Barn Board Furniture
Here is a sample of barn board furniture we found. These are some really neat pieces and I plan on making some that are similar. It's a hobby to me, so the prices will be affordable just in case you need one. I will post some pics along the way so you can see the construction as well.

New Antique and vintage stoneware
We are bringing in some pretty cool stoneware items. Collecting is fun and some hidden treasures pop up from time to time. Great for decor too.
Old Antique Barn Board Lumber
Just brought in a large supply of old barn board from the late 1800s. Great for deco or the crafter in you. Most pieces are 16 feet in length and 12 inches wide. This antique lumber is for sale. I will have all the old beams in very soon. This barn was put together using timber framing methods of days gone bye. All done with wooden pegs, no nails!

Antique Stoneware Jugs
Here is a new stoneware jug I just added to the collection. I love the artwork on it. The stoneware addiction goes on. As usual I am always looking for new ones to purchase. I guess I will have to hit the auctions this weekend. If you have some pics. of your favorites feel free to put them on. We also have some new Antique door hardware in. See photos later this week.

Antique Boards & Barn Board
Going out today to look at some old barns to salvage. I will try to bring home as much as I can get on the trailer. Old hinges, door knobs & gorgeous weathered lumber are on todays list. These old boards are a great way to decorate & create some cool items as well. Time is running out for these old structures. So I"m going to bring them home.

Moonshine Still Pictures & more.
I am drowning in crocks right now, good thing for the Memorial Day Sale. I just thought I was going to keep a "Moonshine Still" we have & now I have a ton of offers on it. It's such a cool decoration I hate to part with it. These things are not very common either, so it makes selling it a bit harder. We currently have a huge inventory of antique dishes available. If you have a special request let me know, we may have it.

Furniture Refinishing
We have all heard never refinish antique furniture. Some times you find a piece of very high quality such as the dresser my wife is redoing. There were many layers of old paint & a coat of some ugly red colored stain. This dresser was a very high quality piece when it was made. There were no nails used in its assembly, it was all done with tongue and groove and dove tail joints. I am going to add some pics. of this very soon. I was told it will require complete disassembly to restore properly. Krisy is the expert on this, so I will keep you posted. Yes it will be for sale but not for a while for sure.

Antique Stoneware Crocks
One of our small crock collectibles. A really neat item, and a great decor piece. It is for sale. We have many of these to choose from also. I just can't resist purchasing vintage & antique stoneware items. I have become addicted to them. I'm sure you will too!

We will be announcing our sales locally and on Twitter along with Facebook. If you have an interest in becoming one of the store vendors let me know. You can email us at the following: moosejuicelotions@live.com. You can also do this right from our profile as well.

New Stoneware Has Arrived
How cool this is, I have been buying stoneware from a local auctioneer, online bidding. This really saves a bunch of time, which I am totally out of. My Natural skin care products have been taking a back seat lately. Trying to open a "crafters" type store has been my main focus as of late. Even this blog is behind. If you have a product you may be interested in selling or having your own store I have the room for you. We will also do consignments for you as well. I am interested in carrying product lines as well, so if you have an interest let me know.

Antique Website
I suppose I should break down and do a website for our collection. I'm not sure about an e-commerce site yet. Just how much could I actually sell online is hard to say. Sites such as ebay have a huge selection, but the pricing is thru the roof. I could sell them much cheaper with reduced shipping costs as well
Antique Stoneware
Today I purchased some antique stoneware online. I found some great pricing and couldn't resist. I'm going to add them to store items I currently have for sale. They are very unique. As of late crocks & other stoneware such as jugs and bottles are bringing premium prices. I plan on doing some posts on antique dishes real soon, we have a ton of them from all over the place.
Auctions vs. Flea Markets
Auctions are a great way to find specific items. One of the things that I don't care for is the wait for the item you want to come up for bids. There is some risk too, some one else may be willing to pay way more than the item is actually worth. On the other hand the Flea Market is all about the thrill of the hunt. I have found many treasures and was able to negotiate the price as well. Lately I have been on a stoneware mission, crocks and bowls for the most part. On weekends I usually find myself roaming the country side looking for that "special item". I'm hoping to see you there.
Our Friend - Hippies Creations
Here is a link to a new friend of ours with some very cool items for sale. Check them out today
Antique Moonshine Still
Here is on of my favorite collectibles, this still came from an old logging camp in Northern Wisconsin & was given to me. I have not put this item up for sale yet, but I am open for offers.
