    Emergency Space

    / November 30, 2024

    Living in a small home means having to find our emergency space. Whether it’s for a new vintage find, or a visiting child during the holidays, we always seem to need the extra space. When Thanksgiving came…

Hi,Everybody! Β I’m Jenn! I’m the crazy chicken lady behind Down Shiloh Road. Please take my *possibly dirty* hand as I turn “junk” into treasures, plant lots of flowers, feed some animals, make that recipe and/or make the most of my tiny home!

WHO'S BEEN PAYING ATTENTION AROUND HERE??🀎 Three WHO'S BEEN PAYING ATTENTION AROUND HERE??🀎

Three hutches....Three stories. πŸ€—

I am a sucker for a hutch!!!!!! If you've followed me for a while, you may already know the stories behind these three hutches. But let's have a little fun anyway! πŸ˜„

One we built ourselves. One we gave a makeover. And one I bought over 30 years ago! 😳

Now, can you match the story to the hutch?πŸ€”

πŸ‘‰Which one did we BUILD? 🀎 Which one did we REDO? 🀎 Which one have I owned for 30+ YEARS?

Drop your guesses below! I'm curious to see how many of you remember their stories! πŸ‘‡πŸ‘‡πŸ‘‡

DID YOU CATCH THAT??? πŸ€—πŸ€Ž Did you happen to catch DID YOU CATCH THAT??? πŸ€—πŸ€Ž

Did you happen to catch this cozy little corner during my fall home tour? 

This corner was one of the NEW REVEALS, and I thought it deserved a closer look! 🧐

I've had a love for antique samplers for years, and my collection actually began with one that had my husband's birthday stitched into it...same month and day, just the year 1855! 🀣 
I figured that was a pretty good reason to bring it home!

I've been collecting them ever since. There's just something so special about those tiny stitches, faded fabrics, and the stories behind them. I love imagining the young girls who sat patiently stitching each little letter and design so many years ago.

They're such beautiful pieces of history, and I love the warmth and old-fashioned charm they bring to our home.

Do you collect antique samplers, or is there another piece of history you just can't resist?

COME ON IN, FRIENDS! πŸ‘‹πŸ‚ It's time for a little FA COME ON IN, FRIENDS! πŸ‘‹πŸ‚

It's time for a little FALL HOME TOUR! β˜•πŸ‚πŸ€Ž

There's just something about home in the fall. The cozy corners, collected treasures, warm colors, and all those little touches that make a house feel welcoming.πŸ€—

Today, I'm inviting you inside our home here Down Shiloh Road for a look at how we've decorated for the season. 🍁

I've put together this little reel of still photos for those of you who enjoy taking your time and soaking in all the details!

I'll also be sharing a MORE PERSONAL TOUR IN MY STORIES, where I'll chat about some of my favorite pieces, the talented makers behind them, and the shops and companies where I've found so many of our treasures.

And the fun doesn't stop here! I'm joining two sweet friends for a few days of fall home inspiration!

πŸ‚ Monday: Amy myrustichouse

πŸ‚ Tuesday: Beth oldetymemarketplace

Be sure to visit their beautiful homes over the next couple of days, too!

I hope you'll find a little inspiration, a few decorating ideas, and maybe even a reminder that a cozy home doesn't have to be perfect or fancy. Sometimes it's the collected, well-loved things that make it the most special. 🀎

Tell me, what's your favorite room to decorate for fall? πŸ€”

TOO BEAUTIFUL TO TUCK AWAY. 🀎🌿 I'm still official TOO BEAUTIFUL TO TUCK AWAY. 🀎🌿

I'm still officially decorated for Fall here but I wanted to share this beautiful nativity set before it sold out!! πŸ™ŒπŸ˜­

There's something so special about the simplicity of a nativity scene. A gentle reminder of what Christmas is truly about. 🀎

I'm loving the beautiful aged terracotta finish of this nativity set from DecorSteals. I paired it with fresh greenery, candlelight, and an old chippy window for a simple, collected Christmas look.

