Hmm....
it looks like something is going on at the farm shop?
there are sawhorses in the garden!
yes, the sign says closed...
and Pepper says:
"Mom, don't even go in there...."
we are in the process of a total renovation!!!
{whatcha doin' up there Pete?}
Actually
the men folk are sheet-rocking the storage area above our office...
with the steadfast help of our buddy Chris,
{our right & left hands here on the farm!}
this is what Pepper doesn't want you to see:
a massive pile of stuff in the center of our shop ~
just waiting for new wall paint, floor paint, trim paint and new shelving and lighting too!
it is already so much brighter with our beams painted white!
and I have even chosen a new color for the front door...
PURPLE!
{every good witch has a purple front door you know}
ok, more of a reserved Plum color, but plum is in the purple catagory ;)
there will be wrap-around shelving along the bottom half of the walls,
~ and new pegboard will be above the shelves to the top of the beams..
the walls will be a brighter white,
while the floors, trim and pegboard will be a warm grey enamel ~
this view below is how I feel with the shop in this condition:
so off kilter for me!!
why, there is even run-off from inside,
to the front porch!
Pepper:
"I told you not to go in."
*sigh*
So, while we are in the midst of remodeling, we will be of course
C L O S E D
and I will keep you updated on the progress of the remodel!
Our new look will be brighter, roomier, and more organized for the needleworker to shop ~
think: vintage farmhouse with a nod to modern industrial ;)
...we will also be adding more stitching space {tables and chairs} for Stitching Saturdays /Classes
and a NEW coffee bar too!!
woot woot!
while the men folk are working in there,
I'm working on models for new things... always busy & productive ya know!
have a most-beautiful Tuesday my sweet friends!
Blessings from the Farm

Cannot wait for the big reveal.
Kudos to your menfolk, lots of hard work...but it will be oh so wonderful! ~L
WOW! The beams really pop 😍 I Love It!
HOLY DANCIN' DONKEYS!!! This looks wonderful and I can't wait to see the finished shop!
Fabulous! What a gorgeous space, love those whitewashed beams and ceiling. Color choices sound perfect, but of course, an artist chose them.
Oh my goodness! The beams painted white are awesome. I see rugs hanging from them. :-) Wow. I look forward to seeing it all brightened. Lovely. I bet all the colors are gonna pop with the white.
Oh, I meant to include...the purple front door. Excellent choice.
By the time I get to visit Notforgotten Farm, all will be freshly updated and ready!! Remodeling is messy and challenging, but oh-so-worth-it in the end. Yay for the purple door!!! <I;)
A BIG project for sure but it will be all fresh and new. Spring is a great time for fresh inspiration.
I can't wait to see the final reveal!! I LOVE everything you have showed us so far......Lisa
That's an ambitious remodel!!! I hope it goes smoothly :)
That's some big time renovation for sure. Pepper is a beautiful hound ans definitely part of the family!
Oh,how I wish I lived near you..it will be beautiful..excited to see it finished..
It looks wonderful and I like the cleaner, brighter look and mixing industrial is fun to do.
