Inspiration Board #2

While reading one of my favorite blogs, I decided to participate to her Inspiration Linky Party again! Anyone can do it and I think it's fun!!

These are the things I chose as my inspiration this time:

1. ITALY. I found this gorgeous picture of Rome showing the Tevere river and St. Peter's Cathedral in the background. How I would love to take a walk there right now!! All my brothers and sisters live in the Eternal City. Of course, anything Italian inspires me.. it's my blood... it's ME!! :)
2. PRETTY FABRICS. Any type of colorful and pretty fabrics makes me want to work and create something new! Every time I go in a fabric store I become dizzy from the beautiful colors I see all around me... I just love fabrics.
3. NAIL POLISH. If I didn't have to wash dishes everyday I would wear nail polish all the time. :) I cannot afford to go to a manicure (it would be nice...), so I paint my nails the best I can, but the dish-soap and all the different detergents wash it off almost right away. :( When I was younger I used to have my nails painted with different colors.. pink, red and sometimes even green or blue! :) Anyway, I like to see my nails painted, especially when I crochet!
4. THE BEATLES. I love listening to them whatever I do. I started learning English thanks to them {and my Mom's patience, as she already knew English perfectly as well as all their songs} 21 years ago!! It was my first year of High School, I didn't know any English at all... I fell in love with their music and since then I never stopped singing their songs... ♥

I think that's it for now!! Let me know what you think!!! :)

My Inspiration Board

Today I decided to participate to an "Inspiration Linky Party"...! The invitation came from "DondaLee's", one of my favorite blogs! Anyone can participate, we are simply sharing what are the things that inspire us the most and pin them on a virtual inspiration board. These are some of mine:

1. My morning Coffee. I cannot live without my caffe'latte* in the morning {*strong Italian espresso mixed with hot milk and sugar}, I've always had it.. it gives me all the energy I need and it's my moment of comfort and reflection, just me and my big mug. :)
2. Nature, especially flowers. I'm so blessed, I live in a tiny house surrounded by a huge yard, with grass, flowers, trees, vegetables, fruit... under the big blue sky of California! I have the whole of Nature at my house! It inspires me everyday.
3. Among the creatures of Nature..the one that I love the most is the Ladybug {or Ladybird...it depends if she lives in England or USA}. :) I find myself, almost everyday, telling my children...especially the boys...to be nice to the pretty ladybugs. ♥ You can find ladybugs all over my yard and my shop.
4. The color PINK and everything that is Princess looking, glittery, elegant and beautiful. 
5. Colorful Ribbons! I can never have enough!! I like especially the silky ones.. my Grandma used to collect them.. they make me think of her, and they are just so pretty! I use them for anything..

There is many other things that give me inspiration, I guess these were the first that came in mind. It would be nice to see also what inspires you!! Just leave a link in one of the comments or go visit DondaLee's beautiful blog!! She is also a big inspiration!!
