I usually look for inspiration online on blogs. Quite often I don’t have to look for the inpiration though as it just pops out at me from all the wonderful blogs. :)

Darlene says
My biggest source of inspiration anymore is Pinterest and the many blogs I subscribe to. I also read several magazines, but told my husband not to renew my subscriptions because I’ve already seen all the ideas they give on Pinterest. I am currently redoing my kitchen in a vintage red & aqua theme (95% of the ideas came from Pinterest), and that sketchy bicycle dish towel would be perfect for my kitchen :)

For most inspiration, I go to blogs and Pinterest. I also love linky parties.

Yay Bev! I want my own sketchy tea towel!
I am all over the web for crafty inspiration. Pinterest guides me around the best blogs (such as Flamingo Toes – yes, I am sucking up, but it is true still). Etsy is another source of creative inspiration, both supplies and crafty goods.
Now if I could just find an online source for MOTIVATION in addition to inspiration, I would be rockin’!

I use them all, but I am more inspired by projects from blogs I follow, because 1) I already like the blogger’s style, or I wouldn’t follow them, and 2) there’s generally going to be more photos, more closeups, and sometimes even awesome, step-by-step tutorials, written by people you can actually e-mail a question to, and get an answer back!
