Like how cool would something like this be above a bed as a canopy-type thing. It's fairly simple---strips of painted burlap, some netting, some strings of chandelier-esque beads, a little hula hoop wrapped in fabric...that's what's great about Anthropologie's visual style--it's made up of fairly easy, cheap materials.......Like old books!--just hot glued and screwed together to make these sweet flowers...
Okay back to my future home--
I want a wall like this somewhere in my house. This wall had some texture to it..like they applied some plaster to it first that that it looked like slate. But I think a similar look could be accomplished with chalkboard paint and some dribbles of white paint.
And lighting---
I really like the industrial clip lights used in the foreground paired with the HUGE, elegant hanging swirl of silver balls and string over the central cash register area. I want to make a mini version of something like that over our dining room table to mask our ugly built-in ceiling fixture that looks disturbingly like a shiny, brass boob (sorry, dad)
Well, I'm off to clean and do some Halloweeny-type things. Have a good weekend!
