12 American Farmhouse Decor Inspirations to Steal! is the fruit of a trip to Urban Farmgirl’s charming shop in Rockford, IL. It’s my favorite source for fresh, whimsical, farmhouse style decor for good reason. While it boasts lovely home decor, creations from local artists, candles, vases, and unique gifts, it also offers a sweet neighborly retreat.
Like what you see here? You can shop Urban Farmgirl online or email about availability! Within the walls of an historic building which was once a grocery store, you can glimpse the coziness of late winter but also taste the promise of spring! I always come away from this shop feeling inspired to inject a measure of its warmth, whimsy and optimism into my own home.
