What a wonderful post and inspirational way to journal. I used to make inspirational collages like this when I was younger, but they were large and on paper. I love this idea!!
SOOO pretty!!!
No but now I sure wish I did!
I keep a journal like this! I absolutely luv creating the pages in it!!! Its definitely relaxing :)
Few things are cooler than coming to a blog and being totally inspired by the first image.
Wow.
And while I don't really collect images that inspire in a book, I've used the walls of my room in a similar way.
Thank you so much for sharing!
I love inspiration notebooks. I actually keep a virtual one on my computer. It helps to save some trees and I have so much flexibility to let it grow...
I keep so many journals like this one. Art journals, quote journals, photography journals. I love how theraputic it actually is. This one is very impressive and magical!
i used to do it. i had one really big notebook with pages from books and photographs and song lyrics that used to inspire me. and i wrote many ideas.. not to forget them.
this is wonderful... <3
Does it count if I keep and hoard favorite magazines and Anthropologie catalogs, fully intending and planning on cutting them out and shadowboxing and framing them some time in my fashion-y future?

Beautiful ideas!
I love your notebooks they are so cool to look at. What a wonderful design you have made out of the pictures.
Blessings,
Heidi
These are really beautiful and inspiring. I don't have a book like that, but I do make an occasional collage. I might start a book now, though.
I have my art journal, which works as both an inspiration book and a diary in one. :) I wish it were as pretty as Thumbelina's though, I often browse through her flickr pages for instant inspiration...
Yes! it's what has now mutated into what I call a blog....
If only I could be so organized and create a collection of all my torn-out pieces of inspiration, it would be lovely.
i do. i wish it was as lovely as these. mine is tiny and quite full.
peace & love!
i never thought about making one before, but now i think i will start making one!
yup i have a big book full of images, scribbles, fabrics - and I look at it about once a week! x
I don't, but I wish I did!
I am inspired by notebooks, though. I have so many of them, I get inspired when buying notebooks! I don't know how to fill them all though... I just can't get myself to start writing in them... ;)
yep!And its a whole lot of fun and very useful:)

Yes, I do! I also keep *inspiration boxes* -- cutouts from mags, organized into labeled folders.
Your photos are just lovely!
Such lovely books of art ^^
I don't have an inspiration book but I do have an inspiration wall ;)
as always beautiful images.
i have a notebook i am never without which is choc full of ideas. ideas for poems. lines of favourite poems. artists i need to look up. and little sketches.
but my laptop is bursting with art and pictorial inspiration.
we need to capture what makes us grow.
i have started but mine isn't so gorgeous just yet
I have one that I put pictures of clothes and celebrity outfits that I like. It's a bit materialistic though, not beautiful like this.
wow, that's amazing. I especially like the third one, the colours so warm and <333
i dont have an inspiration notebook, but i keep a tumblr to post lovely photos and pictures that inspire me @ dreamcatcheris.tumblr.com
so pretty! well, i'm tempted to start now ;)
I have an inspiration 3 ring binder!! It amazes me that even years after I put a photo in it from a magazine I usually still love it for the very same reasons.
My inspirational notebook is this pocket-sized bordeaux-colored one which I carry with me everywhere in my handbag, such inspiring pictures Micaela, thanks so much for taking the time to read my blog, hope your day would be a bright and lovely one- keep in touch cherie!

Hmm, I do not keep an inspiration notebook but I'm beginning to think I should. To be honest, my tumblr account is like my inspiration notebook. I find so munch inspiration on tumblr. :)
Well, I have a notebook where I write almost everything. Songs, quotes, pieces of storys... and so on.
And I also have a folder where I save all the pictures I fall in love with.
Maybe I shoud mix them in an inspiration notebook...
This is really pretty! You saw some pages of my inspiration notebook, so yes, I keep one. :) Thanks for your comment! Do you keep one yourself?
Beautifullll!
Love Thumbelina's style in every way.
I do keep an inspiration notebook and i love to cut and paste in it!
I am planning to do a post about it, next week i guess.
xx
Lovely images... This gets me excited to sart my own inspiration notebook!
Good idea. Those pics are beautiful. The inspiration notebook is art in itself though.
These journals are awesome. I keep a journal myself and a few pieces of collage made out of ripped fashion mags. And the pictures here are great!
Thanks for your message via twitter. I really like your blog. ;)
Oooh, yes I do! I love collecting little pieces of inspiration and pasting them in my Lacey Journal.
These photos are beautiful! <3
I certainly use to cover my walls in a very similar way.
Unfortunately after i moved that had to stop, but now i've seen this gorgeous post i might make a journal instead!
I'm posting a link to this entry on my blog. Check it out if you want to. :)
well, i certaintly am inspired to make one now!!
Oh I have all of that scattered then try and put in a bin or folder but they get forgotten...don't know why I never thought to do a sort of notebook collage! Yay! New project!
