Vintage Laundry Cart Charm .. Back to work designing One Of a Kind pieces


My goodness I can't believe how long it's been since I last posted. Life sure gets busy ...

Well we had a wonderful Christmas and Happy New Year and we're ready for Spring ..how about you?

The Trees and shrubs are already filled with buds and some of the dogwoods are in full bloom as we drive down the roads. The Daffodils are blooming I drove by 2 farms this week that had them popping up along the road side.. and then this morning it decided to snow.  Only for a while and not much stuck .. the ground and buildings are just to warm after the 60 and 70 degree weather we've been having the last week. But it's been a beautiful last hurrah for winter to say goodbye and usher Spring in. 

Abbey and I have been back to work .. sewing and designing fun new goods. We have a new vintage apron line we have created and we'll be starting to share those in the weeks to come. We also worked on a cute vintage Laundry Cart the last few weeks.. the liner for it had seen better days and was just screaming for some cuteness .. so we had fun designing and creating the new liner from vintage linens, lace trims and charming fabrics. 

We did a sneak peek of it on our FB page and had a few ladies who were interested in it just from seeing it in it's early stages of being pieced together ..so once we finished it, of course it needed some equally as cute photos. So yesterday Abbey and I headed out to find a cool place to photograph it .. and landed in a small town a few miles from here where there is an old Mill on the side of a river that is no longer open or working but it's still absolutely beautiful. The mill made a fun backdrop and we had the best time photographing the cart.. Here's a few photos from our shoot yesterday for you all to enjoy ! 

We'll have more fun goods coming available .. to stay up to date with what we're doing be sure to follow our FB page HERE

Spring Time and Going back in Time

It's been an interesting week here at Sweet Magnolias Farm ....

This week Abbey and I have been a bit out in left field ...unable to get really creative in making things ..we opted to work on some different things ..

One was changing the backdrop for our pictures ..and trying to go a bit lighter ..we hope you will enojoy our new look in photos.

The other was digging in some old boxes we've been carrying around for 15 years ..clear back from the days we live in MO ...

We had a few boxes full of vintage linens that we aquired at a farm sale ..Yep 15 yrs ago and had all the best intentions of getting to them but never did ..so this week Abb went through and pulled out some cute aprons and other linens ..washed them and ironed them ..and below are just a few that we have listed either on our website or Etsy this week.



(the 2 aprons above are listed on our website)

OH ..I had to share this great cannister set with you ..found this recently and loved the look of it ..was going to do something creative with them ..then changed my mind as they are great just as they are..so they are now being offered in our Etsy Shop.




And These Two Pretty Pink Sweeties aren't they just lovely ..so perfectly springy and with Easter on it's way ..they would be just charming to hostess in. We've added these 2 to our Etsy shoppe.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

More Great finds to come ...so stay tuned ...you never know what Abbey and I will be up to ..rather it's hitting some of our favorite haunts for new finds to offer or just digging in some old stashed boxes ...finding treasure right here in the farmhouse.

Pretty in Pink ...and Spring time

I guess my body and mind are running ahead of the seasons lately ..I was working on Christmas in September of 09' and now Spring has been on my mind lately ...Abbey and I were up in the workshop ...going through boxes of vintage lines and such ..and came across some sweet pink pieces. Immediately ..I knew what I wanted to do with the pieces ..and this last week it all came together.
