Inspiration : 0611

I used to have a huge corkboard in my home office that I'd fill with pictures of things that inspire me. It might be a color or a mood, something pretty or silly, something I might want or dream about having.  I'm a very visual person so seeing these images was a way for me to let my mind get out of the day-to-day and into a more creative space; and it was also a way to stay in touch with the larger design-world outside of myself.

Since our move the corkboard has been standing empty in the master bedroom, but even before that it's been a long while since I pulled images together, or did anything even remotely inspiring for that matter. So in an attempt to get myself back to a more creative space, I'm going to try to post inspiration boards here.

This one is about summer serenity and another reflection of where my head's at right now: easy, pretty and cool. What's inspiring you these days?
