1920s Farmhouse and Barn Sale ...

Ah ...Does the title of this post just not make your heart swoon with excitement ...!!!

It did Abbey's and Mine ...when a friend of ours told us a few weeks back about an upcoming sale that would be held in an authentic 1920s Farmhouse and had a Barn and Wood Garage to boot !!!

I'm telling you my tummy had the rumbly's just like Winnie the Pooh ...

And the week leading up to it I couldn't contain my excitement.

So Last Friday off we went before the sun rose in the sky to grab ourselves a place in line hoping we could be one of the first few to enter and get to choose some of the prime pieces.

Indeed we were numbers 6 & 7 In line and they let the first 20 in and closed the gate behind us ...Wooo Hoooo were we so thrilled !

So Abbey went in the house ..I took the garage and barn and Papa Fred stood guard over all of our fun finds ..without him ..our finds would never make it home with us Sad to say.

So Our truck came home full ..An antique Pie safe an old rustic bow front cabinet ..Wire egg baskets and feeders, Vintage Fabric ..Old farm dresses ..and so much more that it makes my heart swim just to write about it. and I want to go back for more !!!!

So I just finished up listing in our Etsy shop the first of some of our finds and thought I would share these vintage beauties with you all ..

It's spring and time for color ..and what says spring better than some vintage Fabric ..

A stack of old vintage feedsack fabric, cotton print, and novelty seersucker ... all in bright, colorful designs ...

The strawberry print above is my absolute favorite

Florals that are so happy !

And little lambs that remind of you little pitty pattering feetsies !

And just in time for Easter ..

what better to find than a whole stack of vintage Easter baskets !

Positively sweet they are ..some are marked Japan and Occupied Japan ...and some are more colorful than others ..All perfect for Easter decorating or to use in your farmhouse kitchen the whole year through ...

Sweet Magnolias Farm Soldered Window Charms.

If you've seen the large windows I offer ..well these are my miniature version of them I am now offering.

Each one is made from an authentic pane of glass from an antique window.

I Make the custom graphics ...and have a special process of addding them to the glass.

Each piece is soldered ..and Prisms or Keys or a unique vintage ensemble hangs from the bottom ..while a sweet seam binding tie adorns the top for hanging ..

Vintage 50's and 60's Novelty Fabrics ...

As Many of you who follow our blog have read about in earlier posts ....

Abbey and I were priveledged to attend an estate sale nearby that lasted about 9 weeks . It offered up some wonderful vintage finds from a thrift store that was once in business and helped needy teens. About 20 years ago the owners passed on and it was closed and has been in limbo ever since ..finally it came time for them to liquidate everything that had been left from all those years ago ..and boy was there alot and boy was it ever dirty and stinky. !! Along with the thrift store itself which was massive ..an old bus barn that housed two buses years ago was used as storage and had been filled end to end with thrift store donations that hadn't been touched in over 30 years ..

Needless to say Abbey and I tried to make it to each sale ..and boy did we find some fun vintage finds ..In those finds we came by some wonderful vintage novelty fabrics ...which we of course washed and cleaned so they are nice and fresh and have just listed 4 of them on Etsy ..

These pieces are fabulous for making vintage aprons, pillows, curtains, and so much more !!!
