Side table Inspired by Anthropologie

I fell in love with this cute table from Anthro....but when I saw the $395 price tag, "Gasp!"....so my wheels started turning and I figured out a way to create  a similar style. I actually think mine is cuter. What do you think?

This is the Original Anthro Table $395

First I put a primer, then paint, then wiped the finish with a Minwax Gel stain.

Frame out the top on the table like building a picture frame. This woll hold the glass.

I found this aweome retro fabric at an estate sale for $3. They were curtains in their past life.

The finished project!

Anthropologie Inspired Outfit of The Day

So I've always been a fan of Anthro.....but not their prices! Holy smokes! Even the "Sale" rack can be a little outrageous.

But Anthropologie does a great job at making vintage styles modern and current. If you are a girl who has ever been curious to try vintage fashions....subscribe to Anthro's catalouge and prepare to get inspired! Being the thrifty girl that I am, I enjoy the thrill of the hunt at my local thrift store. Yes, my friends, the Goodwill. Which I will also refer to as "The GW".

Here is my Anthopologie inspired Fall outfit.

Getting Started

So I'm new to the blogger world, and quite honestly the word "blog" annoys me. But I have a passion for fashion....especially when i can find it at the thrift store! I wanted to create this blog to share with you my finds and treasures from clothing to home decor.

I remember thumbing through magazines when I purchased my first home, dreaming of ways I could decorate each room. From exotic bamboo chairs to crystal chandeliers...my taste is what most would call eclectic; mixing antiques with modern pieces. But if you decorate with things you love, somehow it all comes together.
