Antique Farmhouse Bedroom Tour | Red Land Cotton

August 23, 2019 · In: family, Farmhouse, homemaking, videos

When we first moved into our home, I had no idea what my style was. But over the years I’ve come to learn that, naturally, farmhouse style is my style. So we recently re-did our bedroom and turned it into an antique farmhouse bedroom. We are lovers of all things old and antique, so it was only natural for us to combine our two styles into one!

From the antique dresser and wash stand, to the brand new Red Land Cotton bedding mirrored after the 1920s, our room is ready to be toured! If you want to see it more in depth, watch the video at the end of this blog.

My husband is my most favorite person ever. Not just because he’s my husband and he brings me coffee and donuts when I’ve had a long day covered in baby spit up. Or because he is just super awesome and handsome. But also because he brings me antique treasures that other people just toss to the side.

We knew we wanted our bedroom to be minimalistic and simple. But we also knew we wanted antique pieces in there.

Be sure to check out the special DISCOUNT CODE for Red Land Cotton bedding at the end of this blog post!

The first antique farmhouse bedroom piece we found was a beautiful tiger wood dresser. More than likely out of the 1940s or so, this dresser is my favorite piece out of all the pieces. It also holds my very purged lot of clothes. I had to purge a lot to get everything to fit into here!

Confession, though. I still have some clothes in the baby’s dresser.

You can hear more about the individual stories behind these pieces by watching the video below. Or by clicking here.

The next antique farmhouse bedroom piece is this regal secretary desk. It’s efficiently used as a statement piece with some of my favorite old books. But it also became home to our deodorants, lotions, and business items.

I’ll admit, I wasn’t in love with this piece when he brought it home, but it fits absolutely perfectly in this space.

The final antique farmhouse bedroom piece isn’t pictured here, because, well, I was too lazy to photograph it when I realized I didn’t have a picture…amen. But you’ll have to take my word for it that it’s a gorgeously simple wash stand. Because, what antique farmhouse bedroom didn’t have a wash stand?! I do need to find a pitcher and wash basin for it still.

Let’s get real though, we all know that the main part of a farmhouse bedroom is the bed and bedding. Bedding in a bedroom pulls everything together, because it is the main focus of any bedroom space. Because of this, it was important for me to not only have something American made, but also a product that supports another farm family.

As I researched I found that Red Land Cotton is an American made company owned by a beautiful farming family. They grow their own cotton and make their own linens right in the good ol’ state of Alabama. Not only are their products American made and of quality, they are also some of the softest linens you’ll find.

The ticking duvet cover was incredibly easy to fill. In fact, I was wearing our (then) 6 week old while putting our bedding on. He quite loves the bedding as well. It’s the place we wake up in the morning for the first snuggles and nursing of the day. Knowing that he’s laying on bedding that is from farm to home really makes it all the more special.

Red Land Cotton’s sheets are so amazingly soft. I was concerned they might be scratchy since they came out of the package very stiff, but after a good wash, they are the softest sheets we own. I especially appreciate that they are a natural color–no dyes or artificial ingredients. Just beautiful, pure cotton.

CLICK HERE and use code FEWELLHOMESTEAD20 to receive a 20% discount on your order at Red Land Cotton!

From a bed sheet passed down from the 1920s, Red Land Cotton reverse engineered the original weave construction and yarn size to bring you linens that are truly heirloom-inspired.

Their bed sheets are unlike anything that is currently on the market. Not only are they exclusively a farm-to-home offering, but these linens are heirloom pieces, entitled to the same reverence that bed linens of yesteryear were due. Their bed linens are recreations of the bed linens of our ancestors from almost a century ago.

This was the selling point for me. Talk about antique farmhouse bedroom–I was sold!

Processing day doesn’t have to feel like chaos. A Processing day doesn’t have to feel like chaos.

After years of raising and processing our own poultry, I’ve learned that most processing-day disasters don’t happen because of a lack of skill—they happen because of a lack of preparation.

The dull knife.
The empty propane tank.
The missing shrink bags.
The realization halfway through the day that you should have bought twice as much ice.
The stopping a hundred times to deal with your kids wishing you had an outside sink to wash your hands off in.

Sound familiar? 😅

Whether you’re processing your first batch of meat birds or your fiftieth, small mistakes can cost you hours of work, increase stress, and even affect the quality of the meat you’re putting in your freezer.

In my latest blog post, I’m sharing 15 processing day mistakes that waste time and meat, along with practical tips to help you have a smoother, more organized harvest day.

