"Ever since its bold beginning over thirty years ago, Anthropologie and its creative teams have been creating handcrafted displays, from grand seasonal decorations to small notes hidden in drawers. The Art of Anthropologie showcases how the artists in the stores transform everyday materials, taking craft techniques to new heights. This is a celebration of time-honored crafts and traditional handiwork reinvented splendidly with a modern twist, creating imaginative outcomes such as flower gardens made from office supplies, sculpted waves of wood scraps, wine corks mosaics, seascapes made of upcycled packaging material, animal sculptures of every shape and size, gingerbread villages and more. Anthropologie at its core strives to be a celebration of artistry, creativity, and curiosity, and this book will inspire the reader to get creative and explore their own adventures."--
