I was browsing Anthropologie’s website yesterday and saw all kinds of lovely things. Here are a few of my favorites… All images from Anthropologie
Anthropologie has tons of silverware stuff right now. I love this Silverware chandelier. I feel like you could easily make this. I’m sure you could find a tutorial for it somewhere in blogland.
These placemats would be great to help teach kids the “correct” way to set a table! Marcy over at Haverford House has some cute diy placemats that are a knock off of these!
Not that I've done it, but I bet you could make that lamp. If you got one of the lamp kits (or disassembled a thrifted lamp for all its innards), the tea cups, tea pot, saucers, etc that are stacked together to form the lamp. You could use a ceramics glue (or maybe just super glue) to paste them together after you have used a drill to put holes through your pieces to run the wiring. I betcha could do it!

Oh, and I love those placemats!!! I have little girls that are old enough to set the table, but we don't always get things in the right spot. :-) I had been thinking about getting plain placemats and using a marker to outline the utensils and plate, etc. But those would be a whole lot prettier!

Anna,
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comments! I was thinking the same thing, that lamp can't be hard to make. I may have to add that to my list of projects! I came across a knock off of the placemats using graphics from The Graphic Fairy, you may want to check it out for your daughter

They are lovely things. Courtney just this week, I came across a tutorial for the lamp. If I can find it would you like me to send you the link? I love the egg crate.

Love all this Anthro! That lamp or chandelier would be great projects to recreate. Good Will & thrift stores are filled with the materials! I bet you could do it too! ~Marcy
