So I am leaving for warmer weather in the morning, and will be visiting some new places. When I visit new places one of my favorite things to do is to look around for inspiration for a new project or something I can bring home with me that will spark a creative idea. I tend to do a LOT of photography, and plan on picking up handmade items that each are a creation and a representation of that artist.
When you are looking for ideas to make your event a creative and unique, you have to be inspired. Whether that inspiration be the pattern of a fabric that you turn into a color scheme, a theme you carry throughout an event, the smallest detail in a table arrangement that becomes your centerpiece or a monogram on an invitation. Let your inspiration be what guides your ideas and sparks your creativity or vision moving forward.
I like to keep an "Inspiration" folder. I put a collection of pictures or items in the folder to refer back to when I am looking for an idea. I think this is something great for anyone to do, but especially great if you are planning a big event.
I would encourage you to start an inspiration folder if you are planning a special event, it will help you get a sense of your style and will certainly come in handy down the road. If you are planning an event that has many aspects to it, like a wedding, make multiple folders for each piece of the puzzle. That way, you can stay organized and keep your ideas for each piece of your special day flowing.
Lastly, remember to pay attention to the tiniest details around you...they may spark the biggest ideas!
