Dedicate a creative space:
The reason why intentionally creating a space to create is so important, is that you are literally a making room for inspiration, thoughts and ideas to to flow. Ben and I have made the guestroom our space to study, be creative and work. I find that when I separate myself from the rest of the house and all the noise, my thoughts are clearer and I am way more productive! It is very effective.
Stay Inspired:
One simple way to do this is surround yourself with creative people. I do this personally by following a lot of different fashion blogs. That always gets the creative juices flowing for me. I love seeing how other people create content, how they style pieces, how they photograph, how they choose locations…it all gives me ideas on how I want to do things next and how I can personally improve.
Change the format and join forces:
Step out of your comfort zone – take time for stillness:
Study as much as you practice:

I like your idea of dedicating a creative space. I tend to focus on creative things when I am out for a walk taking pictures or painting at a painting party place. It’s time to set up my own studio. It will give me a place to share with friends.
I stay inspired from watching cooking shows. My blog is vegan, so I like to veganize recipes. I also paint, so it helps me to visit art galleries. I get inspired every single time.
Love these great tips, Ruthie! Perfectly timed for me. Very inspiring! XO
