Hi Friends!! Wistful Wren has been busy working on a new “nest”, and it’s huuuge!
Please check out Virginia Found Goods on Facebook. It is located on 710 Pocket Road in Hurt, Virginia. We are working on the old Virginia Label Company factory to turn it into a fun shop. My new friends from the area have been working hard every day to make this place look like a shiny, new penny. We will offer Found Goods from not only Virginia but all over the country. My hope is you will love this place as much as I do:)

I am so grateful to be part of the best shop around. It truly is a very special place, a tribute to the owner and amazing vendors that make up The White Brick House.
Every time, bar none, I work at the WBH, customers walk through the door with a smile on their face, eager to see what they can find while they soak in what is The White Brick House experience.

Fall is in the air, so is heat and humidity, but word is summer is turning to autumn. My favorite autumnal decor are PUMPKINS!
You can find these velvet pumpkins, for $3 each, in classic orange or farmhouse white at The White Brick House:)

It is with a grateful heart I share two two bits of exciting news 🤗
I am so blessed to have found such good friends who share my passion for "Found Goods". I've made my home in Virginia and being part of The White Brick House is such a great part of my life. Thank you to my friends who recommended our lake house to be shared in Home Magazine. I am so honored. Our home was a true labor of love and working with the magazine was so much fun.
My passion for "Found Goods" has brought me to such a great place not only with friends but my second bit of news. With the amazing support of my better half, I am excited to announce my new business venture🤗
We bought a factory and warehouse which will be the new home of Virginia Found Goods! We are in the process of making it our new "home", home to some cool junk. It will offer hand made pieces, vintage items, upcycled furniture, project pieces and found items from not only from Virginia but the other 49.
When I worked on my Virginia home, I scoured flea markets, Craigslist, auctions, tag sales and any place I could find treasures to make my home special. In the process, I found a lot of cool stuff. When I was finished with the lake project, it was hard to break the junking habit. Now I don't have to. I look forward to meeting new friends and help finding those special pieces that makes your house a home. I am also looking forward to making Virginia Found Goods a special place to visit.

What about using part of this for an industrial light fixture!! Ohhhhh I have the perfect spot for it!

Here are some pictures of the Cottage by the River. It reminds me of one of my favorite movies, The Money Pit. When I first watched that movie, I didn't believe the scene where they tore the house apart. Well, that was pretty realistic. I haven't seen this house in person yet, but I do have a vision of what it's going to look like.
Marc broke through the wall on the other side of the staircase. It's going to steal some room from the master bedroom to make a den/office. I can't wait to see it!

Happy Friday! I have been pretty quiet the last few weeks but I am getting ready to reveal a big surprise!!
Life can be so funny. If someone told me just a year ago that I would have a farm with chickens and a kitty rescue I would think they were crazy. If two years ago someone told me I would be living in Gretna Virginia, I wouldn't believe them. If two weeks ago someone told me I was going to have a puppy, I would think COME ON!!! Well if someone told me I was going to .........ahhh, I almost slipped! I can't spill the beans just yet, but I will say it's as exciting as having a farm with 8 chickens, 7 kittens, three cats and a puppy!!

Getting ready for The White Brick House' Farmhouse Event!

I LOVED home improvement projects when I was little. I remember episodes of children's shows that from time to time would include building a tree house or painting a room and I couldn't wait to see the results. When Lucy and Ricky moved to the country, I was head over heals with their farmhouse💕 Now with HGTV and DIY channels galore, you can watch renovations whenever you want. They never get old for me. Here is a project we are currently working on. It our little Cottage by the River. It was owned by Esther, a 92 year old sweet lady. We want Esther to be proud of our new little cottage. We found Esther always wanted a fireplace, and her house will have one. Here are the before pictures and some of the deconstruction.

Oh gosh, it's happening again.....someone please pry these farmhouse pieces out of my caressing arms. Oh Farmhouse, how I love you so.
