A big howdy doo and welcome, sweetie pies! It was just a few weeks ago that I shared with you my patriotic hutch. But guess what? I have changed it out into a late summer farm theme. And it is jam packed with country clutter. Now you know I am not a minimalist. 😆 You want to see what all I have crammed on here?
The theme is Farm and Summer time with lots of reds, blues and bits of yellow. 🚜🤠 I love color. Can you tell ?
Now most of this stuff you have seen before. It comes in and out of the hutch displays. I kept my red and white buffalo checked shelf runners though you can't see them ,and I also kept the white plates and added in some red Dollar Tree plates.
There is no stitching on the top shelf. In one corner is my Pioneer Woman Bless this Home sign. Below it is a watermelon that I painted from a notch of a log that was cut.
The milk can tin was a Goodwill find many years ago. I placed a cow creamer in the red ceramic truck which is actually a candle.
In the other corner is a yellow riser stand with another Pioneer Woman sign on it.
Some yellow prickly floral picks from Walmart and a ceramic milk jug with a chick salt and pepper shaker on top round out this corner. My sweet friend Sue, gave me the little milk can which I made a sign saying Moo. I love it, Sue; thank you.
The 2nd shelf is just as full as the top shelf.
I left Nanny's red vintage Coffee canister in the corner. I guesstimate it is from the 50's . I wish I had the whole set. Inside of it is some of Nanny's recipes.
On top of it is a creamer with a chicken ornament and a Pioneer Woman dish with a cow in it. Leftover from the patriotic hutch is the white creamer with the red chicken salt and pepper shaker.
In the middle is Little House Needlework's "Bessie " which I stitched 2 years ago.
In the other corner is a blue pitcher with sunflowers and my Summer Pasture design.
Now onto the bottom shelf.
My vintage juicer is just as it was with the red Dollar Tree soup mug and one of Lori Holt's stitch card designs featuring the red tractor.
I also kept out the stack of white plates but placed my Big Lots cow on it which has lost a horn. 🐮😳 My Summer on the Farm and Summer Farmhouse designs are also on the bottom shelf along with some Pioneer Woman barn salt and pepper shakers.
In the middle is my big rooster bank that I have had close to 20 years. Underneath is a little quilt made from my Life is Better on the Farm. I used some of my girl's clothing to make it.
On the vintage scales is a beautiful dish towel knitted for me by my dear friend, Tracey. Isn't it gorgeous? I see it displayed in many vignettes in the future.Thank you, Tracey. I love it.
On top of it is a gifted dish with a cloth watermelon and a Lizzie Kate freebie called Freedom which I stitched last year. It is finished into a pillow with some ripped homespun attached as a ruffle.
I have tucked sunflowers and little farm Christmas figurines here and there among the decor.
Wheww! That's it- my Summer Farm Hutch in a big ole' nutshell. I will probably change it out again in a few weeks to sunflowers. So stay tuned. Do you think I can convince hubby that I need another hutch? 😄
Thank you so much my sweet friends for stopping by. I hope your day is a joyous one and as always...
Happy stitching and decorating, ya'll

Make everyday a little less ordinary.
You have lots of fun decorations, it definitely says summer. My sister is a bit hutch decorator, me not so much. But it's fun to see all those little fun pieces well displayed.
ReplyDeleteAah thank you so much, Kate. This hutch used to always stay the same until about 3 years ago. I kept the same display year round of blue and white willow plates, but after seeing so many change out their hutches I decided to do the same. It has been a lot of fun.
