IntroductionHi, I’m Ellen. There are many things that inspire me to create and I love the challenge of learning something new. As a designer, I love the unexpected and find patterns too structured. But my love of heirlooms and antiquities keep me traditional. This blog journals my creativity and the inspirations that I find in everyday life as a mom in a small Florida town. I hope that I can inspire you too!
InterestsBeading, Quilting, Knitting, Scrapbooking, Dollmaking-- you name it! Just as long as it keeps me busy. I also enjoy Bonfires, Vegetable gardening, Perusing antique shops, gift shops, fleamarkets and yard sales. Looking at model homes although I dont do this too often. I love all things old and treasure heirlooms.
Favorite moviesI really like period pieces especially when they have full on regalia costumes. They are terrific for inspiration. Otherwise I enjoy movies that have good cinematography showing location shots and architecture of a country or region.
Favorite musicI listen to all genre of music depending on my mood and on what I'm doing. My "whitenoise" music is typically classical jazz or lounge but when I clean it's got to be the latest pop hits-- and I have to play it LOUD! In my car I usually have on a good salsa playing but when I want to sing (all windows closed) I put on a good country tune!
Favorite booksI enjoy a good mystery and try to keep up with the recent bestsellers. However. I really love books by Jean Auel,Ayn Rand, and Tolkien. One of my most favorite authors is Paulo Coelho (in English)and of course, Dr. Seuss! ;oP My all time favorite book is The Lorax.
