Style Scouting: Vol. 204
Thanks for stopping by for this week’s Style Scouting. My Sunday post where I share the random stuff that captured my attention or inspired me that I found online.
Have you been watching the Olympics this week? I have and seeing the athlete’s speed, skills, determination and focus to be the best is amazing to watch. They are superhumans that show when you put your mind to it, great things can happen.
I am not an athlete aiming to win a gold medal, but they are still inspiring me to strive to do my best in what I am good at which is creating and coming up with decorating ideas to share with you. :-)
This week I also found that taking a break from projects over the last few months has been a good thing as I am getting excited about the fall. My brain is on overdrive with fall decor ideas and more that I am looking forward to sharing with you.
For now though, here is what I found inspiring around the web this past week.
