Inspired By: Typography (and Hello Hydrangea)

If you haven't come across it yet, one of my favorite new blogs is called Hello Hydrangea and there's a lot to see over there! Leslie, the owner, posts these really neat "inspired by" pieces where she shares her inspiration, and then how she adapts it into something of her own.

In other news, I made coasters with some leftover felt by using this tutorial from How About Orange. :)
