Hello and Happy 2018!  I'm sitting in our new place on a cold, snowy day.  The new place isn't where I thought it would be just a few months ago, but here I am.  We went to great lengths t...

 Hello September!!  Hello Readers!!  (crickets, crickets) Yes, I realize it has been forever since I blogged here.  Yesterday, I sat at my husband's new desk (or the one he just started us...

We have lived here almost two years and I have yet to do a real room or home tour of anything finished. Here is the home in the state that we bought it.  It didn't seem to need much at the ...

Just by writing this blog post, I am meeting one of my goals this year: to blog more.  And, I have also blogged more in 2016 than in 2015 just by posting this today.  Some of you may notice som...

2015 has come and gone and I think I only managed one blog post last year.  How can that be?  I am sure I can come up with lots of excuses.  The big one being the word "go." I didn't choo...

Happy New Year!  I loved having up my Christmas stuff, but  was anxious to get it packed.  I am always pretty excited about a New Year and a tabula rasa.  Plus, we had such a here or the...

Two sleeps until Christmas and I managed to pull together my first blog post in months.  I have been sharing progress on our new old house on Instagram  quite a bit and Facebook as well. ...

I am finally getting around to posting the before photos of our new home.  I wish I could share the exterior of our house, but some creepy people spoil all the fun for the others.  So, trust m...

Today is the day where everything is supposed to be final on the sale of our old home in Spring Hill.  I say "supposed" because nothing about this process of buying and selling has been eas...

http://vintagejunky.blogspot.com/2014/07/goodbye-old-house_1.html

Well, I certainly never meant to stay away from the blog for quite so long.  We have been quite consumed with house stuff, both buying and selling. We have been all over for the past few mo...

Hello all!  Welcome February!  It isn't much warmer, but it isn't January.  I don't like disliking January, but I do.... It is definitely my least favorite month of the year. Recently, the M...

Hello, hello, hello!!  Long time no see, huh?  I could not turn on my computer.  The cable and the battery were so, so dead.  Poor MacBook!  I bought a new cable and though I have to st...

It is pretty unlike me to not post a little Christmas tour of our home, but this year felt different.  I kept things pretty simple for me and just put out the most important things that mak...

I thought I would do a little Friday Favorites of some recent handmade purchases that I adore.  We went to a couple of pop up shops in New York and went to the Porter Flea in Nashville last week...

Well, I don't think I have ever gone a month without blogging.  September just happens to be my favorite month and I think we have been soaking it up.  I started off my month with one of my...