And wouldn't this be absolutely beautiful in a greenhouse?😍 Nestled among old clay pots, evergreens, and a few collected garden treasures. 🌿

One of the things I love about Decor Steals is that they offer unique, affordable home decor through their daily deals. I've always believed a home should reflect the people who live there, and I love finding pieces that help tell that story.

This beautiful nativity is one of today's Daily Deals, and quantities are limited!

πŸ”—Link in my stories !!!! 

Where would you display this beautiful set?

I LEFT MY HEART IN TEXAS.... 🀎 As much as I love I LEFT MY HEART IN TEXAS.... 🀎

As much as I love being back in our cozy little home, I sure did leave a big piece of my heart in Texas. 😭

We had the sweetest time soaking up all those newborn snuggles with our new grandson, Asher, and goodness, I miss that little boy something awful already! πŸ₯Ή

For those of you who are grandparents living miles away from your grandbabies, how do you do it? I'd love to hear your advice because this long-distance grandma thing is already tugging at my heartstrings. 🀎

A LITTLE GLIMPSE OF HOME ....... πŸ‚ A little glimp A LITTLE GLIMPSE OF HOME ....... πŸ‚

A little glimpse of home while we're still here in Texas soaking up all the newborn snuggles with our sweet new grandson. πŸ€—

We're enjoying every minute of this special time with family, and I know all my little projects and cozy corners will be waiting for me when we get back.

For now, I'm right where I want to be. 😍

Happy Tuesday, friends! 🀎

I MIGHT BE A LITTLE OBSESSED πŸ‚ With DRIEDS!!!😍 D I MIGHT BE A LITTLE OBSESSED πŸ‚

With DRIEDS!!!😍

Dried gourds, dried sunflowers, dried cornstalks, dried wheat, dried bittersweet branches, dried broom corn, dried pumpkin stems..… I just can't seem to get enough of them this time of year! 😍

There's something about decorating with things that have been gathered from the garden and fields that makes a home feel especially cozy in the fall.πŸ€—

I love all those natural textures, faded colors, and perfectly imperfect shapes. And the best part? So many of these things can be enjoyed year after year. πŸ™Œ

These wonderfully chippy stacking boxes from decorsteals are the perfect place to tuck in some of my favorite fall finds, and they're on sale right now!😍

Tell me, are you a fan of decorating with dried naturals too? Or do you prefer fresh flowers and greenery? πŸ€ŽπŸ‚

STILL THE COZIEST SPACE IN THE HOUSE. πŸ€ŽπŸ‚ I've alw STILL THE COZIEST SPACE IN THE HOUSE. πŸ€ŽπŸ‚

I've always believed that a cozy home is about more than just how it looks. It's about how it makes you feel.

For me, it's all about the layers. A soft rug underfoot, comfortable pillows to sink into, the warm glow of a lamp, and the familiar scent of a favorite candle.

I love mixing soft textures with weathered wood, old treasures, and natural elements. Nothing has to match perfectly, and I think that's part of the charm. A cozy room should feel collected over time, not decorated all at once.

Our beautiful rug from abanirugs adds so much warmth and texture to this space, while the candles and wax melts from redfoxprimitives bring in those wonderful scents that make a room feel even more inviting.

And one little thing I always love having nearby? Coffee table books and magazines! There's just something about a pretty stack of reading material that invites you to sit down, get comfortable, and stay awhile.

I'm curious... do you love having coffee table books and magazines sitting out too? Which is your favorite? 🀎

NO REGRETS!!!! πŸ‚πŸ€— Some projects take a little lon NO REGRETS!!!! πŸ‚πŸ€—

Some projects take a little longer than expected...and then there are the ones that seem to take forever! 🀣

This old hutch was definitely one of those projects! Between all the work, the painting, the little details, and trying to bring my vision to life, it took me much longer than I ever imagined.

But looking at this BEFORE and AFTER of our front living room foyer area, I can honestly say I have NO regrets!

I loved this little corner before, but there is just something about giving an old piece new life and creating a space that feels like it has always belonged.

Sometimes the projects that take the longest end up being the ones we love the most. 🀎

Which look is your favorite? Are you a before or after kind of person?
