Inspiration: Embroidery + drawings

24/06/2012 – 11:18

I recently discovered this great artist who combines embroidery with pencil drawings and watercolour. I must admit, I have a giant soft spot for mixed media art, I love it when two, at first sight totally different thing, become one. And this one, i must say, takes the cake! Seeing how embroidery (and other old fashioned handywork like knitting) is on a come back, I just love to see how people use their imagination to take these crafts and take them out of context.

I love it. See for yourself, I’ll bet you you’ll love it too!

Inspiration: Washi tape

09/06/2012 – 10:05

I guess everyone on Pinterest shares this love with me; Washi tape. Colorful masking tape which you can use for basicly anything and everything. I’m dying to use Washi tape in my house, and there’s always room for more inspiration in my head. So I went out (well, no, I stayed put behind the computer) and found myself some Washi inspiration.

Now I’m even more dying to wrap everything in Washi tape!

DIY: Lamps

05/06/2012 – 15:23

I have a sudden obsession with lamps. I think a nice (large) lamp can really set the mood of a room, whether it’s on or off. And seeing I apparently have a taste for really, really expensive lamps, I have been searching for nice DIY lamps. I found several, although not all of them have a great set on instructions (or any instructions at all). I’m planning on trying to make at least one of them, and will post a detailed DIY for that one…

All I have to decide now is which one to make.. Which is your favorite?

Inspiration: Defaced photographes

30/05/2012 – 18:59

Sometimes you find something and you can’t help but wonder; why didn’t I think of something like this? Today I found the website of Jen Gotch, who takes polaroids of everyday things and writes on them. I guess she writes what she’s thinking right then and there, but it’s not really explained anywhere… I do love these pics, because they are so raw and weird. They make you think different about the things you see on a daily base. And I love when things do that.

She has a lot more work featured on her website, you should check it out at Jen Gotch Photography

Fashion: In motion

When I saw this, I was like, WOW! It’s so simple and yet so beautiful. The clothing is fab, the decoration of the background is awsome and the overall atmosphere of the shoot, well, I wish I could think of it.
