Here’s what to expect the day of our grand opening event! The local Pataskala Chamber will be coming to do a ribbon cutting with us, Friday May 11th at noon! What a fun way to kick off our big day and include all of those attending! We will have a parking attendant directing traffic flow on the premises to ensure there is an organized flow throughout the weekend. Mr. Farmhouse Chic will be grilling up some of his speciality burgers and hot dogs on the grill under his food tent, for purchase! Dining tables and chairs will don the space for you to sit down, relax and enjoy a bite to eat! We will be offering personalized Farmhouse Chic sugar cookies and light refreshments inside the store, while supplies last! There will also be a portable bathroom on site.

We absolutely cannot wait to celebrate all of our hard work in that little 420 square foot space! Expect the store to be packed full of goodies, ranging from home decor, fashion, fragrance, furniture & jewelry! We are so blessed to have a total of 8 Ohio- local vendors bringing their goods to share with you all as well! Now, without giving away too much, I want to give you a sneak peek inside the store!

The support we have received from family, friends & the community has been amazing! Thank you to each & every one of you who support your local makers! We look forward to seeing you next weekend at our GRAND OPENING event!

Storefront Update!

March 15, 2018 by Fotini Filed Under: diy Leave a Comment

Storefront update!

This is a post that is long overdue and for that I’m sorry! I know many of you have been wondering when we are going to open our store. Well, the initial goal when we first began this crazy journey, was late Fall 2017. The original goal date came and went. Then we set another date, and it came and went. As you can imagine, this was frustrating, disappointing and embarrassing to say the least. I was really hoping to get up and running before Christmas, but that didn’t work out and we were ok with that. That would allow us to really enjoy the Holidays with our babies, and that’s just what we did! We were anxiously awaiting January 2018 so we could get a running start with finishing up the very few things that needed completed. However, the weather had a little something else in mind…

We couldn’t work in the fridged temperatures and get done what we needed to. Not only that, but our barn was placed directly on the city line. All of our work was halted until our store could be moved back at least 5 feet. And this was no easy task! It required the barn movers to come up with the correct equipment to move it. Not to mention, that all the work we had done inside could be at risk because of all the pressure. I was told that the walls could cave in because we had the “open concept” and no support in the middle. [Read more…]

Pamper Yourself This Winter with Grove Collaborative

February 13, 2018 by Fotini Filed Under: home 1 Comment

Mrs. Meyer's body

It seems like February is always the time of year when I get tired of Winter and start dreaming of Spring. I’m so ready for sunshine, fresh air, gardening and flowers coming up, I can barely contain myself! Since we still have a good few weeks left of Winter, my friends at Grove Collaborative are offering this free personal care kit to help cure the winter blues. When you place your first order of $20 using my link, you’ll get:

  • Free Mrs. Meyer’s body wash
  • Free Mrs. Meyer’s body lotion
  • Free Grove loofah
  • Free Shipping & 60 Day VIP Trial

If you’re an existing customer, you’ll receive a free Grove lip balm — perfect for soothing chapped lips!

Grove Collaborative

Dry winter air is particularly hard on your skin. I’ve found that switching up my regular bar soap for this creamy Mrs. Meyer’s body wash was exactly what my skin needed! It’s made with aloe vera so it’s super nourishing, and the scents smell like a spring garden. My favorite scent so far is the lavender! 

Mrs. Meyer’s body wash is even better with this Grove loofah. You only need a little dollop of soap on the soft mesh to create a rich lather. It’s great for exfoliating and increasing circulation to leave your skin smooth and glowy.

After a nice hot bath, I love using Mrs. Meyer’s body lotion. It sinks in quickly, and hydrates without feeling greasy or heavy. This has earned a permanent spot on my bathroom counter next to my Mrs. Meyer’s hand lotion!

Grove Collaborative

Grove Collaborative has become my go-to for healthy, beautiful personal care products. After you place your first order, Grove will remember the products you love and even recommend a shipment schedule so you don’t run out. You can add or remove items from your cart or change your shipment date, and they’ll deliver everything (carbon offset) to your doorstep, on your schedule. They’ll even suggest products you might like, which is how I’ve discovered some new favorites!

You’ll get this set free with your first order of $20. Here’s an example of what your cart might look like:

  • Grove hand sanitizer spray 3.95
  • Mrs. Meyer’s foaming hand soap 3.89
  • Preserve soft toothbrush 3.19
  • Tom’s of Maine sensitive toothpaste 4.79
  • Yes to Blueberries cleansing facial wipes 5.99

Cart total: $21.81

You’ll get all those products + Mrs. Meyer’s body wash and body lotion + Grove loofah for around $20! Plus, you’ll get free shipping and a free 60 day VIP trial. Grove really pampers their VIPs, from free shipping to free gifts, price matching, exclusive sales, and personal service.  

This offer is only available until February 18, so don’t miss out!

How it works:

  1. Sign up for Grove Collaborative here. You will receive the FREE personal care kit for free when you sign up!
  2. To receive this offer, your order needs to be a minimum of $20. Choose the combination of products and scents you love and receive your first box within a few days.
  3. You made it! Click Finish & Pay and place your order.

Grove Collaborative is apart of our monthly routine! If you follow me on Instagram, you will see me share my monthly box openings in my Insta-stories 🙂 I hope that you decide to take the plunge and try this awesome service too!

Sweet Additions — Our Simple Valentine’s Mantel

February 6, 2018 by Fotini Filed Under: home decor

Despite the cliche of Valentine’s Day, I love decorating for the widely celebrated holiday! Today I’m sharing with you the sweet additions, our simple Valentine’s mantel. I’m not sure whether it’s the bits of pink and feminine designs that make it so fun, or just the “out of the norm” for me… but I love it!

Now, by no means do I go all out for decorating for the holiday. I just enjoy adding in bits of pink and fun textures that I may not usually use. As always, I stick to my natural obsession of neutrals. Lately though, I have been intrigued by gold! Adding it into my designs gives it a more traditional tone. I know with gold, you either love it or hate it. Had you asked me awhile ago, I would of hated it. It seems to be growing on me though. How do you feel about gold?

Hello beautiful friends & happy Friday! It’s time for Friday Favorites #43! If you’re new here, every Friday I share a little bit of what’s inspired me for the week! This week I’m sticking with my typical white, clean design-style. I’m not going to lie, sometimes I get really tired in real life of keeping all the white clean, but at the end of the day, it steals my heart every time! I know it’s not for everyone, but it sure is pretty isn’t it? 😉

So, without hesitation, lets get to this weeks inspiration…
