A Beautiful Place

Anthropologie has some fabulous decor. It also has some outrageous prices....so when I see a certain plate I need for $28, I take matters into my own hands :)

Here is the Antrho plate:

So sweet & simple & a bit whimsical....and pricey...I found a blog where Lori did a knockoff version. It totally inspired me to do the same!! Here it is!!

I adore this plate. Everytime I get a glimpse of it, I can't believe I did it :)


I used a plain old fine tip sharpie marker for my words. I don't know how this will hold up, but we will see. I found the simple plate at the thrift store for 49 cents!!


Still can't believe I did this :) I found my own saying to put on it. It says "Some people look for a beautiful place...others make a place beautiful." by Hazrat Inayat Khan.

This project really put me in the mood for SPRING.....
