Weekend Inspiration: No. 48

Weekend Inspiration: No. 48

Who else is ready for spring? I was looking back through old photos the other day, and happened to stumble upon these that I took last season with my friend, Bethany. Suffice to say, my reaction to them was instantaneous. I just can’t wait for fresh flowers, green leaves on the trees, and short-sleeve T-shirts to reemerge. What’s your favorite season?

While I may be looking ahead to warmer days to come, I still managed to pick up a whole bunch of creative inspiration looking backward across the week we just had. An Instagram bug that wreaked havoc on my feed actually inspired a bit of housekeeping over in that space, and I’m now following a bunch of new people. If you’re active on Instagram, I encourage you to refresh your following list because you never know what kinds of new ideas it’ll lead to. Evidence below of a few things I picked up on thanks to my own new and improved feed.

1. Studio DIY isn’t a new-to-me feed (I’ve been following along with Kelly for years) but her bathroom renovation reveal is definitely worth mentioning at the top of today’s list. That green tile is so good!

2. Again, this isn’t a new follow for me, but I’m still very into the multiple ways Studio McGee styled out the rooms in this new-build home.

3. I spotted someone wearing these pants on Instagram earlier this week, and now wonder if I could pull them off…

4. Not even thirty seconds after typing the line above this one, I got an email from Madewell saying that you can take an extra 30% off sale items, so now I’m contemplating this, too.

5. Here’s a new account I just started following this week that I can’t get enough of. The DIY wall treatment she finished in her hallway is absolutely mind-blowing.

6. I’m not really a big fan of Instagram ads, but one earlier this week did end up leading me over to World Market because they’re having a big sale through February 18. I ordered this in gray!

Question: what’s one project you’ve had in the back of your mind for ages that you’ve been dying to try out? I know you’ve got some sort of creative vision in there! I, for one, have dozens upon dozens of unfinished, not-even-begun DIY ideas racing through my brain at any given moment, but I’m happy to report that that list recently got one item shorter.

Case in point, my latest project for Hunker is something I’ve had on my list to make for years, and I finally had the motivation to bring it to life. Hop over to Hunker here to see the full step-by-step tutorial for my DIY Mod Kinetic Pipe Sculpture, including a linked shopping list to take even more of the guess work out of things.

I know I dub a lot (if not most) of my projects as “couldn’t be easier” to pull off, but I really, truly mean it this time. I was actually a little dumbfounded when I was able to wrap the whole thing up in one short afternoon. I remember setting the finished sculpture on the console in our living room, stepping back, and muttering a quick “Huh!” out of surprised satisfaction at the sight of it. Can you believe it’s made out of a couple of $3 pipes?!

Anyway, visit the Hunker website here for all the DIY details, and then I’d love for you to let me know about the project you’ve been aching to cross off your own list in the comments below.
