Not stationery related (just easily inspired): It's easy to find inspiration in this restoration of an abandoned chateau in the south of France. Here is one place I wish I could visit in person:
There is a chateau in the south of France known as Chateau de Gudanes. It was built in the early 1700s and for nearly the past 100 years it has become derelict. It was run down, with a broken roof, and no one to roam its halls. Then a couple from Australia fell in love with the chateau, bought it (after a lengthy legal process), and has begun to restore it to its original glory.
Besides the obvious beauty and grandeur of the structure and the scenery there are countless hidden gems that the couple posts close-up details of regularly on their blog, facebook page, and instagram (yes, I follow all three!).

The headstone above (I guess I am assuming here, that this is, in fact, a headstone) "PAX" translates to "Peace." To me this blog shows that there is such beauty in the past, and in history. Sometimes we just need to dig through a little bit of rubble, and do a little bit of polishing in order to find it.
