Garden Party
esterday was the First Annual Auction held by one of the oldest garden clubs in Atlanta, the Habersham Garden Club (HGC), and I was in attendance. The weather was beautiful, the flowers were blooming and everyone wore smiles in addition to their spring finery. Take a little peek at the event so so you can …
Bring Every Creative Bone in your Body!
e just found our next Mountain renovation and will be starting as soon as one million decisions are made. The home has great space and potential but, extreme creativity is needed for this future lovely. I am posting a few pictures of the rooms as they are now–more later. Take a look, and tell me …
Progress Report
he painters have finished and all is well. They have painted, cleaned, built shelves and drawers, patched holes, hung mirrors and light fixtures…I could sing their praises all day!

Happy First Day of Spring
♥ Spring! The flowers are just starting to pop out and signal to all of us that it is time to get out side and enjoy the day. I am posting a picture of the very old azalea plant in front of my kitchen window–Amazing color of pink. Enjoy the blooms in your neighborhood… I …

I checked the progress of the wonderful, meticulous, painters around 3:00 o’clock, and all was well. The trim was painted to perfection and the beautiful April Sky ceiling was dry and living up to its …
Wanted–Antique Doors and Shutters

Kitchen Love–Decisions, decisions…
ouis XVI chairs in the kitchen–really, this would not be a surprise to anyone who knows me. The decisions have been made and the work will continue this week. We had a very slow kitchen renovation week last week because the contractor had to have a root–canal and the painter pulled a muscle and pinched …
Flower Lovelies
onstruction flowers, the answer to a kitchen under renovations. I wanted pink roses–of course–but I just couldn’t resist these tangerine lovelies, too. The hydrangeas were used to add texture to the apron, but it still needed just a little pop of Spring green. I found this green cube in my dining room—one of the few …