A few of the mistakes I cover:

✔️ Starting too late in the day
✔️ Processing too many birds at once
✔️ Skipping feed withdrawal
✔️ Forgetting packaging supplies
✔️ Not having enough help
✔️ Waiting until the end to clean up

The truth is, processing day is usually won—or lost—the days before processing. A little preparation goes a long way toward making the day more efficient, less stressful, and much more enjoyable.

Have you ever had a processing-day mistake that taught you a lesson the hard way? Share it below—we’ve all been there. 👇

Culture has been the topic in a lot of personal co Culture has been the topic in a lot of personal conversations recently. The culture of our society. The culture of the church. The culture of the family. In fact, I should totally talk about this topic more in-depth soon, and how it all coincides together. But today I am reminded of a conversation my husband and I had a few weeks back.

As we were talking about the “last days”, I posed this question—what if culture goes back to Bible culture and it’s all literal? 

We live in a very unique world and country. We expect none of the things we use and love everyday to disappear. But if there’s one thing I know and have witnessed, it’s that all of this is so fragile that it could disappear overnight. Literally. Within seconds. Gone. And suddenly a modern culture would wake up to a culture that pre-dates the 1800s. 

And so my question is this—what if God is preparing His church culture (there’s a shift happening) so that the church will be prepared for the societal culture shock when it happens? 

We’d all be preparing a lot differently, wouldn’t we?
For years, I’ve talked about fragile supply chains For years, I’ve talked about fragile supply chains, rising input costs, foreign dependence, and the vulnerabilities built into our modern food system.

Now, the USDA has confirmed the first domestic case of New World Screwworm in a Texas calf. The screw worm is a parasite that is flesh eating in nature. 

If you’ve listened to my interview with AJ Richards, you may remember him sounding the alarm about this months ago. Many people dismissed it as just another agricultural issue happening somewhere south of the border. But AJ explained something important—this is a food system concern, and it could cause a collapse of the already historically low beef herd in the USA.

These farmers are already facing years of drought, high feed costs, regulatory pressure, and economic uncertainty. When breeding stock leaves the system, rebuilding takes years—not months.

Now add a parasite that can rapidly spread through livestock populations and historically cost producers enormous losses. It may not affect the local small farmer who can monitor his herds easier (and probably has healthier herds). But it will absolutely affect bigger herds that are already struggling.

This is why I continually encourage people to think beyond the grocery store. The big ag food system is not one giant crisis away from collapse. It’s thousands of small pressures accumulating at the same time. Together, they create a system that becomes increasingly expensive, increasingly centralized, and increasingly vulnerable. 

Know your local farmer, raise some of your own food, learn skills, build community networks, and create resilient local food economies before they’re needed.

This is why so many of us have spent years talking about food sovereignty and homesteading. Not because we expect disaster around every corner, but because history repeatedly shows that resilient communities weather storms better than dependent ones.

Whether it’s pest, drought, inflation, fertilizer shortages, disease, or a disruption we haven’t seen yet, the lesson remains the same—the future belongs to communities that can feed themselves. And every year, that lesson becomes harder to ignore.
I have nothing to say. Just a pretty photo dump f I have nothing to say.

Just a pretty photo dump for old time IG sake.

The era where we followed homesteaders and farmers because their content was beautiful and practical and took us to a peaceful place. 

This is my peaceful place.
Most homesteaders raise meat chickens. Very few e Most homesteaders raise meat chickens.

Very few ever stop to ask, “What happens if I can’t buy chicks next year?”

For generations, families didn’t depend on hatcheries to fill their freezer. They developed breeding systems that allowed them to raise meat birds year after year, right from their own homestead.

That’s exactly why we began experimenting with a two-breed meat chicken system.

The goal isn’t to compete with a Cornish Cross. You can’t compete when it comes to saving time and money. The goal is resilience.

A good breeding program allows you to maintain your own flock, hatch your own chicks, improve genetics over time, and continue producing quality meat birds without relying on outside sources. It puts one more piece of your food security back into your own hands.

This approach combines the strengths of two different breeds—one contributing growth and carcass qualities, the other contributing fertility, mothering ability, hardiness, and long-term sustainability. The result is a practical system that can provide meat chickens year-round while allowing you to retain breeding stock for future generations.

If you’ve ever wondered how homesteaders raised meat chickens before modern hatcheries, or if you’ve been looking for a more sustainable long-term poultry plan, this article is for you. It utilizes modern Cornish cross broilers, while having a dual-purpose system back up.
