Create a DIY Inspiration Board

April 12, 20252 min read

Do you ever find yourself looking for a burst of creativity but aren’t sure where to start? Designing an inspiration board might just be the perfect project!

It’s a simple, fun, and effective way to get those creative juices flowing. Let’s create a cozy corner where ideas can blossom.


Why an Inspiration Board?

Inspiration boards are more than just pretty displays. They’re like a launchpad for your imagination. By gathering pieces that speak to you, it becomes a visual representation of your dreams, goals, and ideas.

Plus, it adds a personal touch to your space, making it more inviting and uniquely yours!


Gather Your Materials

Before you get started, gather up your materials. Don’t worry—you probably have many of these items at home already:

  • A cork board, magnetic board, or canvas

  • Push pins, magnets, or clips

  • Scissors

  • Magazines, postcards, photos, or any paper that inspires you

  • Fabric or wrapping paper to cover the board (optional)


Arrange Your Inspirations

Start by cutting out images, quotes, or colors that catch your eye. These can be anything from magazine clippings, cherished photos, or snippets of poetry.

As you arrange them on your board, don’t stress about perfection. The goal is to express your creativity and what feels right in the moment.


Make It Cozy

To add an extra cozy feel, consider using fabric to cover your board, attaching string lights around it, or even adding small plants on a nearby shelf.

These personal tweaks can make your inspiration board feel more like a part of your home.


Switch It Up

As your interests and goals change, so can your inspiration board. Leave some space for new ideas and switch out images regularly.

This keeps your board fresh and continues to motivate you as you explore new creative paths.

MEET THE AUTHOR,
STEPH BLAKE

For years, I poured everything into building my business and raising my family—until I realized I lost a part of myself in the process.

I used to be deeply creative, finding joy in designing, making, and exploring new ideas.

But as life got busier, that creativity took a backseat to client work, to-do lists, and the daily demands of running a business and being a mom.

One day, I decided to slowly start creating again—just for myself.

I explored new hobbies to get a quick dopamine hit for my ADHD brain with no expectations or pressure. And everything changed.

Tapping back into creativity became a form of self-care, a reset button, and a way to feel connected to myself!

Now, through Create & Escape™, I help others rediscover that same creative freedom!
