It’s dark, it’s cold, and I’m doing everything I can to stay inspired and lift my mood. I know winter is good in a lot of ways, but January hits hard! Can you relate? I have endless home projects on my to-do list, but I’m just not feeling motivated quite yet. A little scroll through our Instagram saves (my happy place on an app that quite honestly stresses me out much of the time) helps a bit. Not only do we save objects and art from makers everyday, but I noticed how often we save their art studio ideas too… They can be just as inspiring as the finished product for us.
Beauty is so important to feeling joyful and inspired. Whether it’s adding flowers to your table or hanging a pinboard of magazine cut-outs, there are many ways to boost your space. Even if, like mine, it’s not a full-on art studio, but more of a crafty little nook. Here are the ones inspiring us as of late!

PS Shoutout to any dear friends who happened to read both of our blogs this week (here and eco club), and consequently have heard us talk about our Instagram saves on three different occasions. Clearly we’re spending a lot of time indoors at the moment…
