While in the Tennessee mountains recently, we made a trip to the local Walmart where I came across some cuteness I wanted to share! I know, I know, Walmart and cuteness in the same sentence? Could it be? These adorable Mason Jar Tumblers combine the look of two of my favorite things- Mason Jars & Paper Straws- into one adorable “Southern Sippy Cup”. Ca-ute! These… View Post
This spring weekend was a perfect 10 here in Atlanta. The weather was gorgeous and I even pulled out my favorite summer wardrobe staple, white jeans (before Memorial Day, GASP), for our Braves game date night on Saturday night.

We were guiltiest in the guest room- we moved in, we plopped furniture down, and we moved on. Guest Room Before = boring…snooze…yawn…blah…and it sat like this for about 3 years. I did manage… View Post

And then Emily Clark gave us this eye candy in her home office redo Imagine my hysteria excitement when I stumbled across a couple campaign beauties at my local Goodwill a couple years ago…maybe even sending texts to my… View Post
