Weathered Charm - May 2, 3 & 4

What is the favorite piece of furniture in my newly remodeled house? It's an easy answer. My favorite piece of furniture is an old farm bench that is repurposed as my coffee table.  I found the piece when we were first hunting for Re-Treat goods at a random flea market in Minnesota for $40 and I knew right away it was coming home with me.  It's top is worn barn wood and the edges and legs are layered with white, turquoise and blue paint that time and wear has revealed.  Would I consider repainting it?  Not a chance! 

Do you have a favorite piece or is it waiting for you at Re-Treat? "Weathered Charm" is throughout the store this month with some great furniture pieces, yard art and more. In addition we consigned local artist Dominic Fredianelli to create some spring inspired original artwork including canvas paintings and graffiti art turned into pillows.  As always, one-of-kind items and artwork, come early and come back as we restock throughout the weekend.   

As always, more pictures can be found on facebook.

Re-Blooming - April 4,5 & 6

Last year we had yard art out for our April Re-Treat, this year piles of snow remain....  So much for our theme this month. That's okay, there is plenty of bright colors inside re-treat to make you think of Spring.  And I won't forget to mention we have have candles that smell like fresh cut grass for those of you that are really needing a pick me up.  Our vendors rocked it this month with lots of great fun things, big and small. 

Hope you can join us as we will be celebrating our 3rd Anniversay of bringing you a monthy Re-Treat from the everyday store.  We will have goodies out on Thursday night for all who can stop by.  Open Thursday 5-8pm, Friday 10am-6pm and Saturday 10am-4pm.

At least that's what we are told.  See you this weekend......

    

"Longing for Spring" - March 7, 8 & 9

"Spring is when you feel like whistling even with a shoe full of slush." ~ Doug Larson

It's March and it's the time when everyone starts looking forward to and longing for spring. We've survived the cold, yet beautiful winter months enjoying the falling snow but now it's time for think about flowers, birds singing and bright colors. We've got lots of fun things this month to get your home looking and feeling like the upcoming spring. New bark cloth pillows, a great mint green table with floral chairs, a room of all white, Easter goodies and of course much much more. Have I mentioned we are longing for spring? Come and enjoy exploring Re-Treat's vision for Spring this weekend. Hope to see all our Re-Treat family old and new!

"Re-Fresh and Re-Claim" - February 7, 8 & 9

Yes, we are back for the new year.  Since December we have been cleaning, touching up, repainting the kitchen walls and finding new goodies in preparation for this week...Re-Fresh and Re-Claim.  We have lots of new things, some new vendors and new vignettes of course.  Please come in from the cold and see if you can claim something for yourself or find some ideas to freshen up your home for spring. You'll find a little valentine's love and a little whimsy, mixed with a dose of spring.

"Winter Wishes" - November 29, 30 & December 1

“Winter is the time for comfort, for good food and warmth, for the touch of a friendly hand and for a talk beside the fire: it is the time for home.” ― Edith Sitwell

 Re-Treat is here, already, again and for two weekends this month! We will be open Thursday night 5-8pm, Friday 10am-6pm and Saturday 10am-4pm and we'll do it all over again next week. It's a focus on home this month with holiday vignettes throughout the store. It's hard not to think about the holidays as the outside is blanketed with snow and the lake effect machine seems to have been turned on. Come on in from the cold to "Winter Wishes" and enjoy exploring our little wonderland at Re-Treat. Oh - and don't forget to do it all over again next week at "More Please"!

Wishing you and yours a happy and healthy holiday season. And just a reminder - Re-Treat closes up for the month of January. Yes, we know you'll miss us but we use January to clean, purge, paint and to get ready for a new year.

"Holly Daze" - November 1, 2 & 3

Every year, I think we all wish the warm fall days would last for ever. I'm afraid it 'tis the change of seasons. Yes snow is falling... You know what that means? Re-Treat Design is all decked out for winter. We've got a little bit of Thanksgiving and a whole lot of Christmas, complete with an all white room. Hope you can join us for our Holly Daze weekend. We have warm scarflettes, funky snowmen, winter candle scents, homemade dog biscuits, and much, much more so you can start checking friends and family off the holiday shopping list.
