Ethereal Lavenders

October 7th, 2009 @ 2:28 pm by Wiley Valentine

This kind of sums up my feeling today. I adore soft shades of purple mixed with deep aubergine tones. This inspiration board evokes the perfect ethereal quality I adore… a beautiful cherry blossom lined path, ballet inspired couture pumps, parisian macaroons, and natural fruit infused drinks.

Magical Forest

October 6th, 2009 @ 10:31 am by Wiley Valentine

I never tire of the “enchanted forests filled with fairies” look for a wedding or event. I absolutely adore this vibe! So earthy, yet magical, whimsical, and chic all at the same time!

About Kristy @ Momental Designs

Last week, I posted an interesting question on Twitter. Certainly not a question that has never been asked before, but an interesting one just the same. The question was simple - “what makes you feel most alive in your work?” I immediately thought of the question I am asked so often - “what inspires you”? I think this is an important question we should all ask ourselves, regardless of our professions, don’t you think?

I put together a few images from the past few weeks that made me stop and say wow. Obviously pattern is an affinity of mine, saturated color, yes, but also the concept of contrast. The bull posing in front of the fussy wallpaper is a good example of my obsession with contrasts.

The gorgeous headboard below motivated this invitation design recently.

So, what inspires you; makes you feel most alive?

I stumbled upon this website while reading one of my favorite blogs, Unruly ThingsSamantha Robinson is a porcelain artist whose website is one of the most innovative I have seen in some time. I just adore the pencil-sketchy-casual feel with pops of unexpected color.

Packaging Crush {Talenti}

September 17th, 2009 @ 10:30 am by Wiley Valentine

Ok so while visiting my parents in Park City the other day, I stumbled across this absolutely perfect packaging in their freezer and I was jumping up and down I was so excited. The packaging is for this all natural, amazing gelato called Talenti. The packaging reminds me of a lush body scrub, however it holds actual gelato! How fun! Some of the fabulous flavors include Caramel Cookie Crunch, Argentine Dulce de Leche, and Old World Eggnog. See for yourself…
