A new blog and lots of inspiration!
March 7, 2010
I finally made the switch over to Wordpress. I have been wanting to do it for awhile now because there are so many cool things that you can do with this system. Simon did a fabulous job making my design come to fruition so big thanks to him for all of the hard work (and on my new website too, LOVE it!). I love that I can design and know that I don’t have to do the coding part (my least favorite thing about web design). This also gives me a chance to showcase what we can do with blog design. Sometimes, I have clients that don’t need the whole shebang when it comes to their business so this gives them a great option.
I also have big plans for the new blog with loads of features, giveaways and fun things. I have a whole folder of edited photos so watch out for lots of photography posts. If you haven’t notice a lot of my recent inspiration comes from the style and look of the fifties. For various reasons lately I have been very into that time period. I even gave my bangs a little retro cut (photo of that sometimes…maybe). So expect lots of things to be posted that inspire me. Being a creative professional (like that phrase right?) inspiration is extremely important to me, without it I would be out of a job so I think it’s important to inspire others if I can. I have several blog reads that are a “go to” when I need a little jolt and I love that so I am really building my new blog around that notion.
So speaking of all this inspiration, I found a new magazine that is completely awesome. I love typography and so every time I spot something with a cool font or layout, I try and snap a photo. Well, this one moved me so much that I snatched it up and purchased it. In fact, I am thinking about just breaking down and subscribing because there are so many cool ideas in it. It’s called freshHOME and it’s all about DIY projects for your house (another goal of mine this year…finish decorating my house).
So I would love to know what inspires you! Post a comment and let me know.

Loooove the new look! And you totally need to post the pics of your new bangs. I am inspired by so many things. I was at the park with Miss L over the weekend and had my sketchbook in hand and just kept seeing so many shapes and textures that sparked my creativity.
Thank you so much Mary!! I will try and see if I can get The Baconator to snap a photo of me (but we know how those usually turn out).
So cool about your inspiration, it really can come from anywhere.
