Honey gave me a gorgeous, original oyster painting by Bellamy Murphy of Savannah for our tenth anniversary. He went through Savannah must-shop Sweet Tea to commission the stunning piece.
I’ve been chomping at the bit to get this beaut hung, but it needed a little something extra for the space I had in mind. When we originally purchased our home, the nook where I made our growth chart in the upstairs hallway was originally a strange, floor to ceiling bookshelf that screamed Precious Moments figurines. Honey fashioned together five of the shelves to make a gorgeous, planked piece to back the Bellamy. I love that the wood is original to our 1968 home!
I could not be happier with the final look. I literally grin from ear to ear every time I walk by. I’ve updated my Den Before & After post with the new look!
He’s a good man, that Honey!

Red, White & Krispie
I absolutely adore Rice Krispie Treats. And Honey does too. Forget the creme brulees and complicated custards because a good old RKT is the dessert of choice around these parts! I’ve had fun getting creative with them over the years…like Rice Krispie Cupcakes and the King Krispie Cake…and these patriotic Red, White & Krispie Treats… Read More

4th Annual 4th Celebration

Patriotic Porch Mini Reveal
I’ve been awaiting this day with bated breath…the porch is 99% complete (only need gutters and screens) and I am in love. I am going to put together a full reveal with all the detailed shots, sources and of course contact information for our amazing contractor, but in the mean time I figure if I… Read More
A Patriotic Welcome
Our front porch is decked out in red, white and blue for a very patriotic welcome! Honey hung the bunting and I stuck a few flags in the pots. And in about two minutes flat the front was ready for the fourth! Y’all, the back porch is just a smidge away from complete and I’ve… Read More
A No Good Very Bad Idea
Everyone down South is ranting about the heat wave, as record highs are relentlessly beating down on Georgians from one end of the state to the other. So what did we do on the hottest day of the year? Why, go to a four o’clock Braves game, of course. A no good very bad idea,… Read More
