I've wanted to blog about this lovely lady & lovely shop for a while......I found this lovely shop one day bombing down a main road in rehoboth in the garden mobile on my way to a garden job. I screeched on the brakes as I took in the prettiest shop set among rows & rows of gorgeous peonies & a perfectly manicured lawn. Jackie Lantry is the owner of this wonderful shop filled with french inspired items, antiques & the most wonderful vintage grain sacks that can be made into totes or be used to upholster a chair etc. Jackie is wonderful & has an eye for beautiful, old & unique items! Take a look at some of the wonderful things she offers in her shop & on etsy. Take a peek at her fabulous website here http://blissfarmantiques.com/ which will take you to her etsy shop where she offers her beautiful items. Her blog is charming also...be sure to visit http://blissfarmantiques.blogspot.com/. The photo above features a FABulous old french iron bed made into a wonderful bench that I purchased for my living room, complete with a large burlap pillow adorned with a french quote. I saw this in Jackie's shop & knew it had to come home with me! Jackie & her family also raise the most gorgeous peonies! They sell them to whole foods & a number of other places wholesale. The fields of these petty peonies are a sight to behold as you drive by. Enjoy some additional photos of this charming shop's items.....Have a wonderful rest of the week blog friends! xo
Look at this wonderful checkerboard Jackie had designed for her pretty yard! Bliss farm antiques is the charming structure in the background. Thank you Jackie for offering such wonderful things & for living so close I can pop by whenever I like! :)
Hello Chris, oh my goodness! I wish I lived near that beautiful place! I would love to shop there... I must visit her blog and Etsy shop... I love the old French iron bed you bought! Everything is so enticing, thanks for sharing! Hope you are having a beautiful Autumn... Bisous... Julie Marie

It's bittersweet time..yippee!
