Peek-A-Shoe!

As the saying goes... 
"a place for everything and everything in its place."

Stop clutter at the door and provide functional seating with our stylishly rustic foyer bench.

The drawers below are perfect for stowing shoes, hats, gloves, pet leashes, re-usable grocery bags, you name it!

We love the detailing of the hardware and the slim sizing makes it fit just right even in slim entry spaces or hallways.

Sprucing up for Spring...

The genuine article

Every now and then a unique piece comes along that we can't wait to share with our customers. Problem is...we also hate to say goodbye. The great one-of-a-kinds don't last long at Harvest. We were recently thrilled to feature this incredible trunk.

Isn't it amazing? We only had the opportunity to enjoy it for a few short weeks at Harvest, but rest assured, we found it a lovely home where its owners will enjoy it for years to come.

If you're seeking an amazing one-of-a-kind find, you must come in to see what's new. We are always bringing in new, unique pieces, and as I mentioned, the good ones are only here for a short time. Right now, we have a great looking, genuinely old, glass front hutch.

The patina is awesome and the color is a gorgeous mix of sea greens.

This hutch would look incredible in the bathroom filled with towels and toiletries, or in a guest room stacked with vintage quilts and great books. Of course, it would also be the perfect dining room accent in which to display your favorite family dishes.

I had to share this fabulous image that has been floating around the blogs lately.

Thinking about ditching my mirror and going with this alternative instead!

I love it when people think outside the box.
