Who or what inspires you?

I have a really hard time getting inspired during the winter time. I guess I get the winter blues really bad. I have a hard time getting up and functioning. So I spend alot of time looking through blogs, magazines and books, trying to find something to inspire me to do something! Today i found some of the prettiest ideas for cottage decorating on Artsy mamas blog. Here is a link:

I love the use of chenille, and the sweet banners over her childs curtains. Makes me wanna go home and decorate! Who are some of your favorite blog artists? I was reading on artsymamas blog about Sommerset magazine. I've never looked at it, but her blog about it makes me wanna go find a current issue! Do any of you read it regularly? What do you do when you have the blues to get yourself inspired?
