Fun {Fall} Farmhouse Finds!

(All sources are linked below via affiliate links.)

Hi Friends! Since we are just days away from the official start of fall, I thought it would be fun to share some great finds for your home that will help you welcome what is arguably the coziest of all seasons!

We have some of these items in our home currently, but I love them ALL...

So far this year at little farmstead... (Part 1)

As we head into spring, and find ourselves already in the third month of 2018, I want to thank each of you for visiting and reading along here on the blog. It really means a lot to me. I'm grateful for your comments, and also for those of you who connect with me through social media. Thank you!

I thought this would be a good time to round up posts this year to date, some of which you may not have seen. 
(Looking back, even I'd already forgotten about some of them. Life is full, isn't it? ;)

Unique Vintage Farmhouse Finds {What Stays and What Goes to the Shop}

Hi friends ~ Thank you for your encouragement these last several months as we started our shop space inside of M&M Antiques in Monroe, WA. Many of you who are local have even come in and shopped. That means so much to me!

Today I thought I'd share some recent farmhouse finds and talk about the challenge of determining what we keep in our home vs. what goes into the shop. That's a question I get asked a lot... How do you know what to keep and what to sell?

First, let me say that I try to offer items in the shop that I would use in our own home. That helps me when considering purchases for the shop space. (But it can also cause me to second-guess keeping things because they would usually work so well in our home! See what I mean?! ;)

This 1920's hutch was a tough decision. One hundred year-old patina like this is hard to find. But, it is in our shop where it is holding a lot, and will hopefully make someone very happy!

Our January Farmhouse Shop Space

Hope your week is going well! I'm just stopping in to share a few pictures from our shop space inside of M&M Antiques in Monroe, Washington. We have some beautiful time-worn European dough bowls and a charming chippy white cabinet.

Christmas at the Shop...

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas at our space inside of M&M Antiques in Monroe, Washington. And speaking of Christmas, that's how it felt as I spread out and tagged some new inventory in our dining room the other day...

Our New Farmhouse-Style Shop Space {A Peek Inside}

 Hi Friends. Thank you so much for all that support you have shown me as I recently opened up a retail space inside one of my favorite (like all-time favorite) local antique shops, M&M Antiques in Monroe, WA. It has been a lot of fun filling our booth, and we are learning a lot in the process. 

Although this is a busy time of year with back-to-school, I also think it is a really great time to begin a shop space as we head into the cozy, holiday seasons of fall and winter. 

 I hope you don't mind if I occasionally share some shop posts here on the blog... It is another  canvas to try out decorating and display options that I may not be able to pull off in our own home. ;) 

Please come in and have a look around...

An Announcement... (And a Trencher Dough Bowl)

Thank you so much for stopping by today. I'm excited to share something I've been working on with you!

Yesterday, I signed an agreement to have a retail space in one of my favorite shops for unique, time-worn treasures...

Tuesday Tip (Open the Box!)

I had a few extra minutes today before picking up my bright-eyed Kindergartner. 

So naturally, I decided to take a quick stroll through a favorite thrift shop. :)
