Today's Finder

Take the Etsy Blog Survey

 

January 30, 2010

Many of us use inspiration boards to encourage our creative impulses. Whether stimulating ephemera is found on a studio wall surrounded by paint bushes or a casual family photo collage on your fridge, images can influence style, decor, and the daily art of living. In the great tradition of muses, the theme of today's Etsy Finds takes a work of art and translates its concepts into wearable fashion.

Take a look at our first article in this series, Masterpiece Wardrobe, and feel free to post an art inspiration and fashion translation of your own in the blog comments.
