You inspire me. Thank you for that, and for visiting my page!

After many years in an office, I have been exploring my creative side for the last few years. My latest project is designing and making Art Deco handbags, which has been sidetracked a bit by my foray into Polyvore, which is so addictive! I am so inspired by all of you. I do support being original, and don't copy other people's sets - but at the same time, I feel that all art is collaborative to some degree. The trick is to take something and make it your own rather than to strictly imitate someone else. So I don't get upset if someone uses an idea I think is mine, or an item that is somewhat of a treasure to me - because, after all, we are all inspiring each other, and sometimes I do not even remember what I have seen or not seen. Yes, I am that old. LOL
