Grand Opening Gives Back!
Honor our veterans
Farmhouse Primitiveslocated at 400 Fairfield Avenue will be paying homage to our Americana heritage with an old fashion patriotic summer evening party - complete with free grilled hot dogs & ice cold lemonade! They will also be honoring our veterans by hosting a fundraiser along with their neighbor, INTERIOR VISIONS, accepting your generous donation for Honor Flight Tri-State!  Honor Flight ambassador, Dee Daniels will be on hand to answer any questions about this worthy organization that sends veterans on "once in a lifetime" emotional filled flights to Washington D.C.
FARMHOUSE PRIMITIVES & INTERIOR VISIONS will be proudly donating 20% of their total sales for the day to the fundraiser!  Both merchants will be fully stocked for the special occasion with hundreds of unique selections for the stylish home or garden. Please save the date, gather some friends and come down and support the cause. With each charitable donation or purchase made, you will be registered for an opportunity to win numerous door prizes all evening long!

FARMHOUSE PRIMITIVES is the latest of several new additions to historic Bellevue's charming and quaint vibrant shopping district. They feature new and vintage rusticated "farmhouse style" home décor and specialty products Made in the USA - especially hand-picked for casual living. Their exclusive Americana themed collection features "comfortable gatherings for the hearth and soul." Their diverse "pickings" include hand made and painted primitive and industrial styled furniture, whimsical folk artisan discoveries, custom made toss pillows - wood-turned chandeliers and accent lamps, casual table wares and linens and historical books and memorabilia.

 

Bellevue's independently-owned shops and galleries, fine eateries and bars hope you will share this monthly e-newsletter with your friends and family. You will find a link below to make it easy.  Thanks!
