As always, new Vintage treasures are coming through our garage doors everyday....

"Urban Barn" Family..Miss Sandra Finn

Sandra.
Her name is as elegant and beautiful as her personality and style.
Sandra's style is unforgettable and recognizable as Industrial meets functional design and display.
Her color palette is linen white, taupe and feminine gray with a splash of masculine black while maintaining her signature polished sense of balance and proportion.
Sandra joined "Urban Barn" before the big move to Escondido.
Her clients come in everyday to see what magnificent piece she scoured the streets for to repurpose into Vintage everyday use.
Her smile, grace and beauty add an irreplaceable charm and certainly a reason to keep visiting our "Urban Barn" family.
Sweet Sandra.

It's just around the corner....

"Urban Street Faire"

Frilly. Fabulous. Fun.

Don't you just love to add new touches to your home that update it from season to season and keep the space feeling fresh?  I do. 

I took a step back today to absorb the new goodies and was so so so pleased with everyone's picks and fresh eye on the current trends.  You must come see the new industrial tables that are so chic.  
 Mix-and-match with some tattered French chairs and you have a dining space that your friends and family will never want to leave.  Aren't some of the best meals shared around a casual table with impromptu guests?

  We'll hope you'll come be our guest during the street faire...we promise to 
treat you well and keep you entertained.

MIss Marah Visits "Urban Barn"....


Nationally known Marah Johnson stopped by to check out our new digs.
Marah's papers and creations have been as popular and sold out as soon as she creates them....
We are so lucky...
 She practically lives in our backyard in Vista, Ca.
 You know that means we are up to planning something BIG!

"Urban Barn" Family...Miss Sherry Mattia Welch









Miss Glamerella Junk herself, our Sherry.
Her personality sparkles more than the beautiful jewels in any of her creations....
From hand-dyed slips, vintage gem encrusted flowers or her grungy glittery t-shirts we all know and love...
This sista is a non-stop creative thought in motion...
Sherry's laugh is contagious, her warmth has been a constant over the years with Linda at the Barn.
Sherry is unstoppable and has received national coverage in Somerset's "Jewelry Affaire" magazine for her one of a kind crystal neclaces.

WE all need Sherry's joy of life, art and FUN....
Love you, Girl....

Fashion, Friends & Lots of FUN!


Last Friday's "Sex in the City" party was a smashing, sexy soiree.
Friends sipped on frozen bueberry martinis as the Morrocan theme was displayed throughout the barn.
Thank you to every single lady who showed up...of course everyone's battery on their camera was dead but I think we will have a few shots later this weekend from Miss Donna.
We will also be staying open late this Friday night as well until 7:00pm with some tasty refreshments and fabulous new merchandise for you to scoop up...
