About
Welcome to Post Road! My name is Heather Anderson, the owner of Post Road Vintage, mom to 5 lil kiddos, and wife to one very patient guy!
Post Road Vintage was born out of my love for all things vintage, antique, and handmade. My hopes and dreams for my business are that I inspire others to create a home for their story to shine. A place for family to come together and marvel at all that is well and good. A chance to enjoy life’ simple blessings. I believe my handmade heirlooms represent all of these things. While in the end they are only material items they are also reminders of life’s imperfect simplicity and beauty. It is the honor of a lifetime to inspire others while helping to support my family with my creative gifts.
What inspires me-
I LOVE the simplicity and beauty found in farmhouse living so much of my work is inspired by this. I am also inspired by nature, old houses, and anything with a history. I don’t believe in perfection so I design all my items around this mantra. I am all about embracing the simple, pretty, and good.
What about you? What inspires you? Do you also love farmhouse decorating?
Let me know! I’d love to meet ya! Join me for ‘tea’ on my Facebook Page HERE and let’s get acquainted 
Other randomness about me:
I LOVE food.
I am the oldest of 14 kids.
I love to read.
My ‘big helper’ (the oldest) just went to kindergarten.
I love to dream.
I love my garden.
I have a newborn baby in heaven.
I miss her.
I love camping.
(or at least I used to before cramming so many kids in a tent) LOL
I hate dislike cleaning.
Yep, pretty much sums up my life in a nutshell

Came across your blog AND etsy shop just recently. Love your creations with the blue glass jars and your coat/hat racks. Isn’t Annie Sloan paint and waxes just THE BEST? I’ve painted several small items now with the Old White using both white and dark waxes on vanity stools, small tables and chairs. I’m getting ready to paint a large piece that could be used as a headboard in the Paris Grey with the white wax. Just waiting for the weather to warm up a bit so I can paint outside
Your table is fabulous that you painted with Annie Sloan paints/waxes.
Hey, Heather, I love seeing how you decorate your home. But I am compelled to answer your question: No. I don’t. Love decorating. I asked my kids, “Would you rather have pictures on the walls, or would you rather be allowed to do headstands on the couch?” (I asked this, because every picture I have EVER put on my walls has gotten kicked down, or knocked down by basketballs or such, and the frames and glass smashed.) Maybe someday.
Too funny Mari! My boys are getting bigger which means more mass = more destruction! I try to stick to garage sale and thrifted decorations that don’t break the bank (or my heart!) if they break! But when the baby learns to walk.. watch out
Being a transplanted Midwesterner living in Southern California, I love and long for farmhouse style. Your artistic eye captures it beautifully.
Blush* Why thank you Deborah! I’m glad you’re here

Heather, I have fell in love with your blog and ideas. I was a recent recipient of the Leibster Blog Award.

Hi Heather, great meeting you in our photo class, i love your blog and I love those soap dispensers! I’ll be back soon, I’m just hopping by to say hello to everyone! COe see me, lillyslace.blogspot.com!
Hi! I purchased two soap dispensers that goes on top of a jar at a craft show you were at. One fits and the other does not. How can i exchange it?
Hey Beth,
Sorry about that!
Are you using the same type jar for both lids?
Some of the (very) old canning jars have less threads which can cause this problem.
Have you tried it on other jars?
But yes of course that is no problem to return. Send me an email and we’ll make a plan to meet
