Inspirational Limitations

"Thrifty Chic" is a book I've been enjoying lately.  So many inspiring photographs, but the one thing that has resonated most with me is this in the introduction:

"If you can't afford to furnish your home the way you would like to, you may also find that thrift can be inspiring.  It forces you to look at things with a fresh eye..."

This is something I've contemplated time and time again... limitations bring on inspiration.  I've found that true for myself.  If there was no limit to what we could buy, our homes would likely be filled with things inspired by someone else.
