivated, & entertained from blogs.

Where else do designers get motivation?

Is this not the most amazing color of blue?

Architecture

Architecture is amazing & inspirational.  I take joy in soaking up all forms of architecture.

Whether its basking in front of a Monet or looking at old streets in France or Italy,

I enjoy it!

Other forms of inspiration are Music, Photography, & Imagination.

Design elements such as Textiles, Shapes, & Color also evoke inspiration. 

Dorothy Draper (the Queen of Design) says to pull pictures of magazines,

& use them as a reference.  Don't be afraid of color!! "Living without

color is like living without love" ~Kelly Wearstler.

Designer's Guild is one of my favorite places to find inspiration.
The colors, prints, & textures makes my heart melt.
Fabric is deinitely my weakness & where my talent lies.

I wish I knew where I got this photo.  It was on my desktop for a long time.

I'm in awe of the french furniture, the pink draperies, & the art on the small side table,

the amazing sconce.... I'm amazed by it every time I look.

I keep a file on my desktop of my favorite chairs, room views, dressers...

Somtimes they change but I'm always inspired.
