Creativity // Having Inspiration Around You

Friday, October 02, 2015

Obviously it comes to no surprise that I am a big lover of all things inspirational. If you've been following this blog from near the beginning you may remember my old "Weekly Words" posts that I would share on a Friday and would have some quote that I had "designed" up on Illustrator then some words about why they were important to me. But yeah anyway, as I was saying, I love to be surrounded by inspiration and my bedroom wall is no exception!

A while ago I read one of Charli Marie's posts about basically having wall art and also watched her YouTube video about hanging these pieces up and started getting me thinking about my own "wall of inspiration". 

My wall is mainly covered in postcards from Paperchase just due to the fact that I visit the store often, the postcards are cheap and they're usually pretty darn cute! But I do have the odd piece of artwork on my wall that I have bought from an artist and it honestly just livens it up so much more!

The main reason I think it's important to have a wall like this, whether you're a creator or not is that not only does it look aesthetically pleasing but it can really give you that little extra push to get your work done! So many of the pieces I have on my wall that I have bought myself are typographical ones with inspirational quotes.

Although, my wall does also have little keepsakes around it too, with postcards from places I've visited, to old Polaroids from when I was a kid. Including these things on my wall really gives it a personal touch and makes me happy when I look at them and think of those memories.

Do you have your own inspiration wall/space? Where do you get your stuff from?
