Anthropologie

Becca at From Gardners to Bergers shows how easy it is to take a plain old pillow from dull to darling in no time! All …

For a grand total of $3, Sonnet of SohoSonnet was able to create her own set of colorful, geometric coasters. Sonnet started with a set of Christmas coasters she picked up at the thrift store for $2. She says they were just “screaming” for a makeover and that’s exactly what Sonnet gave them with wood grain paper and paint. It just goes to show that there’s a lot more than meets the eye on those thrift store shelves! With a little creativity, you can have Anthropologie-inspired coasters for a mere $3!

Tara from Suburble shares at Crafts Unleashed how she added interest to an otherwise plain white pillow in less than an hour. Tara had long admired Anthropologie’s tassel pillow but immediately knew she could try her hand at it. It was just easy as she thought using tassels designed for jewelry-making. All Tara had to do was sew them onto the pillow edge with white thread, and VOILA – instant pizzazz!

Ever since Vidya from What’s Ur Home Story used air dry clay on another project she’d been thinking of recreating the Anthropologie Chrysanthemum Vase. While making the flowers from clay did take some practice, Vidya says it was well worth the effort. Her DIY flower vase looks remarkably like Anthro’s and cost Vidya nothing since she used an old vase she’s had for years and left over spray paint and clay from other projects.

With the arrival of spring, Morena for Crafts Unleashed says she’s been on a gardening kick and is even creating a “fantastical garden” space inspired by the Mad Hatter’s tea party from Alice in Wonderland. She spotted a garden sculpture at Anthropologie that would make the perfect addition to the space and was able to recreate it for $35. You can even involve your kiddos in this project by letting them paint the birdhouses!
