It's Finally Here - My New Barn Porch!


We were in such a hurry five years ago
to build & finish this barn before our eldest daughter Cara's wedding, which was at our home, the porch would just have to wait. Well, I patiently waited and waited and waited, you know how it is.......

This was the year we decided it was time to finally "finish" the barn, which is used as my shop. One day, it may be tuned into a little guest house. My husband and I have even thought about living there when we're too old to care for this big old farmhouse and navigate the steep staircase. We're hoping one of our four daughters will live in the old house with their family and wait on us hand and foot, I mean, look after us.

Setting posts.......


Framing........
the dimensions are 24 feet by 10 ft, a nice deep porch


Roofing, flashing and lots of painting....


And voila! It's done, looks easy but was a lot of work, we had a fab contractor and my hubby
was his "helper". I love the open, vaulted design of the ceiling. There are still some antique porch brackets to be added and I have a cool, old chandelier to hang in the gable. The brackets were salvaged from an old Victorian torn down here in Sublimity back in the 70's that I got from someone who was taking them to the burn pile! They should be repaired and in place by the end of the week. We will eventually lay brick pavers instead of the gravel, I'll have to post another pic when these elements are finished.


I'm so happy to have the porch in place before the antique faire on Aug 21st!

Barnhouse Here I Come!

I'm so happy to again be a vendor at Barnhouse on July 31st!


This will be my third year participating (since it started!) it's been fun watching this show grow and become nationally famous! The BH boys really know how to put on a great time with some of the best vendors around and their farm is beautiful.

If you've never gone to the show, this is the year to go!

Visit the BH website for more info, be sure to stop by and say hi if you're at the show - come early, it will be crazy!

I'll post more soon and give you an update on what's been happening around Molly Mo's here lately! I'm so excited, only 5 years in the making.....
