Where I get Ideas
November 7, 2011
I get most of my ideas from all the great bento web sites that are out there, including:
- http://www.mybentolicious.com/
- http://justbento.com
- http://www.cuteobento.com
- Adventures in Bento Making 2010 Compilation of Cuteness
- http://www.e-obento.com/
I also spend a lot of time looking through Flick’r and Pinterest with keywords ‘cute food’, bento or whatever kind of animal I am looking for (i.e. ‘lion bento’)
My non-bento inspiration lately is from simple coloring books and how-to’s on cartooning and drawing chibis.
