I’m starting a new category on homework which is actually my tagline “today’s assignment: be inspired”. When we create something, the inspiration came from somewhere - a tutorial, a magazine, a piece of artwork or perhaps a fond memory.
For instance, the inspiration for my branch photo holder came from little trees made out of wine corks that I saw on the Family Chic blog. I was going to make similar trees but didn’t have any wine corks. I decided instead to use branch clippings. From there I decided not to make trees at all but a photo holder.
Inspiration:
Tiny Trees - Family Chic
Result:
Branch Photo Holder - homework
Marilyn sent in this photo of quilted scraps that she ended up using to trim a robe. She said she was inspired by my scrappy pillow.

Julie sent in this IPad case that she made with felt. She said “you inspire me everyday”. Awwww – thank you so much Julie!
