I have quite taken to writing this series on
the blog because I find it so much fun to write and I hope you have fun
checking out what I have discovered for you. It's been a while since I did one of these because I had to tackle examinations this month. That means pulling all nighters,
being tired and grumpy. Here’s what inspired me on the internet and really helped me get
through it. (I've also revamped the graphic a little, what do you think?)
1.Neon Signs – Tumblr
This amazing page on tumblr is something I found on accident
and what a fair bit of luck that was. This is a tumblr curated by an
anonymous(couldn’t find any contact information or media) fellow neon sign
enthusiast who posts bloody awesome neon signs from all over the world. It is
the perfect collection of aesthetically pleasing moody/dark images with
fun/bright quotes. They’re pretty to look at and have some great words(if
you’re a lover of words too you’ll know how I feel). The fun thing is sometimes
I search for a particular one that I liked and it leads me to learn about a
totally new restaurant or place I never knew existed and there goes another
name on my bucket list. Honestly, it’s just a pretty place to scroll through on
sleepless nights or anytime really and I think it’s quite inspiring and makes
me feel festive.
2.Papertown_papercut – Instagram
Bailu is a gorgeous artist from Australia who makes magnificent
works of art from paper and you won’t even believe your eyes when you see it
because it’s all handmade. She puts up a lot of videos of her work as well if
you want to know more about papercutting or how it’s done. It’s a complete work
of art and patience. How she carves out delicate patterns and details by hand
with a cutter (that you, me or any “human” uses to open boxes) is beyond me. I
believe she also has an etsy shop where she sells these designs and they’re so
pretty I feel she deserves all the attention and more. So go give her page a
look and be prepared to be in awe. Here's a link to her etsy shop !
