If you are anything like me, one of the best parts about visiting Anthropologie stores is to see what new handmade displays are adorning the windows. Each time I visit I am amazed by the creativity (and work!) that goes into making these elaborate scenes.
Some of the best are always the holiday windows, don’t you agree? It is so magical to arrive on a cold winter day to find the store transformed into a wonderland :) Well guess what? Now we have an opportunity to learn firsthand about what goes into creating an Anthro window! Anthropologie will be hosting a series of creative window display workshops over the next several weeks in stores across the U.S. (and one in Canada) where participants can dig in and help work the magic of preparing a window for the holiday season. Doesn’t that sound marvelous?
