Hi there! I hope you are enjoying this cozy fall season like we are...it was in the 90's just a few days ago, and now it's in the 50's in Tennessee. Hopefully this means the leaves will change color soon! We have my mom visiting us from WA this week, and after the chimney sweep comes this afternoon, we will have our first fire of the season in our fireplace. It makes me want to watch Mary ...

Summer Visitors and a Decorating Tip
Hi there! I hope you are all having a nice summer! We are having a stay-cation this year at our neighborhood pool, since we can't be away from a few of our projects at the moment. We're thinking about heading to the mountains in East Tennessee for a short trip in the fall though. If you have suggestions on where to stay or what to see in the Great Smokies, let me know!

It's hard to believe it has been one full year since our photo shoot for American Farmhouse Style magazine! It has been such a busy year since, and I was so burned out on decorating that I thought I would never care about decorating our own house again. Then, we found ourselves opening a shop that was originally just kitchen hardscapes (cabinets, countertops and tile), and turned into all that ... View Post
Farm tables and more, plus a small request
Hi there! We just survived our first full week of being open! Thanks to all of you who came in to visit us! We started the week scrambling to get everything priced and displayed, and ended the week with our first Google review (and a GIANT load of new items waiting to be priced and displayed)! Plus some new customers and clients. It all turned out much better than expected (let's just say I ... View Post
