2011 inspiration board

January 11, 2011

As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.

In another life- one minus the babies and dental school- Adam and I entirely renovated a hundred year old house. We tiled and completely remodeled the kitchen and several bathrooms and refinished (original) wood flooring and painted more walls than I care to remember.

I still have a door that we pulled out of that house and occasionally use it as a backdrop for party favors (or cocktails and mocktails ballots).

I love our history with this door. And I love. love. LOVE what it has become- a door-turned-inspiration board that now resides in my craft room.

Seriously, I’ve never been so excited to find things to “Make,” and “See,” and “Write.”

And I love having magnets and clips (and the round inspiration boards!) for all of my clippings and never-ending lists.

And Burke LOVES having his own special spot on the board- two whole panels of chalkboard space and his own blue clip for showcasing his ‘artwork.’

We’re just ten days in, but I am loving 2011.

    We too renovated a 100+ year old house long ago – – such character in those!

    That door is on my "adore" list. I want it. May need to make my own version. Thanks for sharing!

    Super cute! We have an old bathroom with a seen-better-days door that I love. I hope this can be it's next reincarnation. Could you post pictures of using the door for party favors and other previous incarnations? Also, dumb question, but how did you attach the circle pin-board to the door? Thanks!

    Sorry for the dumb questions yesterday… so much for blogging while home sick from work. 🙁 I'm still a little head cold-ish…how did you attach the round inspiration boards to the door? Thanks much.
