Here are a few new (to me anyway) places I have found inspiration this year:
Curlygirl Design Blog
If you haven't read Leigh's new blog yet - what are you waiting for??? Start from the beginning as she reminisces about her "Year of Creative Development" which includes taking every amazing art work shop in the country (and sometimes OUTSIDE of the country) and much, much more. If you need a creative fix, Curlygirl is your girl...
Where Women Create
I LOVE this magazine. I don't know why I had never ordered it before. Ever since my favorite magazine, Mary Engelbreit Home Companion, closed up shop, I have been looking to fill a void - and now it is officially filled. (OK - not really...I still miss you MEHC - please come back!)
Escape from Illustration Island Podcast
I love this podcast! I have recently started on a few new projects at night and these podcasts have helped inspire and inform. I like to fancy myself as an illustrator but know that I am really just a doodler with A LOT to learn.
American Pickers
This is my kind of reality TV for sure! I mean a show about hunting for vintage treasure? Seriously? What a great idea! Why didn't I think of it? I wonder if I can get some cameras to follow me around when I hunt for vintage fabric? :) Anyway, I think I also love this show especially because now that we live in Mississippi, I swear that we drive by some of the places that have been or WILL BE picked by the pickers.
So that's a wrap for my design inspirations of 2010 - my personal inspirations would be a whole new entry...ie: new baby, new home, etc...lots to be thankful for and inspired by... Anyway, I can hardly wait for what inspirations 2011 will bring. HAPPY NEW YEAR!
