Friday Link Love (and an Inspired Creations Video!)

Hello hello and happy Friday, friends! I am so excited for the weekend, how about you? This week has flown by but I’m feeling a little low on energy so I am going to sneak out of the office a bit early today. I am really looking forward to kicking back and relaxing this weekend. Before I bid you adieu though, I have to share this incredible video from Ambient Sky Couture Imagery shot on location at the shoot for the first Inspired Creations newsletter, which officially launched earlier this week. The shoot was art directed and photographed by the incredible Sara Gray who was the grand prize winner of our first Inspired Creations contest. (Remember this?) Sara blew us away with her vision for our special newsletter and the reader response has been tremendous so be sure to sign up in the sidebar if you haven’t already! In the meantime, here’s a look behind the scenes at this incredible editorial shoot…

The following Portland, Oregon vendors contributed to the Inspired Creations newsletter –

The Party Place

Of course the week isn’t complete without a little link love…

With the holidays coming up, this is a great idea for kids.

Tasty pie in a jar treats.

I want all of these.

It’s not too early to think about a pretty advent calendar.

Lovely lovely DIY gift wrap ideas.

A little inspiration for your weekend.

These have Thanksgiving written all over them.

Obsessed with this new feature on a favorite blog.
