I love this!

July 6, 2011   By Becca 1 Comment

I took my dog to the dog groomer, in downtown Snohomish, the other day.


Snohomish is a small historic town, down by the Snohomish River. It’s filled with antique shops, specialty shops, bakeries, and my dog groomer.

Snohomish was settled in the 1850’s and established as a logging community shortly after. Don’t you just love small towns with history?

When my grandma was a teenager, she lived in Snohomish.  She graduated from Snohomish High School and her father was a Presbyterian minister at one of the churches in town.  I have always imagined that the church looked something like the one below.  My grandma says the church is no longer in the town.

Anyway… back to my story.
I was taking my dog to the dog groomer, in Downtown Snohomish, the other day and saw this sign in the window of one of the little shops.


 
It looked so cute, mixed in with all of the antiques and vintage linens.  I knew I had to have it.  I’ve been loving all of the subway art that I have been seeing all over the place lately.  The big sign (that I really wanted) was $90.  The small sign was only $22.  Guess which one I bought.  Yep, the small one.  It’s perfect in the main floor bathroom.
 
I love small towns… and my new little treasure.
 
Happy shopping!

    Oh my goodness!!! Honeymoon flashback!

    My husband and I honeymooned in Woodinville at the Willows Lodge and someone at one of the nearby wineries suggested we spend an afternoon in her hometown, Snohomish. We had such a lovely afternoon; walking along the river, shopping in all the little shops, stuffing our faces at the brew pub & eating desserts at a cute little bakery.

    This post made me so happy, remembering that wonderful day! :)
