This Blog Journey We're On Together

I guess you've noticed the new header and the new NAME!  I'm so excited to finally make the change.  I've debated and hem-hawed about it for a long time.  Well.  No time like the present, right?  

Nashville Symphony Show House 2015

Recently I was invited to a special preview of the Nashville Symphony Show House along with an amazing group of bloggers, the Nashville Influencers.   

Ya'll, this home is gorgeously comfortable.  Ok, that's not a real term from an interior design textbook but I'm declaring it a real term right now.  You read it hear first!

This quintessential Southern Contemporary Folk home was created by top Nashville interior designers that have partnered with the award-winning team of Castle Homes and Wade Weissmann Architecture for Music City's newest signature event, the Nashville Symphony Show House, open for tour June 12-28 in the Forest Hills area of Nashville.

Castle Homes hosted our tour today along with a garden party with garden lifestyle expert and Southern Living Magazine Contributing Garden Editor Carmen Johnston along with the iconic Miss Daisy King and PBS Volunteer Gardener Troy Marden, author of "Southern Gardener's Handbook." 

Well, it'll be easier and less wordy if I just show you this comfortable gorgeousness.  Sit back, grab a cuppa something and enjoy!  I'll catch you after the last photo.

Hello again!  See, I told ya, gorgeously comfortable or was it comfortably gorgeous.  Either way, it's a beautiful home.  If you're in the Nashville area, be sure to check it out.  Here's a link to Castle Homes with the details.  Many thanks to them, Forest Home Media, Miss Daisy King, Carmen Johnston Gardens, and Troy Marden for making this a great event.

Oh, are you wondering about the new header and blog name?  Yeah, I'm tinkering with changing The Altered Past to Spain Hill Farm. Since my blog is more about my home decorating and DIY projects instead of my altered art, I felt a change was necessary.  

More on the change soon.  You'll probably notice a few new graphics as I'm still tweaking everything.  I'm too impatient to get it all figured out before uploading so you can experience the decision making process with me.  Thanks friends!!

God bless!

Something To Talk About Link Party #20

Hi all!!  How was your weekend?  

I had a yard sale Saturday so I was thankful for the beautiful weather.  However, there were only 8 customers ALL day long!  That's a risk with having a yard sale w-a-y out in the boonies.  I sold several big things so it was worth it even with such a small turnout.  

Enough about the past, let's get on with today!

It's Monday and it's time to party!!

Rustic Candle Chandelier

I saw a version of this rustic chandelier on Pinterest and wanted to make a candle version to hang outside for an upcoming party.  So off to my hoard of scrap wood to see what I could come up with.

Something To Talk About Link Party #19

I don't know what it's like where you are but our weather forecast for this week is rain, rain, rain, and more rain.  Not that I'm too upset about that.  Our yard was looking pretty parched and the farm pond was getting pretty low.  However, I'm praying for those affected by the continuous rain and storms out west.

Since it is raining, I think today would be a perfect day to hang out here for a while and check out all the great projects in this week's
