Wonderful Shops

Anthropologie offers a one-of-a-kind and compelling shopping experience that makes you feel beautiful, hopeful and connected. I love the wonderful mix of products as well as the support they give to artists and craftspeople and the fact they champion smaller labels. The window and store displays are also the best around for imagination and impact, and many other companies follow their lead, and try and recreate the same style




The first store was opened in 1992 in Wayne, Pennsylvania and the company now has 175 stores in USA, Canada and has now opened in the UK.  However it has retained its innovation, artfulness and good design despite the size of the company. Each store has character, and the unusual mix of clothing, accessories and home is many ways curated rather than bought.
 Although you enjoy the clever details and fine craftsmanship of our products, you come to us come to escape and to connect, to spend time and to make time.


I have included some lovely images for you to drool over….

Interesting Extras!

Hunted and Stuffed Cushions

I found this company at a trade show in London, I think their products are great fun and I really appreciate the fact that they make something new and contemporary from found and recycled items. These striking home accessories are a complete move away from the mass-produced items found in the high street, which as always is true to my heart.

 
Hunted and Stuffed specialise in sourcing origional vintage textiles and upcycling them into beautiful new creations for the home. All pieces are one of a kind or only a small quantity is produced, everything is made in the UK, using British materials where possible. Bespoke work is produced foe retail customers, celebrity and commercial clients...
 
 Owner Ellie Laycock’s forthcoming book ‘Creating The Vintage Look’ (Cico Books) is a guide to upcycling vintage pieces to create your own unique decorative and functional objects for the home and will be published internationally in September 2013.
 




Till next time!
