The Mount Vernon Avenue house was our eighth home remodel. We purchased it within a month of our seventh remodel, Crestview II.
The Mount Vernon Avenue house is a 1540 square foot, three bedroom, one and a half bathroom, four square located in Fredericktown, Ohio.
I have provided affiliate links all throughout this post so items pictured can easily be shopped at no additional cost to you. Just click on the highlighted words or images in order to be directed to the link.

********GIVEAWAY ALERT**********
I found these antique maps in the attic of the Mount Vernon Avenue house. Some of them were marked “1896”, and some “1891”. I decoupaged the maps onto 16×20″ canvas and painted/distressed the edges. The one in the picture below stayed hanging on the wall at the MVA house, but I made two more to giveaway!


These maps would be particularly special to people living in the Fredericktown/Mount Vernon, Ohio area.
In order to be entered in the giveaway, simply comment in the box below (on THIS blog post, NOT on Facebook, because I canāt see all of the comments on Facebook) this post with the words, “I want a map.”
Anyone can comment, and if you donāt want the map for yourself, try to think of someone that might be blessed by one of these, and give it to them. Two winners will be chosen within the week.
Thanks so much for following along!
*******UPDATE****** Robyn and Danya won the maps. Thanks to everyone who commented!

I want a map. I love using old distressed items from the house in our remodels too. ⤠My husband always ties to find a unique piece of distressed wood from the garage, stains it and adds coat hooks for a cute and personalized coat rack in the entry or mud room.
