I am so excited to share this news with you I can hardly stand it!  My dear friend Thomas Ard has joined forces with the leader in painted toleware, Jayes Studio, to add his fabulous designs to their fabulous tole pieces and the products hit stores in just a few weeks.  Think fabulous pieces you will want for yourself and every single person on your gift list this holiday season. As you can spy from the image above this collection of blue and white pieces is right up my alley but there are so many amazing pieces to chose from in a number of color stories so you truly can pick from almost any combination.

Can you tell I am literally giddy?

Zhush Features TPC


I was beyond excited when Sue de Chiara reached out to me a few weeks ago requesting to feature our home on her amazing blog.  I have followed the zhush for quite a while and we "met" officially during our participation in a One Room Challenge together.  I have immense respect for Sue as a design blogger, shop owner and woman. Not to mention her incredible eye and sense of style. Her house is amazing and I urge you to take a tour of her home on One Kings Lane!

Real Estate Crush ... Mimosa Hall


Yesterday was a fabulous day.  I started off super productive at the house tackling our pantries and ended it with a volleyball double header and a fantastic dinner at Pizzeria Lucca in nearby Roswell.   As we drove home last night with the windows down and the sunset I was truly just one happy girl. The drive home took us along the Chattahooche River which was truly stunning at sunset. Add in some 80's number one hits and all was truly bliss.

Dinner Deets


Top || Jeans || Shoes (on sale with 25% off)  || Earrings || Bag

Last Friday evening Lawyer and I had dinner with two friends he met in law school.  It was a fun change from our normal stay at home date night so I was super excited to wear my new favorite shirt. I spotted the top while grabbing some fun pieces for some fall events and this top and I fell in love with this top at first touch.  Super soft and fabulously thick it wears well, hangs well and is so comfortable.  I might need to live in Supima cotton every day all day. I snagged it up quickly and immediately talked a girl at the register into getting one as well.

BLOGGING 1101 ...


As I have been chatting about on Instastories I am involved in an online workshop tomorrow evening with the darling Carrie Grace.  I am super excited and have been working for more than a week to prepare for this live conference.  I will admit I was so nervous but as the content came together and the slides starting happening the nerves turned into pure excitement!

Saturday Scores Vol. 14


I spotted this image on Pinterest earlier this week and completely stopped searching and stared it at for ever!! And then I read every single word of the blog post quite possibly twice.  Isn't it incredible??  It started my mind spinning about anything I need to add think about adding to my blue and white collection to be able to create something similar for Thanksgiving.  I have never done an all blue and white table for the fall and I think it would be perfect!!

A Gentry Bourbon Date Night



I was researching tailgate parties for a friend the other day on Pinterest to collect some images for a photo shoot she is working on and was immensely inspired by all the amazing classic preppy photos. It was one monogrammed button down with pearls after another.  Add in a little plaid and finish it off with a needlepoint belt and I was completely smitten.  My preppy heart could hardly contain the goodness that was all over my screen.  As sad as I am to see summer come to a close I was slightly excited to see some plaid goodness everywhere.  Maybe in a month I will be ready to embrace the fall.

Coffee Please ...


I know without a doubt you are with me on my excitement over the first cup of coffee of the day. I wake up to my 6 am alarm each day and after stretching for a minute my brain immediately starts thinking of coffee.  I literally get excited about that warm cup of strong yumminess. It may be my favorite part of each day when I wake up.

Feeling Like Me ...



We all have bad days and some of those bad days extend for more than just the day and we end up with a bad week.  It happens to everyone and sometimes it takes a little more to get back to feeling like yourself.  Last week was that way for me.  It started off emotional with my youngest starting her 7th grade year and then hit me hard after losing a large and ever present member of my family and I was left feeling drained and lost and totally in a fog.  Part sad, part grief and just completely and totally drained.

We can all relate.

Introducing LBH & Co.


As you may know I write a monthly installment for The Southern C titled From The Desk Of.  For the last 18 months I have had the pleasure of interviewing some incredible creatives to learn more about their business, their path to success and what drives them personally.  It is one of my favorite things to do each month.

Croquet Love!



My love for the game of croquet started as a very young child.  My grandparents gifted my mother and I a set when I was about 3 and I distinctly remember being taught how to play immediately.  I will find that photo of me in cute plaid pants and blue clogs with a mallet I am sure was as big as I was learning to play.  My mother was wearing amazing flare pants in an incredible pattern with her beloved Dr. Scholl's sandals.

