Welcome To On The Avenue Home Decor & Gifts. Years ago my husband and I bought our first home. It was a very old home and needed a lot of tender love and care. I had the vision of what I wanted and my husband was able to help me bring it to life. As we began building and creating items for our home, we had another idea..... What if we started our own business and offered our creations to others who share the same love and passion for decorating as we do. Here we are, 17 years later, sharing our creations and designs with friends everywhere.

Something Fun....

This is a FANTASTIC Rocking Chair I found at a thrift store.... Cool Huh??
I couldn't wait to get home and re-finish it. After a few hours of sanding, spraying and distressing - I have a beautiful rocking chair in my front room. And of course, one of Linda Hansen's quilts finishes it off! Thanks Linda -
Just a tip for each of you.... Always think outside the box.
There are so many great things we can do in our homes that personalize them to our families.
We have already spent many hours in this rocking chair!

Betsy Ross Sign.

Thanks - Have a Great Day!!

Summer Signs



Summer Signs
We have a great assortment of Summer Signs.
They have a fabric handle for hanging.
Retail: $24.00
It is hard to see in this picture, but I have this sign hanging on a spindle on the top of my bench.
We make this type of sign for all seasons and holidays. I love to hang them on the top of a chair over a twig wreath. There are so many different ideas. These also match our summer Trio Kits, Post Toppers and Wreath Inserts.

Porch Decorating

We have an old home with a "Big Front Porch". It is really fun to decorate!! I have created this setting right by my front door to welcome our friends and family. We started with a round black table and a high back chair. Both painted black and distressed. Yes, we built the table and chair.
I added potted flowers, birdhouses, a family name plaque, twig & berry wreaths & a big barn star. My little Chlo Bug and her dad built the red birdhouse. It has a small area in the front for birdseed, and yes the birds found it!! Decorating a porch does not have to be hard. If you are having a hard time deciding what to do, let us know. We have built several different styles of tables, chairs & benches for outdoor decor.
We built this one for a good friend of ours. I have notices she has added outdoor pillows on it. It would be a great idea to change the pillow colors for the different seasons. Another thing to think about would be hanging a twig wreath in the center of the beadboard backing. Very Cool!!

Just An Idea.......

We found this old headboard at a thrift store and built it into a bench. Isn't it darling? Every once in a while, Eric will build something just for me.... and this was one of those fun things! I have displayed a quilt, one of my roosters (love them) a pillow and a darling picture of my kiddo's (Love them more). Just a fun thing I thought I would share.

This May Surprise You!!!

Wow, you just never know what the next day will bring!
Our family has some great opportunities before us and we are very excited to take them. Because of these great opportunities.... we will be closing our Logan
- On The Avenue - Store.
HOWEVER......
WE ARE STILL IN BUSINESS!!
The only change is that On The Avenue (On Federal Avenue)
will no longer be open!
We are still making all of the great product that we have over the years. Our post toppers, wreath inserts, trio kits - everything- is still available. We will be updating our blog daily with new items and prices. If you would like to order, please email us or give us a call. Instead of picking up at the store, you will get to take the beautiful drive to Millville. Trust me, you won't mind - it is a beautiful place just a few miles south of Logan. Our product will also be available in many stores throughout Utah and Idaho.
We have our web-site -
that is in the process of being updated with a new product.
We will still be making furniture, shelves, magnetboards, frames, holiday decor and SO MUCH MORE! If you have any questions or would like information about ordering, please feel free to call me at 435-755-8471 or email me at ontheavenuelogan@gmail.com.
We thank each of you for shopping in our store. I know I can speak for the previous owners who started On The Avenue many years ago, when I say - It has been a pleasure!! Getting to know so many of you is truly a blessing and we look forward to getting to know many more of you.
We will be having a HUGE MOTHER'S DAY/CLOSING SALE!!!
Wednesday - Saturday from 10:00 a.m. - 6:00 p.m. We will close our doors when everything is gone. All of our product left in the store will be on sale. Many of our crafters are also lowering prices on their inventory. It is a great time to shop for Mother's Day. Thanks again and hope to see you this week!!!
