As a designer, I am constantly looking for inspiration. I always mean to blog what I find, so that is what Thursday Things is all about!
I have been thinking of getting my woodshop on, and this blog: Knock Off Wood has inspired me to start building! The idea of having a piece in my house that I built with my hands excites me, and since I am always drooling over Pottery Barn catalogs, I might as well do it myself for cheaper! I think I will start with these:

The designs and colors inspire the heck out of me, and I can’t wait to get this project done!
So, what’s inspiring you this week?
