It's funny, most outsiders would never guess a big bustling Bronco would inspire anything remotely cute. But inspiration comes in many forms. If you break down anything that looks cool and think how could that color, texture, shape, or feel be applied to something else entirely, your mind will open up so far wide, you will never know how you lived a day without letting things inspire you.
So how does inspiration strike exactly? Well honestly it's when you are not thinking about your next creation or design or big idea at all. It actually creeps up on you when you are doing the most boring of boring tasks, stuck in your every day routine, or casually chatting with a friend. And then bam, out of nowhere it hits you like a pile of bricks. If you are lucky that inspiration strike will last until you need to get the idea out and flowing, whether its writing that next song, editing those next set of photos, or writing till your brain and heart stop feeling so full of excitement and delight.
A few months ago, my brother took me to a Bronco event in Santa Monica. All he had to say was Bronco and I was in . Living in Los Angeles, I would always spot Broncos closer to the beach. Whether it was on Pacific Coast Highway, driving through Santa Monica, or heading to Point Dume,Malibu. Broncos especially of the 1970s variety are pretty pricey, so when you do see them, they stand out. And if you are an avid fan like me, your eyes are wired to spot them that you start to recognize the same ones rolling by. When I went to the event, it was like all my dream cars decided to have a party in one place. They came in cool colors, awesome interiors, and their owners just exuded confidence. All of this ignited so much inspiration.
That seat interior is so cool, what if I could make a backpack out of it?
Or that color pallet is so pretty, it would be perfect on a cute wedges.
I was taking all the little details I loved so much on my favorite set of wheels and making it my own. When I went home, I started to flip through photos and sketch ideas and came up with the perfect accessories inspired by my favorite Broncos that day, take a look.
So if you are stuck in a rut, no inspiration flowing thru your veins,take a break. Start procrastinate cleaning, yes that's a thing, call a friend, or take an adventure small or big. Let your mind breathe and soon enough your thoughts will be like mine, constantly forming.
