3 ways to find inspiration

One of my resolutions for 2013 was to be more creative and create more. However, that can be a bit hard to do when you can't find anything that inspires you to actually want to create something. And for you, my lovely readers, I've put together a little list of my top 3 tips to help you battle that creative block and find inspiration:

Take a day trip.
You don't know how much it will do for you if you get out of the house and do something! My favorite places to go are: the library, a thrift shop, a charming little town nearby, or even to an art museum. Doing things and taking in new sights really helps propel you in your creative process and gets that brainstorming where you want it!

Scribble things down.
You heard me. Carry a little notebook with you everywhere and jot down fleeting inspiration. Get those creative juices flowing and sketch a flower on the sidewalk. It's amazing what you'll find inspires you. Little moleskines like this one are my favorites!

Live in the moment.
Take a seat at the park and watch the day go by. Feed the pigeons. Instead of hurrying from one task to another, really put thought into each one and take your time. You only live life once :)

xoxo,
Nat

  4. Being present and living in the moment is one of my big resolutions for 2013. We don't really realize just how hard of a mental process this is!! But I think it's a very important one. And I also keep a notebook in my purse at all times ^.^ Great list!
