Site Designs I Love!

Here are some sites I love... they're more detailed than what I want to do, but the feel is right.

I particularly love the bottom one since it incorporates the bold black. Also, the background image is the one on my business cards, strangely!

I also came up with a new idea for my previous site mock-up with the wallpaper... maybe I would make an outdoor element with a thrift-shop-like sign. I tend to gravitate to the sites that feel like a little environment that you can step into.

At the same time, I love simple, minimalistic designs.

All I want to do is create something *now* that is "good enough." That's always my tendency, but E continues to make me Wait. There's just not enough time to tackle this big project right now, and I'm trying to be okay with that, to enjoy the process. The journey versus the destination, and all that jazz...

And I have to admit, I'm liking spending time just figuring out what I like. It's quality me-time, and it's fun. I even sketched this week. I never sketch!
