Salvaging

So in the process of getting ready for our all of our new merchandise we decided to revamp and semi-remodel the interior of the shop. (oh just wait until you see it!! I just have a feeling you are going to love it!) As part of this revamping we decided to try our best to keep to our farming and rural roots.

Susan, a wonderful employee who many of you have I'm sure worked with, grew up on a beautiful farm here in our area. She was so gracious to let us go and explore her families farm and salvage a few things including some gorgeous barn wood!! We went specifically looking for some old farm equipment, tools, barrels, baskets, and all things farm related. Oh boy did we find some awesome stuff!

Loading up the truck... check out those barrels!

Vicki and Christian gathering asparagus creates (wait til you see how we use those!) and investigating some bed frames and springs.

Sue and Jose inspecting a wooden bed frame from the barn attic.

 Passing beautiful barn wood through the wicked spiky brush to get it loaded on the truck. You go Amber!!

 Our little helper for the day! His favorite parts were eating rocks and playing with the tires on our old farm truck while we loaded.
