cataloging inspiration...

One of my favorite things about design school was creating resource binders. I LOVED resource binders because it was a system of cataloging and organizing things I loved to look at. If I was ever in need of design inspiration I cracked open one of my many binders. I love to inspire and be inspired... then add organization to the mix and I am in heaven! I was elated when I found a way to catalog and organize online. I am completely obsessed with this website... and if you are looking for a way to get organized, whether it's recipes you find online, books you want to read or craft projects you want to try, I highly recommend checking it out. What I love about it is this... say you find a recipe online that you'd love to try sometime... rather than print it out and file it in a recipe binder, you "pin" a photo of the recipe to your very own recipe board on the site. When you are ready to use that recipe, simply click on your "pin" and you'll be linked to the original recipe. As I said... I'm pretty much obsessed with it!

Here's what has been inspiring me lately...
(the someday when I get my pre-baby body back outfit)


And this...
(yummy rug)


Oh and this...
(drooling over this cinnamon roll cupcake)


And this adorable thing...
(if only I knew how to knit... sigh)


And someday I want to do this to little Zachary's room...


I could go on and on. Get inspired...
