Bring northwoods winter into your kitchen or cabin.
This Barnbeam Bird Buffet design shows a bright Blue Jay perched on a snow-covered stump, guarding a burlap sack of Nature’s Mix – Since 1892. In the distance, a classic Wisconsin barn and silo sit along a winding snowy lane under a pastel winter sky.
Lettering at the bottom reads:
Merrill Grain & Provision Co. – Merrill, Wis.
Soft brushwork, warm browns, and gently weathered edges give the piece the feel of a hand-painted feed-and-seed sign that’s hung in the same spot for generations.
