TheTreasure Trove by the Red Barn
Tonight's post is to compliment Carole's posting on the barn with all the old architectural pieces that we passed on our trip through the middle of New York state's beautiful countryside....
She showed you some marvelous closeups of all the spindles and shutters, doors and windows that are piled up alongside this old red barn...
I thought you might like to see a wider shot and just how much stuff there really is leaning up against this big old barn...
It is a veritable treasure trove of old windows and doors...
...and if you need shutters...
spindles...
or columns...this is the place!
I have a few more pictures of Carole taking her close up shots in this setting....but we're both a bit camera shy and have an "agreement" so I left those out (even though she looked so darn cute in her straw hat!)...
...We're half way through the week...hope it's going well!
:) Laura
wow, love the barn, and the windows, shutters!

Love the barn and all the wonderful things leaning against it. Isn't a day in the country the way to go? I sure think so.

Oh my goodness a gold mine of wonderful things. I can just hear you girls when you saw it all. You would literally have to carry me away, kicking and screaming. LOL Sharon
ReplyDeleteNow this is exactly my kind of treasure trove! What a wonderful find. I'll take a few of those spindles and some shutters please!!
ReplyDeleteJust amazing! Looks like Junk Heaven from where I'm sitting.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing,

Be still my heart!! What a treasure trove!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing..now about the directions to this place.. LOL
Gale
wow, da möchte ich jetzt auch gern mal stöbern:-)))
ReplyDeleteLaura what a beautiful find, I showed my husband and he said it was a good thing I wasn't there...I probably would left my girls there to make room for all those gorgeous columns lol He was just kidding...really he was...hmmm how long do you think it would take to get from there to Ca? I mean the farm house looks comfy :) Rose
ReplyDeleteOh Laura, I want a big red barn near me.....and those shutters....I go all funny when I see shutters!!!! I love them.
ReplyDeleteAm rather disappointed that we didn't see pictures of you and Carole, especially in her straw hat.....but I respect your privacy...I think that we are all a little like that...keep the mystery that's what I say.
My computer's a little bit poorly at the moment (like Caroles apparently) so it might be a few days before I can comment properly...am doing this on my daughters but it is very hard to prise it out of her hot little hands but will try to comment as much as I can. XXXX
Love the barn , reminds me my souvenirs in New YOrk state !!! Congratulations for finding this treasure
ReplyDeleteHi Laura nice too see you again, I'm so glad!
ReplyDeleteThat stuff is simply GREAAAT! Lucky girl!
Hugs
WOW!! wish I had a Red Barn like that...the one in our town is a drive-through convenience store...buy beer & smokes w/o gettin' out of your truck. That's Florida for you! :o} *elaine*
ReplyDeleteQuite the incredible treasure trove against that barn wall. Looks like it was a beautiful day too.
ReplyDeleteLove this barn filled with these old building supplies. Love the shutters, they are seldom seen second hand up here. I have recently visited a similar place over here, but the blogpost is still in my sleeve
ReplyDelete;-) Have a great day!
Love the barn pictures! Lucky you "two" to see this beauty:) Have a blessed day!
ReplyDeleteGreat fun looking at all these lovely cast-offs. If only they would cast them my way! xx Julie
ReplyDeleteOh I am so in love! What a beautiful treasure trove of things I love!
ReplyDeleteWhat an amazing treasure trove. We have reclamation yards over here and I have not seen one yet with that kind of choice and selection!
ReplyDeleteIsabelle x
I can only imagine how lovely it would be to sift through such treasures! Thank you for sharing,
ReplyDeletexo
What lovely treasures full of possibility!
ReplyDeleteI was near Oneanta recently and travelled to Cooperstown...and I simply loved to snoop around all the antique stores in the area...but this barn tops it all!!!!
What a great stuff!!
ReplyDeleteI would like to spend some time there !
And the barn is great !
Love Peet
OOOOH - I would like to come to this place!!!! What a pitty it is sooo far away from Austria ...
ReplyDeleteHugs, Traude
Wait a minute... I live in Upstate NY and in all my days have never happened on this gem. Lead the way, was it a shop or someone with a problem? Not that it's a bad problem, heaven knows I've got a few problems of my own...
ReplyDeleteErica
Wow, all those for sale?
ReplyDeleteHow beautiful, I adore old shutters, even with the peeling paint adding old charm and whimsy, all the good things.
I also like the window frames, what a huge collection they have amassed?
Leave it to you two gals to find this amazing collection of archtiectural relics!
ReplyDeleteMarjorie

I like "My Symphony" and your design of the good stuff. Keep posting!
ReplyDeleteThis reminds me of one of my favorite local junkin' haunts, here in NC. I've posted about it several times. I can never get enough of the place! It's a like going on a treasure hunt every time I visit.
ReplyDeleteSo, did you stop in this Junker's Wonderland?
Blessings,
