Insta-inspiration

Earlier today I tweeted:

It’s true: such a silly little thing thing really can brighten my day. Many of the people I follow on Instagram manage to make their daily meals look like art — just with good lighting, fresh ingredients, and smart composition/framing. Their photos inspire me to eat better, and to appreciate the “mundane beauty” in my life.

Since we’re already talking about fabulous photography, here are a few more Instagrammers I adore:

Dogs, doors, dancers, darling children, and… woodworking. (Okay, I couldn’t make a D out of that one.) It’s amazing what people do out there. Amazing how they see and share their worlds.

By the way, I updated my hand-drawn social media icons to include a link to my own Instagram account, and to show the Twitter bird instead of the “t” (which looked too similar to the Tumblr logo). The new icon line-up makes me so happy! Is it weird how much little details like that can please me?

    I’m forever in awe of other people’s instagram accounts! Though, it is a little dangerous. Sometimes it just makes me hungry hehe

      I know what you mean, hahaha! Your pics are always making me want to be crafty too. But I don’t have the skill for it that you do!
