Inspiration

I've been spending time cruising Etsy lately looking for inspiration.  I thought it might be fun to share a few of the things that have been sparking my creativity. 

First, this gorgeous fabric from Cotton Threads

this fabric also from Cotton Threads is totally becoming a blanket if I find out the baby we're adopting is a boy!

EVERYTHING from Atelier Sonatine - tons of cute Japanese fabrics that remind me of the illustrations from the Richard Scarry books I read over and over again as a child.

(on a total side-note, my very very favorite book as a child was The Fourteen Bears in Summer and Winter.  We've got my copy of it and it is lovingly trashed from much use.  Just looked it up on Amazon and it apparently is a lot of people's favorite cause its totally expensive.  Maybe I better take care of it; I don't wanna have to replace it!)

This sweet doll pattern on Dear Madelyn

This gorgeous vintage crane pendant on My Shangri La.  I think cranes are the most beautiful bird

LOVE this little dish on The Brick Kiln

this polar bear pattern from Forever T&M has got to go in my repertoire!

 

All of the awesome wood toys at Woman Wood Worker ... I love the quality!

This is just some of what's inspiring me lately.  What's inspiring you?
