Great thread. I keep a notebook/scrapbook of sorts for this, but I haven't added anything in a while.

hmm I really don't get mood boards. I like making collases and stuff but I can't honestly see how bunch of pictures could make me inspired. Oh well, diffrent people, diffrent tastes..

So I'm not really familiar with this concept. Is this things you guys see that inspire you to create something. And you just put it together in one place?

I have a scrapbook that I keep pictures of outfits I like, or haircuts, or hair color, or just because I like the picture. and I often refer back to it for inspiration before shopping, picking an outifit to go out in.

so i guess (If I understand this correctly) I've a look book of sorts all along and never knew it.

it seems to be that in this case, a mood board is the inspiration in creating a "mood" for a collection (or another project). It's like a "theme."

So it can be different from a sketchbook with random drawings, photos of things you like. Please correct me if I'm wrong

Cool. That's what I thought. Thanks.

Obviously mine is not for a collection, but I guess I've been doing this anyone.

u got the concept!!!
creating a mood board is based on a specific theme and all photos or pics u put on it should be the ones related to that particular mood.

just cut out all sorts of pictures that have to do with your own holiday pictures, etc. and little objects/stickers/etc. that can be placed on the page.

for college level art courses I'm attending this summer the teachers are having us start pasting pictures of things that we like/inspire us, be it a color, layout, anything, because it could be helpful in the future...maybe if you have something like this it could help?
