Fall Decorating

Believe it or not, I am actually looking forward to Fall. As much as I enjoy the less hectic days of Summer, there is something about being in a routine that I like. And I also like the cool, crisp weather of Fall. It is a great time of year to freshen up a room with a new coat of paint, a new pair of curtains, or a new arrangement of furniture.

We have a great assortment of Homespun Curtains that would be a great start to changing up a room for the new season. I am thinking about starting in my living room and taking it a room at a time. We also have Wrought Iron Curtain Rods and Tiebacks to complete the look. Happy Decorating!

Primitive Furniture - NEW!

Our line of  Primitive Furniture is made in America by skilled craftsmen who take the time to enhance each piece with a primitive paint finish.  Each table, cupboard, bucket bench and shelf is made to look like an antique, making it the perfect addition for your colonial home decor.


Try combining a primitive table and cupboard or looking glass for a great look in an entry way. Find a place to display a primitive bucket bench to show off your antique collectibles. Redware and stoneware pottery look especially terrific displayed in these primitive pieces of furniture. A collection of antique pewter would be absolutely beautiful in any cupboard - particularly in the black finish!

1/2 tsp. lemon juice
1 tsp. grated onion

Combine ingredients; pour into a shallow baking dish or a deep-dish pie plate.  Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes.  Serve with water crackers or thinly sliced baguette.

NEW - Timberline Wooden Chandelier

Timberline Wooden Chandelier with Shades

This is one of our newest chandeliers - its design was inspired to provide better lighting over longer furnishings in your home, such as your dinning room table, your kitchen island, or even the pool table in the den.

While the recessed lighting in my kitchen provides ample task lighting, it does not provide an aesthetic value.  This light will provide both general room lighting and the needed task lighting at an island for preparing food and for children doing their homework.  Any one else re-thinking the light in their kitchen?

You can custom order this light to just about any color combination you can think of.

Come visit us at http://www.thetinbin.com/ and find the colonial lighting and home decor that you love - just in time to decorate for the holidays!
