from the inspiration folder

While I'm busy working on this interview project, here are a few things from my inspiration folder that caught my eye lately.

Tilt-Shift Photography Inspiration

I love tilt shift photography, it makes everything cute and little, like little toy towns and people we used to play with as kids. I have a camera app on my phone that includes the tilt-shift effect and I'm so excited to play with it. If the weather warms up tomorrow maybe I'll walk around campus and see if I can't get some cool shots. Here are a few of my very favorite examples of tilt shift photography.

Spring Fabric Inspiration

I made it through Target today without buying anything NOT on my list, but once I get into a fabric store, it's over. Hello, my name is Elizabeth, and I am a fabric addict. I went to exchange some scissors I'd been given as a gift (yes, I requested new Gingher scissors for Christmas.... who's a nerd? Right here.) and to get some muslin fabrics for school.

I did need to get some lace and salmon colored chiffon or jersey for a personal project, but of course I found several other pretty little things that I couldn't resist. I fell head over heels for this light blue chiffon with a gold foil polka dot. Summer dresses and skirts, here I come.
