Welcome. I'm very excited to be participating today in SFGirlbyBay's blog it forward mashup. A wonderful exercise filled with wonderful people writing wonderful things. I wanted to congratulate Pretty {much} Art for a lovely post yesterday, and for passing me the pen, so to speak, today. If you are new to PureGreen, I'm very pleased to meet you, and I hope you find something inspiring here today, and perhaps stay awhile! PureGreen is traditionally about stylish green living - I own an eco building and design shop in Canada, so I am constantly looking for green inspiration. I am one of those people who is inspired by everything! It was really hard to narrow my choices down, so I appreciated this exercise as it helped me narrow my focus and really think about me. When was the last time you did that....? So, I slowed things down, opened my eyes, and here is what resulted. enjoy.
{i am inspired by starting anew...such as turning the first page of a new book, anticipating the first sip of hot cup of coffee, or even a fresh start on you calendar. life is filled with potential.}
{i get so unbelievable inspired when i look at any creative medium. a ball of yarn. a book of patterns. a stack of beautiful fabric. now, if only each project turned out like i'd imagined.}
{perhaps one of my favourite things to do is wander in nature. walking my dog rusty is a surefire way to get my juices flowing. a pen & paper are always nearby, as this is when i do my best thinking. the colours are always so vivid. this is where i feel at peace.}
images: in most light
{place i've been. places i want to go. by plane, car or train.}
{again, possibilities. i'm not afraid of getting my hands dirty, and there's nothing better than a carrot, fresh from the ground.}
{ever notice that in this day in age, we are hardly ever alone? every so often, this is something i need, to reconnect with myself, and get back to what inspires me.}
{to my love of recycling, i am so inspired when something unwanted is granted a new life. salvage. look for possibility.}
A most sincere thank you. Please visit r's adventures Monday for more!

ReplyDeleteThank you Katie*Belle for saying such nice things, and thank you for being my first comment! I feel lucky to have gotten the opportunity to share this. I hope you'll stop by again!
ReplyDeleteAll of the photos you've chosen are so beautiful! Thanks for sharing your inspirations with us!
ReplyDeletewhat a wonderful post, a blog after my own heart!
ReplyDeleteVery beautiful and thoughtful inspirations.
ReplyDeleteYour choices resonate with me especially the one about solitude. I really need that to recharge but somehow in this busy day and age, I forget it and find myself exhausted and out of touch with what I really need to recharge. Thanks so much!
ReplyDeleteThe photos of La Nature & Solitude are gorgeous - I can see why they are called in most light.
Thank you all for your lovely comments - you are the reason writing PureGreen can be so rewarding. I appreciate you all! I hope to see you again. Have a wonderful weekend!
