I don’t think I’m alone in the fact that I love everything in Anthropologie, BUT not the prices! Most of their items seem to be something to splurge on or knock-off as your next DIY project!
I’m the kind of shopper that walks straight to the back of the store to browse the sale racks. If I should happen to pass something that I can’t live without…well, that’s usually when I start figuring out how to make it on my own for a fraction of the price. {I’m cheap like that!}
With the holidays coming up I’m looking for cheap and easy creative gift ideas and ways to spruce up my home for the holidays. I found some super inspiring DIY Anthro knock-offs that I know you’re going to love.
