The Queen of Garage Sales and Thrift Store Shopping

Hey Guys!!   So last week was another busy week around the house! More progress was made and I'll be sharing that with you all very soon! But today I wanted to do something a bit different. This past weekend we took a trip to TN to visit some of my most favorite people in the whole world! My great Aunt and Uncle, who were really always more like grandparents to me! We got to spend some wonderful time with them and catch up on life! So thankful for that much needed time together! While there, I asked her if it would be ok to photograph her home. Ya'll, this is where I first fell in love with home decor!

"Before" House Tour (part 1)

Hey guys! Thanks for all the sweet comments about us buying the new house! Your enthusiasm was appreciated! If you don't know how this flipper house came to be, you can click  here  to read the full story!  We were able to get some work done over the weekend and its fun to start seeing things happening! We got all the old kitchen countertops removed and ripped off all the old backsplash. Who knew that could be so therapeutic, but swinging that hammer really relieved some stress! Our painter started as well and I cant wait to get over there and see his progress! Paint can make all the difference in the world! Ok, so before I get too far ahead, I did want to show you guys the inside pictures!  I snapped quite a few and don't want to overload you all, so decided to break this up into two posts. Today I'll show you the main level and a few more of the outside! Let's get started! We definitely plan to have the outside painted, its a pretty house and
