Birds and other nature-inspired prints and elements adorn the inspiration board in the study. "This is where I blog and do deco projects," Iris says. "I just love bringing the outdoors indoors, so in our entire house you will find birds and other animals, as well as many flowers and nature-inspired styling."
The left-brained creative type tends to start with the pieces and work up to a whole. They are the analytical types who create incredibly detailed, geometrically exact designs. When I look at this design board, I see someone who worked added pieces to the inspiration board until it was a complete picture from start to finish. I see pieces that fit together perfectly, like a puzzle, and a perfectly united color scheme.

not this one, but like the idea of a bulletin board and shelf space for things that i need to remember to do or read or follow-up, a small white board space for to-do list would be good too; or better a To-Do space for individual stickies so i don't have to rewrite items that stay on a list for a long time
