  1. I was inspired tonight by my husband and my son! We went to help out at a Childhood Cancer Research Fundraiser – St. Baldricks -tonight and both my boys gave up their hair to help raise money to find a cure! I love my boys!!! My son’s hair just grew back in after losing it to his chemo treatments! What an inspiration!

  2. I am looking for inspiration for a sisters vacation. I have three sisters we live all over the US and are looking for a place to vacation in the spring together. Any ideas!!??

  3. i dont know how i came across your blog but its so inslpiring and beautiful i love everthing you create. i will add you to my favorites and check you out frequently now….

  4. I find myself sitting with a notebook, jotting down notes. The only problem is I am a procrastinator and I spend half my life putting off something that would be awesome…if I would only DO it!
    Thanks for sharing your inspiration process.

  5. What a B.E.A.U.T.I.F.U.L. post! Coffee, is a MUST. Love the line “take a good look at the box. then think outside of it.” Thank you for being such an INSPIRATION! 😉

  6. Thank you for reminding me to sit quiet and allow inspiration to come. Prayer allows inspiration to permeate. God talks to me in the stillness. I need to turn off the distractions and sit with Him to be truly inspired.

    Lisa, You make me want to be a photographer. Right now, I just use a camera. So, not the same thing.

  7. Whenever I am stuck for inspiration, I usually go outside. It helps to hear the wind, the birds, do a little walking, etc. Other times, I try to forget about coming up with an idea and read something by someone I find inspiring, which is sometimes other blogs, or books. Love your photographs, they are gorgeous.

  8. Thank you for this post! I really needed to read it today. Your blog is fantastic! And I love your jewelry, especially the new banner cuff! Adorable!
