My husband has this thing with buying vintage stuff on Craiglist. He has bought all sorts of crazy stuff on there- like an old turnstile from the stadium at the University of Alabama, a few rows of movie theater seating from the Alabama Theatre, a Coke machine from the 1940s and a 5 foot tall popcorn dispenser from the 1950s. He's even bought a few one-armed bandit vintage slot machines that weigh about 40-leven tons each, but maybe I shouldn't mention that publicly since I'm not sure how … [Read more...]

In just a few weeks, a whole bunch of my friends will be sending their babies off to college for the first time. It's been over 20 years since I lived in a dorm, but I can still remember making that drive down to start my freshman year with a carload of clothes, a tropical fish themed comforter set and about forty-leven framed photographs, which I carefully spaced all around the windowsill like a shrine to my boyfriend at the time. I had never met my roommate and didn't know a single soul on … [Read more...]

I have always been obsessed with floor plans. When I was a teenager, I would spend hours pouring over Southern Living House Plan books. While the other girls were reading Teen Magazine, my nose was stuck in a book of blueprints. I would study each plan and figure out what I liked best about it and what I would change if it were my own home. I would admire the pencil sketches of the front of the house and try to picture what kind of family might live there. I was obsessed. By the time I was … [Read more...]

It's really easy these days to buy mass-produced farmhouse style decor items. That Fixer-Upper rustic farmhouse style is still super hot-n-trendy, so it is available everywhere you turn in the home decor stores. I even featured a local farmhouse decor truck here on the blog a few months back that is like an ice-cream truck for raving farmhouse decor fans. But even if you don't have farmhouse deals-on-wheels in your city, you can roll down to any big box store and find a million pretty … [Read more...]

When I was asked by Jennifer at Town and Country Living to join a bunch of my blog friends for a favorite Summer colors blog hop, of course my mind immediately went to blue. After all, I had just completed my screened-in porch makeover in blue and white (with touches of aqua and green) and it just screams SUMMERTIME out there, right? But when the first posts started going live on Monday for the blog hop, I began to see a major trend. It seemed like EVERYBODY was choosing a blue hue, … [Read more...]

The day started like any other--a lazy weekend when my husband took the kids to visit his parents at their lake house. I stayed home to work on projects and get the laundry put away. But as soon as he walked through the door, I could tell something was different. Something had happened. His eyes were shining with excitement as he pulled out his phone and said "I found a building today." Ok, let me back up a bit. I had been toying with the idea of opening a brick and mortar store to … [Read more...]
