Inspiration Kits

One of my favorite creative activities is putting together inspiration kits from my vast stash of vintage goodies. Many times they are simply items which fit a particular color scheme but sometimes they have a unifying theme. Anything goes when it comes to the sorts of elements I will include: Ribbons, buttons, beads, quotes, game pieces, small toys, vintage jewelry pieces, fabric remnants and trims - all of these have been included in kits in the past. Most are gathered into a vintage-style tin or jewelry box while others are a collection of collage elements which are easily stored in a file folder for future reference. I hope you will try your hand at making your own inspiration kits the next time you need a creative boost :) If you feel inspired by mine, stop by my Etsy shop, CarawayCache, to see these and more!
