DIY Inspiration Board


    Today I am going to show you step by step how to make an inspiration board. I'm sure you've seen them on Pinterest or YouTube. An inspiration board is something that you put together to inspire you how ever you like. My favorite part is that it's so personal since you are picking what inspires you and what you want to look at. I have seen some really beautiful ones with fashion sketches on them but for me that doesn't work because it doesn't inspire me the same way. So now let's get started!
 
 
 


The first thing you need to do is get your supplies. You will need a cork square, push pins, scissors, and magazines.
 
 
Next go through the magazines and cut pictures and/or words that you want to display on your board.


Then organize how you want them to be pinned.

 
 
This is what my board looked like when I was done. For me I wanted some fitness motivation, bright lipsticks, food, of course, and two hilarious actors (Mindy Kaling and Melissa McCarthy). You can cover your board so you don't see any of the cork or you can leave some showing. I left some showing because I can add more to it when I find something I want to cut out and add.
 
 
The only thing left to do is find the perfect spot for your board. I put mine on my desk so I can be inspired while I work.


If you make one I would love to see what inspires you. Use the hashtag #letschatinspired and I will check it out on twitter and instagram! I'm going to go post mine now and I hope to see yours too!
