January Inspirations

I find the bleakness of January always helps to spur me on to find new directions....I'm just not sure in which direction to go!
Do I go it alone? Combine forces? Something new all together? Who knows!

While I ponder on my next step, I have always fancied starting a collection of some sort....

Maybe a funky little collection of clocks, like the 'habitually Chic' interior designer's NYE display?

Or vintage letters. I have one 'N' saved from a falling sign, narrowly missing a passer by.
Maybe this could be an apt start to my future collection?

Or frames? Although I'm not sure I have such a nice expanse of wall at the moment and imagine all of that dusting!
