"That’s so cool!"
Ever say…..
"I think I can do that."

Whether a reader of blogs or a writer of them,
we all have the power to inspire others.

Thank you for the inspiration.
What’s inspiring you today?...
(All photos in this post belong to their respective blog owners.)
At the moment, you are inspiring me.
ReplyDeleteI just jotted down 2 pages worth of notes, about the same thing that you posted....inspiration through blogging! I was planning on posting mine tomorrow or next week. It's amazing what blogging has done for me AND my home! ;)
ReplyDeleteI can certainly say that your blog and pictures have inspired me, as well as the beginning of the new year. Like everyone, I have the itch of organizing, rearranging, and tweaking displays here and there....and while doing that I've been hit with 100's of other ideas along the way.
Here's to our inspirational dreams coming true!
I feel the same way. Every day I am inspired by something that I read or see on a blog. Your blog is one of my favorites. Lovely post.
ReplyDeleteLove this!
ReplyDeleteSo true and your choices are perfect! I have seen them before but now I am more inspired then ever. Grazie

That chair is to die for, and I love that chicken coop!
ReplyDeleteTwo of my favorites are on here, and now I have some new ones to visit. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteBeautifully written LaurieAnna ... I LOVE the pictures you chose : )
ReplyDeleteBlogs have become my "my" time to read and enjoy pretty things. I enjoy it so much...and always feel better after an hour of surfing in the afternoon. Thank you for being a part of that.
ReplyDeleteHow sweet is this post!
ReplyDeleteLove your inspiration pictures (and thanks for the one on mine!) and your message couldn't be more true.
Reading blogs in even one single day will give you more info for your internal card file than you'll ever know what to do with. Isn't it great?

ps All of my fur babies were rescued. My oldest kitty, Olivia, was rescued as a kitten (along with her siblings) from an abandoned house in MN. My brother, knowing I was mourning the loss of our aged childhood kitty, surprised me with Olivia when he came out to Wa for a visit back in 1998. Olivia's brother and sister are still living happily with my brother's sister-in-law, who rescued the bunch, back in MN. : )
It's about time! I'm your newest follower
ReplyDeleteCheers!
