I had a client this morning and had to leave the appointment early due to weather…thank you Lori for understanding! Schools closed early, and my friend, Candy, couldn’t get home, so she came over, and we had a great visit! And then the computer froze! So, I promise I’ll be back tomorrow and will be Read More

A Dinner Party (with some tips!)
I love to entertain! When you welcome guests into your home, whether it be for coffee, drinks, or a sit down dinner, your goal is to make them feel special. And like the Scouts say, “Be prepared.” Thinking ahead is key! Friday evening we entertained, so I thought I’d share my tips for a successful Read More

Terrariums
Bringing the outdoors in is a true treat especially this time of year! Several years ago, Mother, Elizabeth, and I created terrariums… It was such a fun day as we searched for our plant material and jars. Mother had already gathered the other necessary things. We layered pebbles, soil, and charcoal. The charcoal helps keep Read More

Magnolia Wreath
For a few years, I longed for a wreath for the mirror in the dining room which is now the living room. I thought about creating one but waited. So glad I did! Last year, I found this fabulous magnolia wreath! Magnolias are the quintessential Southern tree staple. We planted one honoring Daniel’s birth. (It Read More
And More Antlers!
Like I said, I love antlers! They provide a masculine touch in a room. Our living room is very feminine in color as well as the lines of the furniture. It’s definitely a room that I thoroughly am enjoying while having my coffee, drink of choice, and perusing magazines. However, it’s the masculine details that Read More
Collections: Antlers
I adore antlers! It must be my love for all things Charles Faudree’ (future blog post). He first introduced me to the world of antlers. In my 20’s, I discovered the “Adirondack” look…again, antlers (still love the Adirondack’s!). For my birthday a couple of years ago, my parents gave me my first antlers…enough for a Read More
Winter Decor
January is probably the one month when the “extra details” are nonexistent as far as the holidays go. The grass is definitely not green, Christmas has passed, and holiday decor is not up again until Valentine’s Day. For us, this month is a time to rest, relax, and recuperate. We’re like bears, when it’s dark Read More
