Window Shopping – Post & Beam Reclamation

I love nothing more than strolling around our neighborhood with El Granto & Odin. Coffee in hand, walking wherever our feet will take us. We like to stroll and visit new areas, window shop, and often come home with some new purchases.

One of my favorite places to window shop is the Junction. There are some great shops, and two of my absolute fave shops; Smash and Post & Beam Reclamation.

This past weekend I was wandering through Post & Beam and thought I’d share some of the awesome things I spied there. I would have loved to have brought home every last one of these pieces, but alas our budget is being directed at the coffee bar & backyard this spring.

So here are some of my picks.

Heres a closer detail of one of the iron orbs. Wouldnt this be great with a hanging fixture and edison bulb? (or take a cue from Restoration Hardware and hang a small chandelier inside)

Wouldnt this lantern be gorgeous hanging from the ceiling of a lovely gazebo? Or as the entryway light for a coach house.

Lovinf this simple but classic mantle. Made we want to bring it home even though the storefront doesnt have a fireplace! Would be cute with stacked logs in the hearth

Arnt these lovely? Would be great feature in a stately kitchen

These lights would be great in a powder room or boys bedroom or office (although those bulbs are all wrong)

  2. I love your industrial reclaimed wood/metal stools/end tables. Cost for a pair? I would need them shipped to Oregon. Dimensions? Can you email other pics of them?

    Thank you and happy 2014!
