Hi Ho, Hi Ho, to Anthropologie We Go...

My Mom, Violet, and I had a Mom and Daughter Outing today to celebrate my birthday. We went to Anthropologie, P.F. Chang's, and Goodwill. Oh. My. Gah. Girls!!! Anthropologie is AWESOME!!!!! Major eye candy, I tell ya!! I was smitten...Love that place. I'm fairly certain I could live in Anthro. Just give me some coffee and some food and I'm good to go. ;)
I had my Mom take some pictures to share with y'all. She has a fancy phone. I cannot even begin to use it...
The above pic is the storefront window. They had all kinds of evergreens, wrapped in coffee sacks. So cool...

These tree stumps are actually wrapped in corrugated cardboard. Who comes up with this stuff?!?!

Oh my word...a pinked piece of sandpaper and two matches rubber banded to the candles. Such a cute idea!! You can barely make out the Guest Check paper that its on, but someone had sewn a bunch of them together to make a table runner.


I'm thinkin' my boys need this deer in their room. The antlers are made of what appears to be pallets.

This section...one of my favorites. Anthro has the cutest tea towels. Lucky for y'all you can make your own using my tutorial over at Life in Grace.

My other favorite section...I got a prize from this area!! I'll share it with y'all soon, promise. :)


Cute, cute towel!!



Oh my stars...this book idea was so cute!! These pinecones and acorns were made of felt and sooo cute!! Seriously, who comes up with this stuff??

I am so gonna knock off this bird pillow. Mark my word. Its fab!!
Thank you all for coming along, it was fun!!
