INSPIRATION! Marimekko and more

Something I'd like to get into is repeat pattern making and getting some designs i make licensed. I love drawing, collaging, and painting, but when I can put the things i make on a useful object, whether it be a pillow, coaster, clothing, an umbrella, shower curtain, or whatever, it gets me kinnnda excited (!)

I was introduced to marimekko last summer and luved the bold and organic designs. When i saw how they were used and all the things they can be put on, i knew exactly what i wanted to do with some of the patterns i create...now i just need to get to designing some.

The Elle Decor blog link is below as well. Its pretty awesome and worth checking out.
