{inspiration} A Beautiful Barn Raising








I love when a diamond in the rough starts to shine brilliantly again. In this case a bland 1980's shingled home has reemerged into a stunning tribute to old barns and green design. What a fantastic mix of vintage Swedish furniture (great Kelly-green sofa) , fresh new design and reclaimed barn materials...
I am loving the steel and leather hammock & reclaimed horseshoes (dating back to the original reclaimed barn) found throughout the living room , the vintage Toledo bar stools gracing the kitchen, the repetition of exposed bulb pendants in the bedroom, the use of concrete for counter tops, the totally cool mix of modern and vintage chairs in the dining area (eBay finds) and that 90% of the wood used for the interior walls and flooring came from demolished farm buildings. Sustainable, hip and FABULOUS!
