Inspiration Board Builder

August 3rd. 2009 by Abby Larson | Filed Under | 43 comments

You guys are going to LOVE this. I mentioned last week that we are going to be launching a new social network called the Style Circle in the coming weeks. It’s a kick ass site that will allow you to rub elbows with like minded brides, vendors and wedding junkies all in the name of style.  In a word, it’s awesome and you guys are going to really love it.

Anyway, the very coolest part about the new Style Circle is that we are officially launching our baby…a brand spanking new Inspiration Board Builder. It will give you all the tools you need to create the most beautiful inspiration boards known to man…without the fuss of dealing with photoshop!

Here is a board that I created just a few minutes ago with images from one of my favorite Tanja Lippert photographed affairs…

If you scroll over each image, it will give credit where credit is due and will provide a link so that you can contact the vendor if so inspired.

Isn’t this great??? It even automatically creates the little white lines that I love so much, that keep the board totally clean and pretty. Oh and you can choose from ready made templates or you can design your own. It’s awesome, so so so awesome. And definitely a little addictive.

We have some of our brides testing out the Style Circle right now and we’ll be inviting more to test it throughout the week, so if you emailed, sit tight…we’ll be in touch. Then, we are hoping to open it up to the public shortly thereafter! Can’t wait for you guys to dive in and really get your hands dirty!

xoxo

    That's great!! I can't wait to use it. And I'm sure this minor problem probably will disappear when testing is done, but as of right now, the credit info for the pictures to the right is being cut off by the ads.

    LOVE THIS! I cannot wait to try it out - one neat thing to add as a future request, someway to link back to details or contact bride or photographer etc. I really love this wedding - clicked on the photo of dress to see if I can find out who it is by etc...fell in love with lentils/placecards (we are using all shades of greens) As my fiance would say, AHGENIOUS!!!!

    Amazing - thanks so much for adding this! Right now I have a disjointed mish-mash of images because I've been too lazy to make a "real" inspiration board, so this is going to be the perfect tool for pulling everything together!

  28. Oooh! Can't wait to see it!

  29. Jackie says:

    Wow! Don't know how somebody came up with the idea...But it's fabulous!

    Is there a way that I can try it? Not a vendor just a future bride.

  30. Nan says:

    This is amazing... I have no clue how to make a muse board. I've got the old fashioned cork-board inspiration board at home.

  31. Amanda B says:

    Where is the bride's dress from in this inspiration board? Who is the designer? I can't seem to get that info from the board...Thanks :)

  40. Admin says:

    Yep, they do. But we are hoping that ours will be even better! We put a TON of time and thought into our builder to make sure that you can design the PERFECT inspiration board. After all, we like to think that we started the inspiration board trend way back when!

    How do I get into the Style Circle? I tried joining and it said by invite only? I would love to get on!
