INSPIRATION: ‘Farm-Fresh’ Living Room
I was going through old magazines yesterday and found this image from an old Country Home Magazine {lordy I miss that magazine!!}…
This space is clearly on the country side, hence the “Farm-Fresh” theme… but it’s very cozy and warm looking, and fits perfectly with the twenty-ten trend towards Grandma Chic. Want to recreate this look in your own house??

First things first, lets talk about the STRAW. Someone told me once that a true, working cowgirl would rather spend her money on her animals first, then her boots, then a coffee table. No matter what your priorities, this idea has TWO BRILLIANT QUALITIES ~ it’s GREEN & it’s FREE. According to Country Home they used vinyl blanket storage containers {available HERE}, filled them with straw, then added a plywood base & casters. I LOVE THIS!!! {NOTE from CH: if the straw settles simply unzip the containers & add more straw ~ easy~peezy}
Here are a few more links to getting this ‘Farm Fresh’ look in your own home!!
