greatest hits & a GIVEAWAY: with pomlove

what inspires you artistically & creatively? what would those inspirations look like visually? in this fun series, (please see the others here) ... i’ve invited some wonderful artists to share with us 4 images of inspiration in their artistic life, something of an interview in images! the guidelines were basically this: choose 4 visuals (something like your creative-stimuli *greatest hits!*) that you feel most inspires & expresses your art or craft today. for some, it might be a person, place or thing; a material; a pattern; a colour; a sound or song, etc. it might be a photograph, a drawing, a scan, etc. i’ve tried to leave it a bit open-ended so that we might better glimpse into these artists' motivations and their amazing, raw talent! today i’m delighted to present the next in the series : greatest hits! with kirsten of PomLove!

i'm in love.
with warm summer nights.
with light & colour-play.
and with the delightful charm that is ethereal, floating, whimsical PomLove.

i just adore this shop.
the byline sums it up: " happy. floating. paper."

indeed!
filled with handmade poms in every colour, and for every occassion (although no -occassion needed, by the way!), i can think of 1001 wonderful spots that would be lightened, delighted and brightened by one of these gorgeous handmade PomLove paper poms!

a walk thru the shop helps me to breathe deeper, smile and day-dream!
wouldn't one be a perfect addition to any nursery, party, wedding, backyard, etc?
i think yes!

so i asked the creative wonderwoman behind PomLove to share with us 4 images that inspire her work! AND ... read on for how to enter the rikrak studio PomLove GIVEAWAY! yes - you can be the lucky soul who wins a set of 7 beautiful poms for your very own!! woohoo!

here are kirsten's images, and her own words, on what inspires her...

1. zinnias:
"because they are my favorite blooming thing,
and they gave me the inspiration for my pom work.

2. music:
"because without my playlist i would be tortured by monotony.
coldplay's viva la vida is one of my favorites."

3. my babies:
"because they are my entire life. i love you, zoe, neve & ewan."

4. laughter:
" because it makes me feel lighter, and thank god, because i hate diets.
