Fall Harvest Time

Fall equinox has arrived and farmers are out gathering their harvest.  Last weekend, Sean Wood and his family helped Elizabeth Erin Designs do some harvesting as well.  It wasn’t a bountiful crop of corn or beans, it was barn wood!  It was a rewarding weekend to be outside and find the beauty in a building that was once very useful, but for the past 25 years was sitting unused.

Our heads are spinning with ideas on what we will create out of all these beautiful boards.  I have included some inspiration photo of what I would like to make, but you will have to keep checking Facebook, our Newsletter, and Pintrest to see the final creations.  Have a beautiful week!
