Inspiration

When I start working on a new project
I like to collect all kinds of things...
that will inspire me along the way...
....pretty colour combinations, contrasting patterns,
interesting textures and images....
amongst everyday objects which are all around me.
It helps me to gather my thoughts and ideas
and then stops me wandering!
I love these fresh and cheerful colours.
They are brightening up the days in
our little corner of England!
Hmm...stripes, spots and bows...
and seafaring tales...

Also, on another note....
if you are looking for a new cook book,
this is a great read with lots of traditional recipes from around the British Isles
There are also interesting notes about the history
that lies behind them and lots and lots of lovely photographs....
bakeries, tearooms, harbours, bunting...

The photographs of Mousehole brought back
some lovely memories of a family trip

a few years ago.
Such a very pretty place!

Wishing you all good things

ReplyDeletemaar die kleuren van jou zijn ook mooi fris, lente!!!

Hi Susan,
ReplyDeleteThat is exactly the way I work when I start on a new doll!
First collect everything I need before I start.
I also like to have that all around me.
I have my first give away on my blog.....
