imagine my delight when i opened my mailbox today and found the november catalog from anthropologie. oh my goodness, i was blown away. the thing i adore most about anthropologie is their ability to take the ordinary and make it beyond extraordinary. there is no better example of this than their amazing store displays and gorgeous merchandising. the things they can do with newsprint, stone, moss - it blows me away. i never get pictures since they have always frowned on photography in the store. i have heard a rumor that they have loosened this policy. i may have to take the old camera down to the store and see how far i get...
but back to the catalog. again, take the simplest materials. books, cardboard, just plain old junk. and behold... brilliance.
love the tree ipod dock
LOVE the christmas lights!
these i might actually need...
i love how they made the sail with the red/pink/brown blankets and water with the blue/green. sigh.
i wish i actually had a use for this tree puzzle because it is to die for...
i swear, they really must bottle creativity at that store. what a wonderful treat for the eyes! <3
some new additions to the blog. over there <--- on the left is a widget from kids eat for... website. it lists the myriad of "kids eat free" deals that restaurants are offering these days to help save you money. they also have an iphone app. very cool!
and over there ---> on the bottom right i have added links to some of my favorite orange county bloggers. if you are an OC blogger and a facebooker, come on over and check us out. i love finding new local bloggers. such a great resource for finding lots of fun things to do in your area.
on a much more serious note, i have the soldiers and families of fort hood on my mind and my heart. what a terrible tragedy. :(
