    Virtual Open House – The Sun Porch

    May 17, 2020 / 2 Comments

    Jeff and I have lived and worked in the Firehouse for over 16 years. Our accomplished dream was to have our living space in a historic building above our antique shop, and as our business grew we realized we needed more space to show and store our inventory. When we found out this home was going to be for sale, we were actually looking into building a carriage house behind the Firehouse and even went as far as buying the property behind us to do it. A fun part of this story is the day we closed on the property behind the firehouse, we were notified that the family was…

    Mid Century Home Virtual Tour, Guest Bath Reveal

    April 19, 2020 / 6 Comments

      Another week has gone by and we are no longer saying Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday, we simply say “day!” Anyone else with me on this?  Keeping a daily routine helps my day flow and no matter what I get done, I try and stay grateful. I am making use of this time to evaluate and improve the way we share our business. This week’s challenge was working on our Firehouse Antiques’ Pinterest Page. It’s still a work in progress, but we hope you will check it out and follow us. Now on to the virtual tour. Our guest bathroom was originally the only bathroom in the house. As you…

    As we continue our social distancing, I realized if we weren’t social distancing, we would be planning our open house or we would be having you over one by one as we planned. This inspired me to come up with a virtual tour of our new home via our blog. With that said, here is our master bathroom. When we started renovations, we knew that having two bathrooms upstairs would work best for us. It would be a way for family and friends to visit and allow us all more privacy. I will let the photos do most of the talking with this post. If you have read my previous…

    Lavello Sink Reveal for The Cottage

    September 6, 2019 / No Comments

    As promised when we shared some of the wonderful renovations for The Cottage,  the sink reveal is here! Check out our previous blog post about The Cottage, where we turned this space into a new home for Moon River Spa. The space is working wonderfully for our friend Jenifer Blevins and her business is flourishing. She says her clients love the renovations. We wanted to share the update on the Lavello Sink and how wonderful it looks in the space.  We had a great experience with this company and this project was a perfect addition to the farmhouse style in The Cottage. Because the store counter piece was narrow,  we…

    An Inside Look At Our Fixer Upper

    March 23, 2019 / 6 Comments

    In our last post, Our Fixer Upper, I blogged all about the outside of our mid-century home on Brewery Street. Now is the second part, a post about some of the work we are doing on the inside. The most important piece of advice I can share is to consult an expert! Professionals know their business and for the interior house remodel I reached out to friends and valued customers. After closing the sale of our barn, now The Barn by Firehouse Antiques, we contacted our friend Emily. She shared many ideas how we could renovate the space to reflect our style as well as maintain the conveniences we need…

    March 18, 2019 / No Comments

      We blogged about The Barn by Firehouse Antiques and Our Fixer Upper and here is the final building of our recent purchase, The Cottage. The Cottage is located beside our barn and it was New Harmony’s Barbershop as well as recently, Just A Stone’s Throw who merged with Lowry Hollow and opened their new location at 310 Main Street New Harmony, Indiana. At first we thought this could be an Airbnb….ah dreams! But we are excited to announce it will now be the new home of  Moon River Spa owned and operated by Jenifer Blevins who is a friend and longtime resident of New Harmony, IN. She’s a certified…

    Our Fixer-Upper

    March 10, 2019 / 11 Comments

    As you know, last October we bought a barn. Check out our last blog post here for more details. When we bought this property, our main goal was to utilize the hundred-year-old barn for storage and as a potential event venue. The neat, but scary part of buying the barn was that it came with a house and a cottage which both need fixing up. Now we have our mid-century modern “fixer-upper”. In the beginning we focused on the barn and started preparing it as the space we dreamed of for 10 years, but over the last couple of months we started thinking of the work we wanted to accomplish…

  • Let’s talk about collecting... .. How did I find all these??? .. I’ve always enjoyed the hunt for anything vintage Christmas, I search all year long (especially in a normal year) at Flea Markets, EstateSales, Garage Sales, eBay, Etsy & Antique Shops. I dig through boxes even when what’s on top doesn’t look promising since it’s always possible that deep in the box, might be the one thing that goes perfectly w the others! .. Perseverance, patience & time is what it takes to have a collection. Oh yeah, and a safe place to store them. .. Sometimes it seems
