I am easily inspired because I love creating, whether it is with food, fabric, or decorating my home. Color inspires me especially in the Spring when things start to bloom (guess, I'm waiting for that).
I also am alwasys inspired by reading my favorite blogs, this one included. Love your new banner and spring look.
Thanks for the giveaway...please include me. Wow..300 posts.

Tracy said...

There is so much that inspires me, but I would have to say I gather a lot of inspiration from nature and it's calming influence.

Beautiful items you are offering for your giveaway! :)

Diva Kreszl said...

What a wonderful and generous giveaway...please count me in! I am most certainly inspired by vintage items and this past weekend had the opportunity to go to a local art museum where vintage sewing notions were incorporated into the work, it really got my wheels turning! Congrats on your 300th post!!!

Let's see, what inspires me? Vintage lace, old photographs, vintage fabric, and antique jewelry. All are beautiful and bring something of their past lives to their new owners.

VS said...

I'm inspired simply by finding an old black & white image or a lovely vintage turn of the century French postcard. The images make my mind wander into a dreamlike state where fairy's can catch a ride on the back of a bird or baby's are hatched from ostrich eggs, where mermaids are real & all of this takes me to a place where I can FLY!!!
Smiles,
Susie

Sandra Foster said...

First I want to say I just love how you have your blog "dressed". The roses on old text - this is the kind of thing that inspires me. Anything pastel inspires me in general.
Thanks for the opportunity for the giveaway. Sandra

Barbara said...

Sharon, thanks for the opportunity to win your fabulous treasures. Depending on what I want to create, my inspiration can come from colors, photos, or writings. It seems after a day of wandering around antique shops I start to look through my own old photos.

I added myself as a follower. I can't believe I didn't do that sooner since I have you on my favorite blog list! Well, just know I love to visit you for nostalgia and inspiration.

Hugs,
Barb

Hi Sharon,

I have been a follower of yours for just a few weeks now and I love to drop by and take a peek at your newest creations. I find creative inspiration in so many places. Out side in my back yard there are always beautiful birds to watch. Going for rides in the car and taking pictures of different places. Walking into my craft room inspires me. Blog surfing and looking at all the wonderful creative ladies such as yourself. It would be an honor to win one of your lovely works of art.Thank you for the chance.
Hugs and Blessings, Susan

I just came over to your Blog from Creative Breathing - and immediately fell in love with your site! The colours are gorgeous! I know I will be popping in for more visits in the future. I think I get inspired by pretty much everything - especially when I'm outside enjoying nature - and of course from all my friends (local and virtual). Please consider me for your Give Away! Jewels
