Inspirations for Art and Housekeeping

I said in my initial post that I would share some things that inspire me, so here's round one.
Although I have already mentioned the work of Jan Brett in my list of Holiday books the other day, I recommend feasting your eyes on her illustrations for The Owl and the Pussycat.
Another unmissably beautiful picture book is Princess Furball by Charlotte S. Huck.

Inspiration isn't just for arts or crafts. Baby Girl (aka Mama's Little Motivator) has been my inspiration for working on getting my house in order. Since I've gone back to work, I finished reorganizing my pantry shelves, and I set up a portable closet in our previously closetless master bedroom so we're not stuck hanging our clothes in the other closets around the house. After that my plan is to tackle my little craft room and to pull off baby's first Christmas. Baby Girl is cooing at me right now and giving me a big smile, saying "Mommy, its your day off, let's get to work!" So that's what we'll do.
