Ahh you have wonderful ideas as well. We all do, just a bit of thinking and the creativity juices flow.
Honestly, I do searches on pinterest and google alot. I also save stuff from the Hometalk emails. I find the more I look at diy projects, the more I can come up with my own ideas or a spin on other's ideas. They are like a springboard for my own imagination.
I've been waiting to find the opportunity to say the same thing, Rgray..this place is phenomenal. Beats Google hands down..
I read design magazines, go on the internet to this site, DIY, Pinterest, etc. watch the DIY network on TV....that's just a few things I do.
I learn as much as possible abut decor, crafts and also got my Master Gardeners certification years ago.
I can't speak for anyone else but me, but I always believed that "necessity is the Mother of Invention!" Almost anything can be made useful and beautiful with a little thought and creativity. And it's amazing what you can come up with when you need or want something you either can't afford or think is WAY overpriced! What better motivation!
Amazing, I agree! Everyone has something they can offer the world and we seem to have SO MUCH imagination and creative ideas here at HomeTalk! A wonderful resource made better by people who contribute and share!
IT ALL TAKES LOTS OF DIFF. EXPERIENCES IN LIFE. SOME ARE FROM GRANDPARENTS AND PARENTS. , OR GOOD NEIGHBORS. PAY HEED TO SOME OF THE MATURE FOLKS, FOR THEY ARE FILLED TO OVERFLOWING WITH LOTS OF WISDOM, AND NOT MANY FOLKS REALIZE THIS. I AM SO THANKFUL THAT I HAD GOOD FOLKS AROUND ME, AND SHOWED ME THESE FACTS. BLESSINGS TO YOU, J.
There are a lot of us DIYers out there, each one has a different take on same things, thus the multitude of ideas! :)
