Mothernature is a profound and prolific resource for design inspiration. All you have to do is walk outside and be open to the possibilities that she brings.

Grab a camera and let your imagine soar. Look for sunrises, sunsets, shapes colors, textures, and patterns. Look for variations in colors between rocks and soil, lakes, rivers and beaches.

2. Create a collage from photos you’ve taken, or enlarge your favorite, to create a unique and original focal point.

3. Collect small pebbles or rocks (scrub them clean)to place in a shallow bowl, then add candles for an organic tabletop accessory.  You can also hot glue them to a photo frame to create textural and visual interest.rock picture frame

4. Collect driftwood from fallen branches to create a show stopping art project like this one
