- Mood boards are a great way to spark creativity. 
- You can create a board that inspires and spawns thinking from a different perspective.
- Creating them assists you in learning a new design tool, refine skills by reacquainting yourself with a tool you haven't used in a while.   
- Mood boards provide a broad tool for early on in a project to help you determine the most general ideas about the look and feel of the content.
- What to include? anything — photography, images, graphics, designs or illustrations, color palettes, textures, descriptive words — anything that helps you define the direction of your project.
