ice.... ice baby

Crystals and glass. Ice ... ice baby.
My sparkly jars have sold and sold and sold some more.
Everybody love them! Me too. That's why I keep ordering them.

They look so festive and fun in any setting.
And, since it is winter.... they look awesome in a winter setting.
A perfect vintage winter setting.

Before I left for Atlanta I wanted to get as much of the store re-done as possible.
I actually didn't do to bad. With the help of my friend, Cheryl, we did get quite a few winter vignettes done before I left. This one was oh. so. fun.




you can tell I am still stuck on some of my fav's...I can't help it I'm hooked
on the tattered books....

....and the birch....



... and a sprinkle of green in my world of frozen ice


.... and all the vintage abused goods that I could gather.










... too fun. love this one.








:))))

it is like a recipe
a hint of green
a dash of growth
1 hand made clock face
a bundle of typed pages
at 70 degrees in an old Barn
add a bunch of vintage finds
= the perfect vignette










can you believe all of this is still here???? that it hasn't all sold????
well maybe by the time I get back to Minnesota it will all be gone???
I would actually be sad.
I am a pathetic retailer.... I never want my stuff to go






I do have way too much fun at my Barn



Crystal and glass...beautiful.








thanks for stopping....L

Whitest White

Even though it is cold outside, the days are getting longer....well, you know what I mean...
it is staying light longer.
Maybe that is why I crave white so much in the
winter months, because it is so dark and cold outside.
White is so bright and clean it warms up the room.




Love

precious little tea pot


I got this post out in the nick of time as I am flying out now to Atlanta.
I actually do have two additional posts ready to publish while I am away (I know crazy woman)
....time to go ...ttfn L

Winter White

Another day of -15 degrees.
But don't you love white in the winter. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE white all year long....but after Christmas, there is something about the cleanliness of white.
... just don't think about the cold.


I can't get enough....











leaving for Atlanta Tuesday morning
If you have not been to the Market in Atlanta.... 3 large buildings,
Oh, so much to see....

I still don't have my game plan, but there is always the 4 hour plane ride...
it'll come to me. The good thing is, I know what I like, I know what I want...
and the crap is easy to filter out.
I can't wait to show you what I have found....
The Barn is open while I am gone...the Barn girls will be there no matter how cold it gets
.... burrrr

Layer it on. Change it up.

Time for a refresh. Have you ever looked at an area in your house and thought I am done looking at that mess.   Or maybe it's just time...
