About Hometraditions
The Shop
Hometraditions was showcased in an 1875 house
sitting just on the edge of the downtown business district of
Findlay Ohio. Restoration was done on this "farm" house that was
built before many of the downtown buildings. The house has good
"bones" although it needed all new electrical and plumbing. Some
newer walls were removed to return it to it's original design,
and crumbling plaster replaced.
The shop was filled (two floors) with furniture and home
accessories, handpicked for the Traditional/Victorian and Shabby
Chic home.
UPDATE: The shop is now closed due to a transfer, however items
from Hometraditions are still available from the website |

This is a vernacular style home with ornate gingerbread framing the
front porch. The original home was built prior to the Victorian
period. A room and the embellishments came later. Spring bulbs and
perennials flourish in the brick lined flower beds along with a lavender
lilac and rose of sharon. |
|
We were lucky to have a great building to start out with. The oak and
ash floors were scrubbed and polished. The walls were faux painted using
paint, glaze and a terry cloth towel. |
|
We offered antiques and accessories. Shown here is a mantle from Langes
Antiques, Hamler Ohio. Florals courtesy of Langes as well.
|
|
Along with antiques, we offered wicker and wire furniture, lamps,
pictures and accessories. I tend to lean toward the
Traditional/Historical style with accessories. |

This great old counter came from a general store in NW Ohio. It is pine
with beadboard siding. |
|
This room was set up as the dining room. The table is set with
blue and white chintz and open-work china, and 18th century
(reproduction) silverware. |

The Christmas room was entered through french doors found in the
basement during restoration. I couldn't resist putting them back up! |
|
This room was created in June. If you're going to do Christmas in June,
you'd better be serious about it. The themed trees are filled with
ornaments from Old World Christmas, Christopher Radko, Midwest of Cannon
Falls and Bavarian Heritage...so far. |
|
This barrister book case is filled with Staffordshire chintz ware, and
Ino Schaller Santa candy containers. |
|
The walls in this room were faux painted too. The floors are ash in this
room. |

I love to showcase artist pieces. Shown here is the Santa-Sampler line
by Diane Cheffy. She collects antique candy molds and puts them to good
use casting her santas. Creating them from start to finish, she is
meticulous with the detail and special touches. Each piece is named,
numbered, dated and signed by Diane. |
