White Barn Interiors

Elizabeth Behm, Founder & Creator, White Barn Interiors


I am thrilled to introduce you to a very special friend of mine, Elizabeth, as well as her very special business, White Barn. First, some background.  We met our freshman year at Mississippi State University and, as we say, have "been in love ever since". I just realized that's almost a 20 year friendship... Anyway, we literally had to give each other away at each of our weddings... and our husbands get it.




Ok, we are "besties for life", you get it.  We graduated from college, worked our first "real jobs" and then moved to Birmingham in 2002 in search of fun and our futures and we definitely found both! Each now married, with 2 kids each and both back in Mississippi, we have found ourselves living out our dreams. Hers' creating and mine writing about it. So, without further a-do, here is my Elizabeth with White Barn Interiors...



Hey y’all! I am Elizabeth Behm, founder and creator of White Barn. I am also mom to two sweet, vibrant young kids and wife to the man of MY dreams. And that’s what I have been doing, ever since we moved from Alabama back to my hometown in north Mississippi, living the dream… MY dream… White Barn.

White Barn Interiors was created in 2014 shortly after the birth of my second child. I attended a baby shower with two of my then-pregnant friends. We were all looking for large frames to put our sweet babies’ pictures in. There were some beautiful frames available, of course, but they were very expensive (and to be honest, I now know why). I wondered how hard it was to make one (and quickly found out).

I decided to truly dive in, heads first, and apprenticed under an awesome, local artist and custom framer in my hometown, Fred Enis. Six short months later I opened White Barn on the square in Ripley, Mississippi.

I love the idea of reclaimed anything! There are many abandoned old farmhouses in the South and I feel like I hit the jackpot with all that is available. I like to use old wood and combine it with modern pieces. Don't get me wrong, I do love the rustic look here and there but my true passion is to mix it up with a modern touch. Each piece tells a story. Please let me help tell yours!

I also do custom framing with many molding choices as well as mat and glass cutting, all in house. 

My latest passion is painting. I am currently working on many new pieces and can do commissioned projects for you. Have an empty space? I can fill it!

Welcome to White Barn. Thank you for checking out MY dream come true, making authentic and special pieces for YOUR dreams to shine through.
