Often, when I least expect it, I get a flash of inspiration looking at everyday sorts of things. Empty oatmeal containers could be repurposed into a shoe holder and old stereo speakers make a good base for my printer, or what about that old pair of boots?
Likewise, when photographers look for that winning shot; it’s often a small transient thing that catches their eye and if they are lucky, they capture it with their camera lens.
Cooking, especially for children can be a creative outlet for you and them. You can make Mickey Mouse pancakes, happy face sandwiches, and did you see those cute little veggie sheep?
Even in dreary weather, there is the potential for beauty in downtown Toyko walking in the rain.
Finding that beauty, and inspiration can find its place in any situation if we only have the heart and the eyes to see what is out there.
