Country Living Fair in Nashville and a Giveaway!


Are ya'll ready for this??!!  Country Living Fair is coming to the Nashville area this month!  

Have you ever been to one of the Country Living Fairs?  They hold several across the country from spring through fall.  For the past two years, I've attended the one in Atlanta.  I can tell you from personal experience...THEY'RE AMAZING!!

Nashville's Country Living Fair will feature special guest Mike Wolfe of History Channel's American Pickers.  He's also a best-selling author and the creator/owner of Antique Archaeology. 



Along with Mike Wolfe, you'll find Cari Cucksey of HGTV's Cash & Cari.  Cari will have her own shop set up at the fair.  You can talk with her, see some of her great repurposed items, as well as purchase some for yourself.  She even has her own line of paint!

Ok, so enough telling you about the great things you'll find there...let's get to the important stuff.  Who'd like to win a pair of tickets?!  Thanks for Country Living, one of my readers will win a pair to the Nashville fair April 24-26!

Here's how:  


Good Luck!!  I hope to see you at the Nashville Country Living Fair!!

God bless!

Nashville Antiques and Garden Show 2015

This past week I was invited to attend the Nashville Antiques and Garden Show.  If you follow me on Twitter or Instagram, you probably saw my pics and tweets from it.  All I can say is if you've never been...go!  The booths and displays are absolutely gorgeous.  Definite eye candy!  

I'm not going to comment a lot during this post so just stroll along with me as we explore the booths.

This was one huge piece of driftwood that was turned on its side to use as a console table.

These were seriously cool blueprints of street signs.  They had lots of different ones.

How about this view of the booths from a room upstairs!  The group was invited upstairs to a champagne reception to meet Kreis Beall of Blackberry Farm, Suzanne Kasler of Suzanne Kasler Interiors (and you probably recognize her name from Ballard Design), Carolyn Englefield, editor of Veranda magazine,  Margot Shaw of Flower magazine, and a few others but I'll tell you more about the interview with them later this week.  They were very gracious in sharing about their design inspirations and more.

Thanks for stopping by.  Don't forget to check back for the interviews with the designs.

God bless!
