I’ve got a second lake house update for you this week! I shared my mom’s vintage inspired guest room at the lake and now I have an update in our family room, a framed vintage Rocco feed sack.
My mom gave me several Rocco feed sacks and I picked the one with the most vivid color to frame for the lake.
I really like how it looks in this corner of our family room.

Rocco Feeds is still in operation. The feed that was in this bag was purchased in Waynesboro, Virginia.
I had a Goodwill found paint-by-number in this corner but much prefer the bold look of this feed sack in this spot.

I had this feed sack framed locally at The Framery on Memorial Avenue. They also framed the 1943 “Our America” vintage poster series that I used in this room at the lake.
I wonder over the years other ways that people made use of feed sacks from Rocco.
I used to love to go to Farm Bureau in Waynesboro with my dad or grandparents. In my mind I can still smell the feed. As a teen, I liked to shop the horse section and loved that I could charge what I purchased to my dad’s account. He was sweet and never complained about my purchases.
If you like feed sacks, enjoy a few ideas that some blogging friends contributed.
