Inspired by Anthropologie

I'm sure we all have dreams of 3-day weekends. Why does that extra day sound so exciting? I am thankful that it provides me with an extra day to spend together with my husband away from school, but if it also offers more time to procrastinate. I hope others get their plans out of the way so that tomorrow can be spent on some serious relaxing.

Anthropologie is a store like no other. On top of their clothing, furniture and jewelry, they offer an atmosphere that fuels inspiration. Anytime I am in an area near an Anthropologie chain, I have to go inside and refill my creativity tank. My grandmother is usually my partner on these excursion because she understands how to turn their products into my own little projects by saying, "you can make that. All you have to do is..." on one of our visits, we found this embroidered sweater. My grandmother promptly took me to find a gray cardigan and a book on embroidery stitches. 

After some quick sketching and our usual food-channel marathon, we had a beautiful version of a universal cardigan. It was inspired by one of my favorite stores and made with one of my favorite people!
