The secret to creativity is knowing how to hide your sources...

...but I can't help sharing!

I've fallen in love with Design Sponge, a blog that helps alleviate my boredom and inspires me to put a little more color and creativity into my apartment. And if I ever find free time (...what's that?) I may actually attempt some of these projects.

The first is a fun project to turn old botanical prints into more modern prints.

The second turns antique keys into art. I've seen this in a lot of design stores, blogs, etc. I admit, I've never collected old keys, although they are somehow inherently fascinating. What does this open? What does it lead to? A physical manifestation of Aladdin's "open sesame," if you will.
