Summer Fun

Summer in the South means eating on the porch. This yellow patio is a killer look for a refreshing change of pace. Are you ready?

Bring on the Front Porch

It is officially that time of year when Floridians start thinking about decorating their outside space. A Southern Porch is an essential part of living in the sunshine State.

Mosaic Tile

These custom tile steps really pack a punch to this entryway.

Southern Porch Living

How lovely is this porch…including the chandelier?

Front Porch

It is getting to be front porch time with the warmer temperatures. Nothing says home like a front porch rocker!

The Southern Porch

The secret to a gracious southern home was to, “find a great porch, and build a house behind it.” Such good advice!

Spring in the Garden

One of the best signs of Spring is the return of color and flowers to front porches. BLING up your front porch with color. Everything old is new again…

First Impressions

Your front door makes a statement. I often tell people that either (a) buy a beautiful and high-end front door or (b) paint the front door a bold color. Either way, you make a statement about your home and the beauty to be found within.

Don’t neglect this very important feature of your house. First impressions DO count.

Halloween Decorating

Do you decorate the outside of your house for Halloween? I love the look but the season doesn’t last long enough for me.

I decorate on the inside of my house for Halloween for the grandkids but the outside is fall decorating only. I have so many fall decorations and i like to enjoy them. So, I get the both of most worlds and then on Nov. 1st I transform the inside to all Thanksgiving decorations. Works for me.
