Finding Fall


Welcome to Best Friends Antiques fall update. After Blanchard's successful Harvest Festival last week end, we are looking forward to celebrating fall. The trees are showing hints of color and most of the nearby farms have harvested their produce. Roadside stands have a plethora of pumpkins, squash, gourds, corn stalks along with great apples and seasonal vegetables. We are nestled in the midst of huge sugar maples that share their brilliant color with us each year. The shop hosts a barn full of painted and country furniture as well as other unique primitives. The workroom on the south east side of the barn is also being put to use for the first time, as it holds school desks, tables, and an amazing old green cupboard. The little guesthouse is open to offer crocks, blanket boxes, tables, totes, chairs, windows, shutters, and more. Our fire pit has been put to good use during these past cool rainy weeks. It is set up to offer toasted marshmallows and hot cider to visitors who stop by to warm their hands and feet as they browse the grounds of the shop. Please come and celebrate fall with us.

  1. Oh my gosh that photo made me want to bundle up with a blanket, some cider and some Brachs! What a great update! You really know how to capture that Michigan fall spirit! Nate and I are closing on the house on Monday! We may need to stop by the shop and hunt for fall items to spruce up the new place!

    Miss you!
