If you are a female creative and/or entrepreneur, you know the importance of good images. And not just any kind of image, flat lay photos have become a staple for many women running their own businesses--for instagram, for blog posts, for pinterest and product shots. So where do you get your hands on some of these adorable props that you see around the web? I'm going to share a few of my fave sources and props with you here.

3 / AMAZON

I think this may be my absolute favorite source for props (and many other things) because the prices are amazing and I don't have actually have to leave the house. And, if you have prime, you get free 2-day shipping on most items (try prime for free for 30 days HERE). You can even grab office supplies like paper which is a pain to haul home. It's like heaven!
