I am loving my latest inspiration board because the images remind me of my friends. I see this every time I walk into my office and the exposure to it is so good for me.
In this collage, everything looks beautiful together and blends with the pages I've torn from House Beautiful. You'd think one person chose all of these images to work together, but no.
The bright purple and pink postcards of Paris are from Sue. The John Derian giraffe card is one I bought when I was in New York with Kerry. A scene from Monet's Garden was mailed to me by Melissa. Most of the magnets are from Angie. There's a Happy New Year card of Big Ben from Renate. And two postcards of northern Michigan I got when I was out galavanting with my mom.
This board is good for me - a Visual Vitamin representing both what I love and who I love. Are you taking your visual vitamins?
Lately my inspiration board is much more about what I want to look at, than what I want to do. It is unlikely that I will perform in a ballet with like-minded girls in sunset colored tutus, but I love this image from House Beautiful magazine so much (it was a page showing how to choose paint colors based on images you love - see the matching paint color dots below?) that I put it on my magnetic board, front and center.
I have pretty magnets (more magnets than images right now!), cards from friends, landscape drawings and floral bouquets. This is what I love to look at and it inspires me all day long. Want one of your own? My white metal board is from Ikea and I found a similar magnetic panel at Ikea here.
