I've been working incredibly long hours lately and my blog has taken the back seat for a while. Between the new shop and trying to keep up with making themes to sell my free time has gone down from a 30% to ZERO. Three nights ago I broke my bed time record. I went to bed a six in the am and woke up at 8:00am that same morning, can you believe it? .After 2 hours of sleep I just couldn't get myself to figure something to blog about. Don't get me wrong. I'm not complaining. This has been a wonderful, precious and indulging time but inspiration has not necessarily been an item on my list these days.

After changing everything up last night I realized how little things make me feel comfortable and inspired and I wanted to share them with you. Please leave your tips in the comment section.

Live, then blog.  I find it hard sometimes to get myself out of the house. I tend to put my commitments first and I often realize there's no blogging without a life. Going out, speaking to people, reading, everything around us is a source of inspiration.

Use your resources. Flickr, Pinterest and other image based sites are a great source of inspiration. Reading other blogs or magazines put you in contact with trends and styles emerging within the blogging world.

Make. Take time out to do something you love. Work with your hands and you will most definitely jump-start the creative vibe.

How do you overcome those inspiration-less days?
