Spring into Cleaning


The SUN is out today !
Yipee

It makes me want to throw open the windows and start cleaning.



I just got in this funky book...
A guide to natural Housekeeping.

It really is fun. It has some great ideas for keeping things "green" and some super organic choices.

It also has some great display pictures.


My favorite...
Caldrea.


great gift idea for the hard to buy for, practical ones.



I hope the sun continues to shine...

See you around.

I'm jumping right to summer...


Hello. Happy Wednesday !!
I am jumping right into summer !

Our March was like January and now our May is like March...
Cold and rain.... ugh (48 degrees today)
BUT I am changing my attitude. THIS will pass. The SUN will shine.

Jumping into summer with a margarita. Doesn't it sound so good.
We are selling this fabulous mix that has a hint of jalapeno pepper.
It is fabulous....
Bring on the sun.


the bloody mary mix is also super good.



It's always fun to get some new product in at the Barn.

You should see this table now... (pictures were takin a few weeks ago)
...we are down to bare bones. I need to reorder this stuff soon... even the cute child's chair is sold.



come in and stock up for the long weekend - before everything is gone.




Hope to see you soon.

vintage silver art


For the love of Vintage Flatware.

I LoVE, mix and match, highly Tarnished, old silver.

So much so, that I created a line of vintage silver wall ART.
They are only available at the Barn. They are NOT sold anywhere else.
Lori Miller - exclusive





Canvas in all sizes... special orders are taken via email
or phone order.
Barn 763.427.5321


They were a big hit at my Junk Bonanza sale.
6 different styles



If you are into smaller sizes with loads of texture, I do have a few 10x12's shown with cardboard and wood back drops.
Also, 4x6 and 5x7 postcards



All available for your home
The quality is so good, most people have to touch them... thinking it is old Barn wood. 
It is fun to hear..."oh my goodness... it's on canvas..."


I just wanted to share this with you in case you are looking for that special Mother's day gift.  I can hardly believe it is the 7th of May and Mother's day is this weekend.
Boy oh Boy... this spring has flown by.


lots to do...must get busy
see you soon.

the Barn ...revised


Hello. Good morning. Thanks for stopping by.

Part of the fun of doing a show (Junk Bonanza) is the fact you get to RE- Vignette your booth twice a day.  There is something about using the same props but inventing a whole new look in a matter of minutes.  I had so much fun that I came back to the Barn and re-invented a whole new room.

AND

I LOVE IT

Let me show you.....


I started with hanging this fabulous map... don't ask how I got it up by myself.

And then I built this bookshelf wall with parts and scraps and boxes that I could scrounge up...

Again, don't ask how I managed this by myself.
When there is a will THERE is A WAY.

Fabulous.


A place for my treasures... my books.

There is something about the printed page.
I prefer a book to the computer.... any day.


There are so many talented people out there...


part of the Yard Sale ... in a Barn promotion
 that we are doing now includes the books. 
Let me tell you, everyone loves when the books are on sale !!!






We have something for everyone, but I only buy the books I like.... as you can see, I like a LOT.



... and this is only half of the titles.
I have piles of books scattered throughout the Barn.

Mixed in all kinds of vignettes.







I hope you enjoyed a look at my new space...
It's the first place I go with my cup of coffee when I land at the Barn every day.
To the back... my refreshed space.

I stand and drink it in.

Love the Barn.

See you soon.

Remember.... sale continues until Tuesday.
( closed Monday)
