Have you ever found yourself in a bit of a funk, and you're determined to snap out of it? That's where I'm at right now. The weather here in Utah has been bleh to say it kindly . . . smog, polution, fog, you name the icky characteristic, and we've got it. That weather does bad things for my mood.
Today the sun snapped out from behind the clouds, thanks to a bit of snow. And you know what? I realized that seeing the sunshine is a huge inspiration for me! I was smiling all day. I wanted to create something. I wanted to organize and turn up some great music!
Along with sunshine, these are a few things that are inspiring me lately. It seems that red is a theme this month:
Don't you just love this wreath? I'm not usually a go-gaga-over-valentines-decor type of person, but seeing this wreath by SimplyDelightful just might help me change my mind. She made it out of 100 wool felt rosettes. Brilliant!
Seeing these stripey straws from Jack and Lulu really takes me back. Wouldn't it be fun to make rootbeer floats or shakes with the kids and use these paper straws from our childhoods?
Check out this room of the day from the Material Girls Blog. When I saw it I thought to myself:
- I want to go create a layout right now that is mostly white with bits of red sprinkled around. This room is so crisp and cool!
- If only I could afford a room like that!
- Yeah, right. Kids play in a white room, wear white clothes, and keep it neat and tidy like this one!
*Love* the piping of red on the ceiling. Soooo awesome!
