Hi friends, I’m Susie! 🌸📜
I recently opened this little digital corner to share the things that bring me joy, and I figured it was the perfect time to share a proper hello!
Over here at @flowersandfoundthings, I’ll be documenting my journey through slow living right here in Kentucky. You can expect to see plenty of:
🍃 Fresh garden blooms & woodland finds
🏺 Antiques, thrifted treasures, & unique history
🏡 Curating a collected, Kentucky home

Some of my favorite finds come with a story. 🤎

This old wooden bread table was salvaged from an abandoned home. The gentleman who owned it told me his grandfather made it—and that history made me love it even more.

Now it has a place in our home, with a cream pumpkin, autumn leaves, and vintage dishes. A little fall decorating, a little cottage charm, and years of character in those worn boards.

Swipe to the last photo to see where it began.

Would you have brought this table home? Tell me in the comments! 🍂

Follow along for vintage finds, cozy cottage corners, and the stories behind them.

Channeling my inner Richard Gilmore on the route today. 🍂☕️ Stars Hollow has absolutely nothing on a Kentucky holler in mid-October.
Swipe to see the cozy views from my walk today—number 5 looks straight out of a movie set. 🏠🍁
Save this for your fall mood board 📌

They don’t build things like this anymore. 🍂✨
If you love Appalachian history and the quiet beauty of Kentucky slow living, swipe through to see the weathered details on this hidden abandoned barn I found over the weekend.
From the handmade wooden door latches to the massive, ancient vines reclaiming the timber, every inch of this structure tells a story of historic craftsmanship. Look closely and you can even see the old rusted iron hinges still holding strong against the wood.
I’m exploring the backroads of the Bluegrass all season long, documenting hidden woodland treasures, cozy autumn nature aesthetics, and timeless antique rustic craftsmanship.
👉 If you find peace in the quiet, slow-paced side of life, hit follow and join me for more daily wanderings through the hills. 🌲
Which detail feels more magical to you—the twisting vines or the handmade latch? Let me know below! 👇

Nature’s magic is always hiding right beneath our feet. ✨🍄 Found these incredible woodland treasures on a quiet walk. The colors on that pink oyster mushroom look like something straight out of a fairytale.
Slow down and look closely—you never know what you’ll find. 🌿
Which one caught your eye first? 👇

It’s all going to be alright 🤍✨
It is truly amazing what beauty and wonder is right in front of us, if we only slowed down to notice. There is so much peace waiting for us when we step away from the noise.
Save this post for the next time you need a 5-second escape to the woods, and send it to someone who needs a comforting reminder today. 🪵🍂
Which slide brought you the most peace? Let me know 👇

“By the pricking of my thumbs, something wicked this way comes.” 🖤

It’s the season of the witch. 🌙✨

I was outbid on this little girl and kitten picture… then found it today at Goodwill! 🤎 Some things are worth the wait.

And that ornate mirror? It came home with me, too.

Which is your favorite—the picture or the mirror?

Some places don’t ask anything of you.

They simply remind you to slow down.

🍂 Where the quiet heals.

What place feels like that for you?
