wally...apologies for my long-overdue updates. pre-holidays have been filled with kids, kids and MORE kids obligations and activities. that being said, i couldn't wait another minute to share these shots from our local anthropologie store located in corte madera, here in marin county.
this tree was created on site and constructed from actual tree branches. the leaves are all tissue paper, cut and hung by hand.
these displays are absolutely magical and worth a trip just to take it all in. people are "oohing and ahing" all over the store (and they haven't even broken their wallets out yet!). each anthropologie store has it's own stylist crew and is given a theme. no two stores are alike. i would love to see what they've done at the third street promenade store in santa monica.( hint)
the entire display you see here was created with mere tissue paper. this particular section of the store has soaring ceilings. the stylists cut thousands of ribbons from snowy-white tissue paper then draped it from the rafters above to create this dreamy snow fall effect.
when a slight breeze blows through the store, the ribbons sway with it.
my favorite display was this section of the store that created hundreds of tissue paper flowers from white, ivory and creme tissue paper. it is absolutely gorgeous. giant pom-poms from floor to ceiling that spill from the interior of the store out to the front windows. i felt like i was waiting for a winter wedding to begin.
the pom-poms are all back lit with bulbs wrapped in chicken wire which creates this ethereal effect... i left so inspired. it was truly a "winter wonderland".
