When Grace and I were in Atlanta for Lavish, Wendy Hanson and Lucy Allen Gillis took us to Star Provisions for lunch (yummy!), and then insisted we check out Sid Mashburn. I’ve seen a lot of stores, but I seriously wanted to move right into this one! (I’m determined to find someone to paint a…

photographers jesse and whitney chamberlin, from our labor of love, share their sunny atlanta home with their three-year-old son, gracyn. both jesse and whitney love that their home provides the best of both worlds – a tree house-style oasis and the ease and convenience of a city location (only one mile from atlanta). this talented…
hello, color! welcome to the atlanta home of kelly teasley, co-owner of young blood gallery & boutique and animal lover extraordinaire. kelly was a painting major in college (perhaps that’s where the color-inspiration comes from!) and has always been drawn to the south for its general warmth, odd traditions and humid summer days. as a…
moving from vancouver to atlanta 2 years ago with her young family, joy thigpen knew she wanted to find a little old house in a walkable town. when the family saw the trees in the backyard of a little 1929 house – a fig tree, an apple trees, pecan and oak trees and even blueberries…
how amy osaba is able to create such a serene and elegant home with three boys under the age of 5, i will never know! she must have learned some sort of grace under pressure during her 10 years as a professional ballet dancer. now amy applies that love of beauty and movement to her…

we first “met” kristen davis from her before and after colorful bar table, but today is a fun look into her great atlanta, georgia home. i think the thing i loved most about reading this post as i put it together was reading all the little “i painted this” or “i made that” touches throughout…
we first got a look inside the savannah, georgia home of the lovely liz demos of @home in one of katie runnels’ guest blog posts and it was a huge hit. today liz opens up even more of her gorgeous place (photographed about a year since the last images we saw). between architectural salvage finds…

to round out our day of southern peeks by the fantastic ladies behind beauty everyday, we have photographer rinne allen. her 100 year old home was refurbished in the ’60s by the previous owner. rinne describes it as it having old bones, but a mid-century feeling due to its linear lines & windows & use…

with grace headed down to georgia this week for the big day, we thought we’d start of a fantastic week of sneak peeks by “going south” with the three lovely ladies behind beautyeverday.com – a site that shares their creative experiences, artists, southern food, amazing southern homes, and love for the southern flora. first off…
today’s first sneak peek is a glamorous departure from the real-world (but beautiful) homes we normally run. designer caryn grossman lives in an elegant, atlanta home that we thought would serve as a wonderful afternoon daydream full of rich fabrics and colored glass. having recently re-watched sofia coppola’s marie antoinette, it reminds me of a…
our second sneak peek is into graphic designer/illustrator michelle armas‘s patterned atlanta home. michelle is yet another of our talented finalists from the lena corwin printing by hand contest. it was great seeing her submission photos, but so much fun getting a deeper look into her home. planning to buy a home – when the…
