wednesday inspiration [lynsey fryers]
I don't know about you but I am definitely in the need of some mid week inspiration. And I found it ( lots of it!) in the portfolio of stylist Lynsey Fryers. Starting with one very cool idea for an inspiration board.
I just love the visual effect of posting fabric swatches and inspiring images over a pattern on the wall. Almost looks like the inspiration grew from the leaves. The colors in this photo also just inspired my next installment of cheap(er) chic! Her portfolio also contains some beautiful florals:
And lastly, it features some truly lovely color combinations (including one of my current favorites-rasberry and blue):
What do you do when you feel uninspired?

1. listen to great music
2. cook or read (i guess that's two)
3. go outside!
When I'm feeling uninspired? Well, first I mope around a lot and get all crabby towards the people around me. Then I watch TV and laze around a bit. None of this really helps though! Then I get my butt off the couch and explore a place I've never been to--it could be heading to a new part of town, going for a bike ride on a route I haven't taken...just getting out and seeing new things seems to energize me and make me want to channel that into my work!
raspberry and blue = awesome combo. why have i never thought of it before!? i LOVE that top photo. i LOVE the bottom photo. and the second-from-bottom photo. and the vase photo. and every other photo.
fantastic! so pretty. mm.
When I am feeling uninspired, I ususally have a cup of green tea and peruse fab blogs like yours, B!

as for my inspiration? lately i'm need a lot of it! usually i'll go through old magazines or take a little walk to remind me of simple, pretty things around me ... or visit lovely blogs like yours!
And when I'm uninspired? Well, Anne took the words out of my mouth. Except she said it better. I basically pout for a while, watch a bunch of TV, sulk, subject others to my bad mood. Then I eventually do something new...like this time, I took a cooking class and I'm totally invigorated. Just re-visiting something I've forgotten about (like in this case, cooking) helps me refocus and see things more clearly.
Sorry for the novel, but I've been suffering from a bout of uninspiration lately. :)

When I feel uninspired I begin to search for new pieces of inspiration that I can add to my ever-growing board. [Currently, it's an envelope of images, swatches, etc. that I will add to the board once I unpack it]!
I enjoy finding new colour cobinations, patterns, and textures, although in most cases I don't know where or how I can use them right away.
Your blog is so great for inspiration.
Awesome! We’re looking forward your blog
