Alvin & Anastasia
November 01, 2025
Welcome to our joyfully eclectic registry! In the spirit of mindful racoon, since college, Anastasia has stockpiled a multitude of household 'staples' in her basement. After moving in with AJ, however, she has realized that pink plastic dishes may not be the most reflective artistic choice for them as a couple. This registry is about finding items that reflect them both or perhaps replace an item they already have with one that is more 'I'm an adult now' and less 'let's get crazy at Illinois State University'. If you see something in the wild though, that isn't on this registry and screams 'AJ and Anastasia MUST have this'--please know we do enjoy a good surprise.
