[bi-weekly inspiration kickstart]

I LOVE the library.... ever since i was a little girl, and there were not the multitude of local libraries around, I love going into the central library, down the musty smelling corridors, to read books over in the tiny tiny children section. Our children do not know how lucky they are! There is now a local library in each little precinct, all with their own "specialty" sections. We have our favorite branches and the kids have as much fun choosing out their books for the week as I do! I totally remember the entire "mr men" collection from my younger years and now my own children are enjoying the same series. So, i was overjoyed to find that the nearest branch from our place now has a huge collection of Architecture and Design books. I have been meaning to read this book - Midwest Modern by Amy Butler for the longest time, and finally checked it out today. (much happiness!) :)
So much inspiration for the new home! Amongst them:

Art display along the living room / dining room wall....
Love the floor boards! so much character!!!
Studio / office space... drool.... I love the plywood walls, i think we NEED a pinup wall for sure!A little completed piece of sewing in a long while - guess what it is? (only singaporeans would know actually - hint - it's something for drivers!)
