Random blog title, eh? Oh well, maybe it got your attention. This post is about YOU, readers. I recently asked on Twitter, “What do you want me to blog about??” I got a lot of response but I thought I should ask the same question here on my actual blog. Above are two examples of what inspires me when I’m reading through my Google Reader. The top image (from Decade) is an absolutely lovely way to display detail. The bottom image (from Oh Joy!) is a great way to feature guest spotlights.

So let me know! What do you want to see on this blog? What kind of posts have you enjoyed in the past? I have a lot of ideas myself but as my readership grows…I want to grow with you!

Just an FYI, coming up this week (in no particular order):

• 30 Day Photo Challenge official guidelines and a handy dandy uploader here on my blog!
• Etsy shop update with new prints
• Daily Occurrences

Today’s challenge was to draw your inspiration. Mine is a bit abstract and encompasses a lot. What inspires me? Life, the sun, organic relationships, nature, others that are real and not fake. The list could go on but I thought it was best displayed this way.

Steven drew old Nicktoons!

Benji drew Michael Bolton. Well, played sir.

And Carley chose various things as well in the form of type! Love it.

Be sure to comment with a link to YOUR blog if you participated. Tomorrow’s challenge is to draw your favorite plant! If you want yours included in my post, email me your drawing to hi@allisonlehman.com by midnight tonight.

I like the above statement. Sometimes you just have to go slowly…without stopping.

Things I’ve been loving lately:

1. mmminimal.

4. This blog.

5. This home.

This Monday Link Love is dedicated to my dream house. I’m assuming that it exists somewhere since I would have no desire to build a house of my own. So, here’s to you housey.

- I’m not sure when wallpaper got cool again but I jumped on board. I love the first image in this post. Great pattern and contrast.

- Yes, actually my dream house could very well be a tree house.

- Holy bed, chandelier and wood galore. I love it.

- A great resource I stumbled upon with lots of great photos of rooms, layouts, and inspiration. The featured photo in this post was found there.

- Are you on Pinterest? If so, follow this LIVING board.

- I like the way these photos are arranged.

ENJOY!

- The photo above was taken by Kellyn. I talk about her a lot. And she’s blogging more! Subscribe!

- Rubber stamp business cards! I love it. I also love that you could change the color of the ink whenever you wanted!

- I love this post about being busy vs talking about being busy. My motto is “Stop talking about it and DO it.”

- Winnie the Pooh stamps!

- Rachael talks about Missed Connections on Craigslist and how one artists chose to beautifully visualize them.

- I was glad to see that DoubleTree hotels changed their logo. I hated the old one.

- This ring is gorgeous. Would you wear it as an engagement ring?

That’s all folks. Check out a later post this afternoon!
