great Pride!

Meet AmySue...

AmySue is a graduate of Fine Arts from the College of Notre Dame.
She went on to teach Art for several years before taking time off to raise her
family. Now that AmySue's 3 boys are older and in school, she has returned
back to the classroom in Arizona and quilts in her spare time...

We are proud to have such a wonderful person/quilter designing for us...I
can't wait to see what she does next !

Meet  Me (Kerri)

I am the Owner of The Broken Barn and also the Candle Maker, Floral
Designer, etc...I have too many hats to mention but I enjoy everything I do and
would not change one thing!

When I'm not busy with my shop I'm home with my husband Jeff and our 2
dogs tending to my gardens and keeping up with the farm... You can find me
either helping split wood for the winter or planting trees with my husband for
the wildlife... but, if I'm no where to be found at all then I'm most likely hiding in
my office working on the website or another idea for my shop...

We have many others that have such great talents and I'm proud to display their
items in my shop...

Meet Candy: Candy does wonders with glass and ceramic tiles creating her one
of a kind Mosaic creations...she also re purposes old lumber and other materials  to
make custom and functional  bird houses...










Meet Annette: Annette is a retired Social worker who's passion is creating
her own Jewelry Line...Annette retired sometime ago due to heath  but wasn't going
to give up on her dreams to design and make her own Jewelery...










In Addition to all these great people, we also have some companies that we buy
from who are also proud to stamp their items Made In America...

Signs:
We buy from 3 different American companies...so no worries about lead in the paint...







Candle & Tart Warmers
Our Warmers come from a company that has been in business and employing
American workers since the 1960's...









Pottery:
Our Pottery comes from 2 different companies, one out of Northern Wisconsin which
is all done by a retired professor and his daughter,
and the other from Ohio...










Wall Hangings/Pictures:
There are 4 different companies that I just love to buy from...2 from Wisconsin, 1
right here in Illinois and 1 in Ohio....

Barn...if you have a complaint or compliment please feel free to send it

contact info if you would like for them to respond...responses are up to
the individuals and are not for us to decide as we are not their

Meet  Dana...

My name is Dana Stockton, I started my hair accessory business last year
after I started making hair bows for my daughter, Laynie. After I realized how
much I enjoyed doing it I began selling and expanding the products even
more! Laynie Bug's Bows started with hair bows and flower clips. Now I offer
custom clothing, tutus, costumes and more!I really enjoy what I do and have
fun making things for little girls (and boys)!
