INSPIRE - a splash of color on your wall
STORAGE IDEA  m a s o n   j a r  &  t h r e a d

THE POSTER: Life is sweet and wholesome and gritty and silly and fun and spontaneous so that's the way I wanted my inspiration board to look like. THE JAR: Color makes my heart sing and pretty things make me want to dance so when I created the little jar stuffed with threads my heart was singing and I was (sort of) dancing.  Have a go?

GATHER
magazine scraps
pinterest art inspiration
shells 
paper
watercolour
ribbon 
embroidery thread 
yarn 
etc.

CREATE
watercolour little cards of paper and create a collage.
fill a mason jar with all your ribbons and threads - enjoy the dancing waves of colour.

  1. Last night Morgan and I hung a bulletin board up over our desk... and we've been wondering which way to go about decorating it. And this morning I see this beautifully written post, show Morgan, and we're both like "yup- do it like Acacia."

    Your blog. I don't know how you do it, but you ALWAYS say or do what I want to say or do. And it's inspiring.

    Love you
    xos!

  3. i am slowly but surely covering my walls with photographs and magazine clippings, and bits n' pieces of artwork my friends send me are usually on display on a bit of twine i have over my bed. twine, washi tape, and every other odd n' ends end up in mason jars sooner or later {or tea cups in need of a saucer ;)}.

    i second gabby's comment. everything you post is always so inspiring and such a breath of fresh air. love you lots sweet friend. xx
