An impromptu trip to a localaAntique market last month was all I needed to get inspired.  I must admit settling on a color palette has been difficult for me. Wandering around the Antique Center, I was repeatedly drawn to the vintage tablecloths in so many of the booths. Picking up a simple piece with light orange and yellow roses, worn from use and frayed a bit on the edges, I was immediately drawn in. At that moment I knew the search for our perfect color palette was over and boy was I lucky The Hubby agreed!

From there I found a few Depression Glass pieces I hope to use as centerpieces, reminding me so much of the lovelies in my mother’s china closet I marveled at as a child.

During the stationery design process I always encourage my clients to find inspiration in uncommon places. A cherished card kept in a memory box for years, a simple dinner plate loved for its pattern or a field full of wildflowers growing along the interstate. In my experience, it is a heightened awareness of those items you surround yourself with most often that can inspire with most meaning and passion.

What seemingly mundane items have inspired your planning process?
