It was a beautiful day at the 5th Hudson British Car Show which was held Sunday may 30th in Hudson...This years Hudson British Car Show attract people from all over, and every year the show and its popularity keeps growing among visitors of all ages. Classic British cars where on exhibit, such as London Taxi's from the 50's to 300SL & 190SL Mercedes to Morris 8's , Triumphs, Daimlers, Studebakers, Corvairs and MGA's.

Perhaps I have a different car criteria over men, but any car that had a picnic basket on it get my attention, there is something so nostalgic about these beauties. View my photo collection from the event, the wheels, the hoods, the hood ornaments, the font frills, the back side etc...

Spring ~ Summer Decor Trends & inspirations...

miycreations.com, Miy inspirations, miy, at home decor with Maddy

Inspirations comes from many places, I would even say that we all inspire each other in many ways. As a designer, one of my favorite things to do is simply go window shopping...no buying. I like to see the retail trends and then I put my on interpretations and twist into my creations. Sometimes its a fabric or a colour that will inspire me, or a shape or a unique detail. It's never just one thing as a whole, its a combination of bits and pieces of the things I have seen. It can even be a fashion item I saw on a walker by. I always come back from these excursions most inspired. I always look at it all as a whole, the decorations, the fashions, the buildings, all of it inspires me in one form or an other. These are some of the items that caught my creative eye and spirit this season while in Montreal window shopping and at the Montreal Spring Gift Show which is for trade only (so you can get an concept of what up and coming).

After I see things that inspire me, I let them simmer, I kayak, I get inspired by nature and then when I make things, I get a creative serge that leads the way to a new creation.

Miy file box decor craft with Minwax

Miy Decor Project ~ Style Files
Getting organized with style


Getting organized is a great way to start the New Year, and you can start with
your files and magazines. This wooden file box organizer has been stained
with water-based stains that are odorless - and therefore perfect to use
indoors this time of year - with easy cleanup afterward. Two different tones of
green water-based stains were applied to give the unpainted wooden
magazine box a creative tone-on-tone wash-type of finish.
