Good morning, Design for Mankind!!! I’m thrilled to present yet another dose of Inspiration– now in its FOURTH issue! In case you’ve missed Issues 1-3, find them right here, available for a free PDF download.

If you’re new to the site, Inspiration is a FREE montly e-zine dedicated to inspiration in its various forms. This month’s issue is entitled “Inspiration in the Unexpected,” and pays homage to the idea that inspiration is everywhere— you need only open your eyes.

Again, special thanks to all contributors— you guys totally blew me away. And a BIG thank you to Dasha, who created this issue’s cover image!

Lastly, thank YOU, readers. For inspiring me daily.

  • wow Erin, these are some of the most beautiful photographs I’ve seen in a long time. The one by the 14 year old is so painterly. And the confetti in that sepia field is inspiring. Beautifully curated, laid out and written. Erin you are a gem.

  • Oh I’m so excited. I love your e-zine’s. I’m bummed that I have to rush out the door to faux a garage door and shutters right now, b/c all I want to do is look throw this while drinking my coffee. I guess now I have something to look forward to when I get home:)

  • Thanks, Samantha. And I know— that 14 y/o?! Can you believe it?!

    Move over, world. :)

  • BEAUTIFUL as always!you have one of the prettiest ezines ever! and yay! you’re using issuu! i love that you can flip like a book!

  • Thanks Erin! I’m delighted to be featured in your ezine along with such great artists/photographers. I couldn’t believe it. You are the one!!

  • aah gorgeous photography and thoughtful words! Thanks for creating these wonderful ezines. I could keep coming back to this one.

  • Those pictures truly represent what inspiration means! I so very love the confetti-photo… And it’s true, inspiration can be found everywhere… but it surely helps that these photographers have such a great eye for capturing that inspiration in everyday life on a photo!

  • erin, AMAZINGNESS!!!! you are such a rockstar. great work, yet again!

  • i’m not going to get much done today after looking at all the portfolios for the artists! so wonderful.

    i love the confetti photo and would love to do that right now. sunny day in march by chaira balza reminds me of my mom hanging out the wash in our backyard, so i love that one, too.

    the e-zine looks awesome in issuu, but i’ll still download and save each one.

  • Aww, I’m so glad you’ll be saving them, Cindy! :) You’re too sweet.

  • yeah- can you see me clapping and jumping up and down. i am looking forward to this. how do you always seem to time these right when i need i burst of inspiration. thank you.

  • I love the end of the month…not for the promise of new horizons, nor for the joy of ticking one month closer to summer….but for your e-zine!

    I *love* this issue especially! The photographers you featured were stunning – especially the dashing vintage photo taking by the 14 year old! WOW! I really liked the laundry line, as well as the Cinderella in London…okay, I loved them all!

    Thanks so much for putting your heart into this and inspiring us!!

  • I’m of the same mind frame that inspiration is absolutely everywhere :) Thank you for bringing this e-zine to our attention!

  • The e-zine looks great! Love the idea of capturing the little things that inspire. I think my favorite photo is the recreation of a nightmare. I thought it was a little creepy/funny too. This might be a new form of therapy :)

  • Oh Erin: It’s sooooo good. I just love it all! I can’t wait to indulge in every little nook and cranny tonight.

    Great job. ~suzanne

  • This is my favorite e-zine yet! It was such eye candy and I could wait for the next page. My favorites are pages 8, 14, and 15. The nightmare one is SO fantastic.

  • Thannks so much for including me in this issue!! it’s really exciting :)
