Sunday Inspiration

Lately I've had the urge to paint the walls and redecorate my house.  I've also been on a small organizing kick. Believe me I need all the help I can get in that department. I love the idea of being organized, but I will be the first to admit it is not a skill that comes naturally to me. Where do you look for fresh ideas and inspiration?  There are a few blogs that I have been following for quite some time that always seem to scratch that itch for creative inspiration when it comes to giving your house a little TLC.

I thought I would share some of my favorites this morning--who knows, maybe some of these blogs could be featured in an upcoming Sunday Sip! 

Young House Love - You can read all about Sherry and John here.  I just love their blog. It is chalk full of beautiful ideas. I love watching the rooms in their home transform into something unique and special. I love that they give us the real DIY story: failures and successes. We get to see projects from start to almost finished to finished. And I love how their adorable little girl and sweet little pup can be spotted everywhere. John and Sherry blog and work on projects together and they are funny too! 

Design Seeds - Color Color and More Color. Each post is perfectly pinnable. It"s simply a blog for people who love color. If you are looking for a fresh new color scheme,  look no further than Design Seeds. Its really helpful for visualizing how a room might come together with fresh colors you may not have thought to put together. 

This is the "seed" that has inspired our current Master Bedroom/Bathroom update:


I heart: I Heart Organizing. Jen has got that little something. She makes organizing look so effortless--truly a gift!  I love that she can take a small space and find a place for everything!  You have to check out this closet makeover.  Truly inspiring right? But she's just getting started with the closets. You can find tons of great stuff on her blog: from printables to keep you on track to simple tricks to keep kitchen drawers organized. You won't believe the projects that abound! 

Sometimes when I don't have the time or energy to tackle something big I head over to Home Sanctuary and join up the the "Company Girls" to take a look at the latest Small Thing. Rachel blogs thoughtfully about ways that she transforms her home and life with the little things. She gives us one small task a day to bring order, breath life, and create sanctuary in our homes all while creating a sense that we are all in it together!

Well, now that I'm inspired anew by my old favorites I hope that you will share with me where you find your inspiration. Have any of your faves made my short list? Share yours in the comments!

Have an inspired Sunday!
