Inspiration.
Walking around a fabric store the other day I felt the tingling sensation of inspiration.
Where does it come from? A colour, a memory, a person? I feel inspired by many things. So many I guess, I get a little lost in it. Depending on a mood, a season it can be harnessed. Sometimes.
It's like when you go to a Christmas party and it looks like Christmas exploded. Good or bad how does an idea become an action? Some are able to transform these thoughts into major realities.
So what makes it happen. Do you have to be naturally creative?? I think yes and no. Talent is certainly an asset. Knowledge and learning something new everyday but most of all its being inspired.
In the spring we are compelled to garden, clean and fix up. Summer with it's relaxed spirit gives us time to enjoy the little things. Fall and winter force us to be festive. You just can't help yourself from making name place settings or a wreath of some sort.
Instagram, Pinterest and blogs are gold mines for inspiration. You could literally ( and I have) sit for hours enjoying lifestyles and ideas, pretty much anything you could imagine.
Before these sites I fancied myself a creative being. Clearly I have been out glittered.
This inspires me though. I want to create my own ideas and style. Conquering the fear of something new. Enjoy another persons art or creation. These are things that keep life fresh.
Fabricland rolls of ideas. Had to stop myself a couple times!
A rainbow of inspiration. Ok so I am a little obsessed with colour!
