Tiptoe through the Tulips

I took a picture of these tulips while I was on vacation in Colorado...they were planted all over the outside mall on Pearl Street.

I loved the colors and how they just sang spring. Since I live in Florida and there's no way they would survive this heat (and the fact that I kill every plant that I lay a finger on) , I might just have to settle on this fabric to remind me of springtime...

spring has sprung

Spring
n. the first stage and freshest period.

Spring is known for the feeling of renewal it invokes and how all things feel possible in this season of new beginnings. I am feeling very inspired and ready to make a change. One of the changes is to start my own design firm. When I started researching ideas for the firm, I came across all these fabulous design blogs. A whole new world opened up for me! There are some very talented designers out there and I have to thank the blogs for opening up my eyes to it all. Now in addition to all the magazines I get, I have to add to my daily must-reads all the great design blogs ;)

I am starting my own blog as a way to post all the inspiring things that I come across on a daily basis as well as musings I might have about design related topics. I can only hope that my blog becomes an inspiration for someone else in the same way others have become for me.

I would like to extend a very special thanks to Jenny from Little Green Notebook and Christi from Charm Home for giving me some great advice!!
