According to the internet, it's *national stationery week*. Whaaaaaaa?! Who even knew that was a thing? I didn't. But it's ok by me. Because I bloody love the stuff. The majority of my design work lately has been lovely stationery - more on that soon - and pinterest is just a constant source of gorgeous inspiration, I mean, look! Gaaaaagh! Just thought I'd share a few of my faves here... 

1 | I recently discovered Script Merchant, and their stunning typographic invites.
2 | A super sweet watercolour design by The Lovely Drawer. 
3 | I couldn't get over this invitation design when I first saw it. Completely incredible and insanely beautiful, by Belinda Love Lee. 
4 | Yay for floral typography. Beau-Tied, for Green Wedding Shoes. 
5 | Ok, I just love love this. It's so happy. It's by Suite Paperie. They have a lot of lovely stuff, 
6 | And a lovely illustrated design by Ryn Frank.

My pinterest feed is looking very festive at the moment, which is totally fine by me! Today I watched Frozen, drank mulled wine, went to the theatre, ate mince pies aaaand sang some carols. So I'm finally feeling pretty Christmassy. Bring on the snow. Nah, just joking. 

1 | This photo is crazy stunning. By Tanner Wendell Stewart. 
2 | Love these glass glitter stars in the Love Bex christmas shop. 
3 | Dreamy beautiful calligraphy by Moira Ink. Shoulda attempted this for all my christmas cards!
4 | The more I see of Luli Sanchez's work, the more I love it. Her designs and patterns are lush. 
5 | This East London home looks about the most perfect and magical place to spend christmas.
6 | I love glitter. Fa la la la laaaa la la la laaaa.

I studied art history at uni, I adore exhibitions and recently I've been super inspired by all things art. I just finished reading Seven Days in the Art World by Sarah Thornton. It's a brilliant book and an amazing insight into the art world, and it made me want to go to art school immediately! That probably won't happen any time soon, so in the meantime pinterest is a fantastic way of discovering new and inspiring artists...

1 | Satsuki shibuya's photo-synthesis series is seriously beautiful - I love following her work on her instagram feed. 
2 | I've been a huge fan of Katy Smail's paintings for a while now, and her entire portfolio is so super gorgeous and fun. 
3 | Wonderful, bright and fun paintings, (and an incredibly inspiring interview) by Ken Done. My Mum has a gorgeous painting by him at home and it is happiness. 
4 | I saw the Matisse exhibition at the Tate Modern at the start of September - it was mesmerising and so super inspiring, it made me want to get my papers and paint out straight away! I adored the colours and composition in this piece especially. 
5 | I completely adore Jenny Prinn's paintings. Her colour palettes are the best. 
6 | Britt Bass is an artist I discovered through pinterest. The colours and compositions in her paintings are swoon perfection and I bloody love them. Also, her iPhone cases are ace.

I feel like I'm being bombarded with inspiration at the moment, I've been away a lot recently, which I think is why - getting out and about and visiting new places is definitely the best way to inspire my creativity. But for rainy Sundays in London, there is always pinterest...

Pinterest is my fave, it's always been my fave. But when I was studying I used it so much for design inspiration and research that it sort of just became a big collection of design homework and I had little time for pinning everything else. It's been nice since I graduated to just use it to pin, collect and share all things that I think are wonderful and beautiful. Here are some things which I've pinned recently that I thought I'd share with you all...

1 | Lovely hand painted type by The Weaver House.
2 | 'My Daughter Kanna' by Japanese photographer Toyokazu Nagano. I cannot get over how adorable and hilarious this girl is. I want one.
3 | Talking of Japan, Claire & Dave's photos of their holiday there have been making me want to go back so much, times a million.
4 | Love this photo by Monica Moraru.
5 | I may have seven zillion of them already, but this striped tee from Zara looks pretty perfect.
6 | Love this branding inspiration moodboard by Cassie of The Veda House.

Maybe I'll make this a regular feature? Obviously I'd have to start blogging a bit more often to make it regular, ha... but you never know! You can follow me on pinterest here.
