When is an ‘inspiration wall’ not an inspiration wall?
When it’s been up for almost two years and you’ve stopped seeing it anymore…
I have a creative room out in my backyard. Our garage was converted to a sleepout by previous owners and now we’ve set it up so half of it is guest-room (well, guest-nook) and half is my creative space.
The wall beside my desk I put up a montage of inspirational images. It was overdue for a freshen up, so for a couple of months I slipped anything that caught my eye into a folder (magazine cuttings, mail my friends sent me, vintage book pages etc etc) until I had enough material to redo the wall.
Here is the old inspiration wall:

I loved the old wall and love the new wall more. So wonderful – can’t wait to see it in the flesh.

Lovely! How do you use the wall as inspiration? To get you a the right mood, or do you use specific images as prompts, or c) other?

No, not as prompts so much, just as eye-candy to buoy me up and get me into a creative space… 🙂
