FINDING INSPIRATION


Happy Thursday everyone! I've been pretty bad at posting lately, I blame this on the lack of inspiration I've put myself around as of late. So today I woke up and searched my house for just those little trinkets to get my creative juices flowing. From flower crowns, to pretty guitar picks, a geometric poster, and of course my favorite photograph of the mister. And then it dawned on me that inspiration is always all around, you just have to open your eyes. So if you are lacking some inspiration today take a look around. Really see the things that constantly surround you that you may be taking for granted and find their beauty. Challenge yourself to take pictures everyday of anything and everything that captures your eye and soon that creative outlet will be bursting at the seams. Here's to inspiration!

  10. ok, i'm completely (completely, completely) in love with that first photograph, lady. i think this is such a good message too. and honestly, exactly how i was feeling the other night. i think it's so important as bloggers to remind ourselves of that. sometimes it's not so much about creating an entirely new experience (or image, or idea, etc.) as it is about finding a new perspective to come at it from. : ) xo.

  23. Beautiful pictures! I found myself taking pictures of folded laundry today... something about the folded up pieces looked beautiful in the winter sun. It's easy to lack for inspiration, and then you find that it is right in front of you:)

  52. I am loving your blog. I completely understand what you mean, I definitely struggle with posting when I have lost inspiration. It's definitely hard to keep up fresh ideas at times and I have absolutely found inspiration from the things that are sitting around my space! Love the items you chose to share with us. Your phone case is super cute!

  56. It's great to take inspiration from every day things! Whenever I lose inspiration I try to get out/ go for a run. Vancouver is so beautiful I find just running around the city provides me inspiration and creativity!
