These swatches are from skirts that I no longer wear. A year ago, they were stuffed in a drawer at my desk for 'inspiration.' Just re-discovered them - lotta good they did me in the drawer! I enjoy the patterns and color combos so I scanned them and stuck the printouts in an inspiration binder. Now I can take the skirts to Good Will.
How do you keep track of inspiration clips? I have way too much to keep on a board, and I actually don't enjoy looking at it all this stuff all time b/c I need a clean slate and no overt predispositions when I start creating a design. The binder idea is space-efficient, but then I forget to look at it entirely! Need a happy medium...
