A LITTLE SHOPPING IN FRANKLIN

Donna Cronk photo /// I spotted this little composition in Salvage Sisters in Franklin, Indiana on Sunday. I liked the bouquet of brushes contrasted with the rustic door behind them.

When we visit Terri's lake house on Cordry Lake near Nineveh, we pass through Franklin. You probably know the town for Franklin College, but you may not know that Franklin has a vibrant downtown with a number of sweet little gift and antique shops, along with plenty of what-nots, just waiting to be upcycled.

We stopped in Sunday on our way home with only two shops open, but they were well worth our stopping. There was this one, where I found the mug mats. Far more absorbent than the stone variety.

Then we went to the next shop, next door, I believe, Salvage Sisters. And no, the gals in the photo are not the salvage sisters but we do like to salvage!

I found the lamp in The Thyme and the easel in Salvage Sisters. Just a little spruce-up of our hallway table which was originally my Grandma Jobe's, then Mom's, and now ours.
