The Planted Earth Shop~ Orem, Utah







We found this delightfully unexpected inspiration along the road on our travels around the Southwest. Definitely off the beaten track. We obtained the local antiques advertising publication, took our chances, and struck gold!

Planted Earth has everything I love in a vintage shop under one roof. Garden antiques greet you on the front porch, with beautiful plantings flowering in the door yard beyond.














Here are a few samples of the garden wares. . . .








I came this close to hauling this gorgeous mailbox home.



More delights when you enter the pretty front door. . . .







My very first impression was of all the fabulous vintage lighting hanging all over the place.



Lovely shell boxes.




Cut glass lamps.









A bit of silver and ironstone.




This one came home with me. I wonder if I would have been able to resist it some other time of year?




Baskets galore!





Sweet vintage linen. . . .















Chippy white cupboards and shelves. . . .









Darling baby things. . . .














Check out this fabulous vintage lamp shade! (This is actually a hanging fixture.)




Gorgeous antique lace. . . .








and satin. . . .




Lots of glamour. . . .




And tons of bling!!!









So much fun! I practically floated out the door! 
I hope you're finding inspiration somewhere too. . . .

Thanks so much for stopping by!
Hasta la vista!

Jacqueline

  9. Wow. I wouldn't have known where to start and would probably have still been there two weeks later! I definitely would have needed U-haul to get me home. I hope you came out with a good few things? Joan

  17. It's so fun to go shopping with you. You find the best places! I would have been in hog heaven in there. I love that crazy light fixture, and the garden stuff... so great. And, yes... i think that little ironstone bowl would have gone home with you any time of the year!

  18. Isn't it wonderful finding little out of the way shops while traveling. I think that is one of the reasons I do so enjoy it.
