Along the edges, you’ll find gentle curves where the tree’s sapwood once flowed, adding organic character to the piece. The mantel’s color varies across its surface, a hallmark of reclaimed wood that speaks to its rich past. Warm tones blend and shift, creating depth and visual interest throughout the reclaimed wood mantel. Cracks have developed over time, indicative of the mantel’s solid construction and authenticity.

The original barn was built by German immigrant farmers who settled in Cologne, Minnesota in the late 1800s. They built towns like Hamburg and New Germany nearby, creating a hub of German-American culture. With circle-sawn beams, mostly round nails, and a straight roof, this particular barn can be dated to close to the turn of the century. In 2020, this barn was the last barn taken down by our old friend Harry. He passed away in 2022. The pictures are from 2012. Harry was a crazy character filled with adventure and insane stories. He is dearly missed.

About the tag – White Eggs. This advertisement for White Egg laying chickens dates back to 1941. In the modern grocery store, our eggs are very consistent — all white or occasionally brown eggs. However, on the farm, eggs come in a whole variety of colors. If you’ve never seen them, just do a quick Google Image Search for “Farm Eggs.” They are beautiful.
