That's what we've been hearing ever since we opened our

In-Store Design Studio at the Barn.   

Stylist Wanda Furman worked her considerable magic in the back room upstairs at Hammertown Barn. The gorgeous bed was designed by Tim Jones & Wanda and is part of their new signature line of furniture, Furman-Jones Essentials (available exclusively at Hammertown). Come on in and have a look...I guarantee you'll be inspired to do some magic of your own!

Here's what's new this week in our stores!  

We've got great new things in our stores like beeswax architectural candles and locally made pottery, but we especially liked these Matchboxes from Susan Schneider at Shandell's.  

Susan makes each of these by hand from Vintage images.  There's a different image on each side and the Matchboxes are reusable.

These make a fun, one-of-a-kind hostess gift and what horse-lover wouldn't want the Matchbox shown here?

Is landscaping for the Birds? 

You bet it is!

If you feed the birds through the winter you know how they help us with the winter doldrums. Come spring, however, there are different schools of thought.  Some bird lovers believe it's time to take the feeders down for the summer yet many other experts say you don't need to.
