Spring
This season's spring windows were a celebration of rainbows! Large, colorful arcs were accented with dyed fabric strips and strings of hand-painted wooden beads & shapes.

Summer
This summer window was an earth day installation, featuring large mixed media sunflowers with intricate centers. the materials were carefully selected with a focus on sustainability and a natural feel. They were made from an assortment of papers, rope, twine, wood, natural dyes, and seed paper.

This window told the story of the tree - the tree we see above ground, and the intricate roots hidden underground. Repetition of 2D silhouettes were used to create feminine, graphic, representations of trees. Paired with sculptural 3D trunks, leaves, and root details, there is a balance of dimension and detail.

Holiday
Windows
This holiday season showed off what Anthro does best - whimsy, and animals! The star of this window was the adorable huddle of mischievous penguins (yes, a group of penguins is really called a huddle). The many penguins lived among a landscape of icebergs and icicles - with some of the icebergs lit within to create an extra special glowing, magical element at night. Making animals is always such a treat, and each of these penguins were well loved by me, my coworkers, and caught the hearts of many customers.

Post Holiday
Once it was time for the Penguins to leave their Anthro nest, I held an adoption event for my coworkers and friends. I’m happy to report all penguins found their forever homes - and fast! I couldnt let them ALL go, Popcorn and Potato came home with me and they are now holiday decor staples in my own home.
