Terry and I were so excited when we heard that our ‘blog’ friend Janet from The Empty Nest was opening a store on Main Street in Warrenton, VA. We couldn’t wait to see all her beautifully painted furniture and Annie Sloan Chalk Paint in action.
I was in the same area last week {working on my Mother’s Work/Craft Room} and so we made a shopping event out of visiting the store during her opening and finally got to meet Janet in person. {If you don’t know her blog, please visit her HERE.}
She is as uplifting and radiant as you would expect from reading The Empty Nest and her new store is filled with all sorts of beautifully redone furniture and other wonderful goodies.
She is a stockist for Annie Sloan and regularly gives workshops {I am planning another trip so I can make sure to attend the next workshop} and is a wealth of knowledge about furniture and paint.
Each piece of furniture is unique, but all are beautiful.
She also sells some fabulous finds from other small businesses like these delicious candles. I was so overwhelmed deciding among all the delicious smells, I somehow didn’t buy one, but will be loading up on my next visit.
Even her checkout table was gorgeous. I think I will steal her fabric treatment style for my Mom’s sewing table.
And, a wine rack to hold paper rolls–wrapping paper? Art paper? She has creative ideas everywhere you look.
Its exciting to see and hear about all the new creatively inspired businesses coming to Old Town Warrenton. Make sure you stop by and visit Janet and the Empty Nest at 92 Main Street, Old Town Warrenton, Virginia.
{Warrenton is located approximately 40 minutes outside Washington DC, read more HERE and HERE}
Good luck Janet! We’ll definitely be stopping in again soon.
XO,









Ooh, that is close to my new neighborhood! I’ll have to go check her out.
Warrenton has lots of great little shops and Janet’s new spot just helps add to the charm…
Congrats to Janet…I will be sure to stop in her shop when I am in the area!!….
So, if you want to give them a gift that they will appreciate for years to come, a slow cooker is an awesome
option. Take this 5 minutes to go ahead and clean up the slow cooker.
On the other hand, high setting will make it cook faster, which
is for only 3 to 4 hours.
Hi colleagues, its impressive piece of writing regarding cultureand completely defined, keep it up all the time.
