One Stop Shop: Anthropologie Offbeat

The last in our little trio on Anthro. will be for the gal who loves this store not only for its gorgeous inventory... but also for its inspiring displays. Lets face it, part of the way that we justify their somewhat hefty pricetags is because of that warm fuzzy feeling we instantly get when we step in- the space is just so inspiring and unexpected...

So while you can definately justify purchasing many of these items for your wedding and then reusing them for your home- a little part of you wants those creative projects that all the brides around the blog-scene drool over....

I suggest that you look towards Anthro's gorgeous window and product displays for inspiration when styling the event.... by mixing highs (beautiful tea cups, platters, and select furniture pieces) with lows:

straw chandliers

straw chargers

mason jar lighting


newspaper (or love letter)space divider/definers


sticks- lots of sticks

You will be able to stay within budget, keep it indicative of YOUR STYLE, and even have a mound of useful pieces for your married life. Perhaps you could have one of the art directors at your local Anthro commissioned to be a part of your team??

Good luck! And for all you IKEA gals- check back later as that will be our next stop in the series....
