Inspiration

The other day I found myself working for 13 hours straight on designs - I never even noticed I had not eaten until about 8 hours in...I was inspired! It didn't even feel like work - it felt like fun. I couldn't wait to finish my leftovers, in order to get back to it - I had to warm up my coffee 4 times before I finally finished the cup! One of my friends and even my husband wondered how that was possible? But anyone in a creative field will be able to relate to this experience!

I love designing!!! When someone calls to work on a new project - I can't wait to hear what it will be...maybe a kitchen, maybe an ensuite, maybe a boudoir, maybe a nursery, maybe an office/den, maybe a whole colour scheme for a home...whatever it is, I can't wait to get started! Inspiration follows. It can come from anywhere and strike at any time, and when it does...an idea comes to paper and then paper comes to life.

The inspiration is the part that makes it all happen and drives me on. It can come from a magazine, a piece of art, a sunset, the bubble that arises when I'm washing dishes, a piece of furniture, an old piece of clothing, the colour the spices created in the dish I'm cooking...absolutely anywhere! If you're looking for inspiration to get you through a situation or create a direction to follow in a project, all you have to do is open your mind to it. Don't "look" for it directly, just relax and start to notice the things around you. All of a sudden, something will catch your eye, your thoughts will start to form and you are on your way! Inpsiration - coming soon to the world around you...
