Inspiration comes from anywhere and everywhere!. I've seen so many beautiful inspiration boards, in blogs and in magazines. I wanted one of my own, so the other day, I went over to my trusty Target store and bought one. The only problem...it was black!. I do love black, but I don't want black in my happy-go-lucky craftroom!. So I decided a little paint here and there never hurt anything or anyone!, or has it?
The black beast:
I sanded it well, painted two coats of primer on:
A couple of coats of pink acrylic paint:
The pink beauty:
But that wasn't enough for my board, I had to pretty it up some more. I found a wooden applique, and a few wooden knobs:
Selected a few colors that would complement the pink ,and here they are:
A few dabs of glue here and there:
I added a few items to it so you can see the final result!
The gilded lily:
I'll be adding other items to it, I'm inspired by so many things and so many people!
INSPIRE ME!
