Inspiration 7
Top/Left:
This is an old clipping from Vogue I've had saved from my art school days. One of our instructors had us start collecting torn out pages from magazines for inspiration files. This one lured me in because of it's beautiful theatrics... the jewelry from this photo shoot still stirs my creative juices. I'm also head over heels with the beaded jewelry of Ana Banana on flickr. Her pieces are so colorful, and inspiring.
Top/Right: I was first introduced to Amy Rupel's layered assemblages by Karen of Kraf-o-la. They are the most amazing things. I love the depth and texture of her work, that she achieves by using beeswax & resin as one of her mediums. You can also find her lovely designs on pillows, cards, and t-shirts.
Row 2/Left: Ingredients: 1 can of beer, 1/2 teaspoon of sugar and several clumps of garden moss + stencil = moss graffiti.
I know it's been shared many times before, but I still think it's so innovative! To see more artwork by Helen Nodding visit her website Stories from Space...while there be sure to check out her insect bridges & secret worlds. Genius!
Row 2/Right: Vintage fawn silver necklace by Moss Mills, is available online at Doe. Be sure to explore their other goods too. The magnetic birds look really sweet... they chirp too!
Row 3/ Left: I collect blue and white china, and I love Tord Boontje's designs. That said, I'm completely loving his table stories collection. It's so clever! To see more visit Mocoloco, and Friend.
Row 3/ Right: I recently came across these flower making kits at the Paper Source and thought they were so cheerful... and unlike real flowers you won't ever feel that twinge of guilt about cutting off beauty in it's prime.
Row 4/ Left: I received the prettiest letter from Amanda of Frenchtoastcake on Jill Bliss's, Native Flowers Stationary this afternoon. It really brightened my day. There's nothing better then getting letters in the mail from your friends, especially when it comes on such beautiful paper. Thankyou!
Row 4/ Right: I'm such a project runway junkie! This Kimono dress was designed by Kara. Sadly she wore it on the runway on the episode that she was "Auf Wiedersehen"-ed by Heidi Klum. I couldn't stop thinking about this dress though. I was happy to find out that she's selling it online. It's available in a few different colors on her website.
**
(speaking of....) I really loved Kara's use of color on the runway at fashion week... you can check out her collection at New York Metro. Ok... I know if you're a fan of Project Runway you're dying to peek at the "final 3", so here's Chloe's, Santino's, and Daniel's collections too!