Saturday Scores ... Vol. 13

School is upon us! Did you see last Friday's amazing giveaway of back to school goodies with Madeline and Company???? It was absolutely too good to be true filled with all of those amazing supplies. My assistant wanted it for herself! In fact she was so excited she pulled together some of her personal must haves for senior year. Note that it does not include a backpack ... she already has her Madeline and Company backpack that she absolutely adores.

Dinner Party Table Perfection


Happy Friday!!  I say it every week, its my favorite day.  This week has been so crazy that I may have stood on something tall and jumped right into Friday's arms half way through yesterday.  I was so ready for the weekend I could hardly stand it.

Hello Friday, I am so thankful you are here!

S'mores Galore!


Happy National S'mores Day!  Since this is a favorite dessert for the Minears I knew it was the perfect day to share our recipes.  Lawyer loves to grill and since he uses a charcoal grill it is easy to roast marshmallows as soon as we are done with dinner.  The kids will ask, s'mores tonight?, during dinner at least once a week.

Weekend Precis ...

Since my youngest child started school today (UGH) I knew I wanted to make this weekend last as long as possible. After thinking about it for a few weeks I knew I wanted to spend the weekend making new memories and having adventures, and that we did. And we lived it out until the very last second, coming home last night from the lake to arrive at 9:30.  Not ideal for anyone's schedule but also so very worth it.

It's those moments we don't forget ...

Saturday Scores ... Vol 12


Happy Saturday!!  I am super excited to share a fun sale with you today that starts at 8 pm tonight. Set an alarm, mark your calendar on your phone and get ready, this is a fun one!

Mom Social



So as you have noticed in my Insta stories one of my children started school on Monday.  The youngest starts next Monday and the oldest doesn't start his new semester until the end of the month. Thank goodness for some sanity with these early start dates.  They might have started school but summer is no way over for me.  I still have a full month to soak it all up before swimming kicks up again and we have to think about a new season.

Pool Side With Hazen Jewelry ...


I have shared my adoration for Hazen Jewelry and the darling Taylor Miller in the past.  It is no secret that this girl is a rock star and makes the most adorable jewels.  I had the incredible gift of spending a full day with Taylor recently and she shared with me that her newest photo shoot was right up my alley.  When she sent the images I literally gasped.  It was like I died and landed in Palm Beach goodness heaven.  

Literally ...

Skipper's New Gig!


As you know one of my closest friends is Amanda from Dixie Delights.  Although, I don't call her Amanda, to me she is Skipper and always will be.  From our first getaway together when I hung my Lilly items in the closet next to hers and they were identical except hers were so much shorter than mine.  I recall saying it is like Barbie and Skippers closet in here, and Skipper she instantly became.

Let me tell you a little about Skipper.  This girl is quite possibly the most detail oriented and smartest girl I know.  Truly ... she is brilliant.  Skipper is very organized and when she tackles a project she doesn't leave a stone unturned.  If you follow her blog you can instantly tell she is all about the details.  Whether she is making dinner for the kids, organizing a pool day, a vacation or something even bigger her posts are spot on and full of amazing tips and details.  I read her blog daily even though I know most of what goes on in her world just to soak up the tips.  Recently she taught me about Fresh Market and their meal deals and the best meals to cook on a green egg (my hubs wants one).


She and her darling family love their Disney vacations.  In the few short years I have known her she has taken numerous Disney vacations to the parks, resorts and cruises.  There is nothing she doesn't know about Disney and she puts my extensive knowledge to shame.  My dad worked for Disney when my parents divorced and I was quite the frequent flyer as a child with the parent connection and my grandparents devotion to the mouse.  Skipper has me beat hands down. Every single time she goes I learn more and more about a place truly special to my heart.

All of these details about my dear friend make her new adventure perfect for her.  After leaving Coke earlier this summer she has taken a position with Glass Slipper Concierge.  This job is perfect for her and she will be a rock star.  When she and I were new friends we met for lunch and she helped me plan a spring break at Tybee Island.  The details she gave me were incredible and we had the best time.  She had my schedule down to the tiniest moments even telling me where to be to see the most incredible sunset while having the best Bloody Mary we have ever ordered!

I can not recommend Skipper enough.  Reading her blog alone will convince you she is your Disney vacation planner!  I promise you that I would use her time and time again for every single vacation we plan.  Our summer plans (since the youngest swims all summer long) move to September and if I can find a Disney property we want to visit Skipper will hands down be my go to for assistance.

You can read all about all she does in this post where she announces her new gig.  I adore her, as you can tell, and she is the best around for any and all things mouse related. This is your vacation planner right here, Hands down!!

I adore you Skips, and I can not wait to watch you slay this position.  It was made for you!!

Happy Tuesday loves!


Don't forget to enter the Shello Dahling giveaway!  It ends on Friday!
