Barbara Biel creates the most amazing hearts and crosses. No two are exactly the same. They are so special. We have bought them as gifts throughout the years but never bought one for ourselves. Thanksgiving we bought the cross, and I bought the heart this year for Fred for Christmas. They have larger of both that are amazing, but the small ones are magnificent and look so dramatic in the sun, don’t they?

Snow in Charleston photos continue… back to normal posting tomorrow. Please bear with me. Snow in Charleston, SC is a precious thing! I love…
Continue reading “Contemplating the Snow – Charleston, SC”
Ah! The Charleston, SC snow that fell earlier this week was amazing. This weekend I’m sharing a few shots. There are so many (ok, too many) – it’s rare, so I had to document, ha ha… Fred and Charlie out and about – Charlie loved the snow – tried to eat a good deal of it. He was wild!
I have to say…
This may look like a regular snow day to most of you well-seasoned-in-snowy-weather peeps. But here in tropical, sunny Charleston, SC this was a rarity. A very welcomed one! I’ve never seen so many people outside enjoying themselves. You have to admit, it’s really cool as a kid, but as an adult, it’s JUST as much fun. We had about 5″ of wonderful snow – some areas around here received almost 8! As I write this…
This is the 59 Greenville Lane house plan by Our Town Plans. It’s a beauty isn’t it? This home is 3,466 square feet with 3 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms (with an optional attic space that adds 1,098′ along with a bedroom, bathroom, bonus room, loft, mechanical room and storage!)
This home has wonderful deep porches, working shutters and so much charm – I love that steep roof!
What a fabulous plan! An open Living/Dining/Kitchen, along with a wonderful Laundry space and on the other side of the staircase a Study. Can you imagine how much time you would spend there? I can! Note the ceilings on the main floor are 12′. Pretty darn impressive! (Upstairs ceilings measure 11’3″ and the optional attic space is 9’6″) – Grand!
Just look at all these porches! Both screened and unscreened. There is a lot of time to be spent on these dreamy porches!

A great upstairs configuration with a large master bedroom, a smaller bedroom, and then across the hall another large bedroom. Personally, I would use the master bedroom and make the smaller bedroom beside it a reading room. (Note that the “smaller” bedroom is still a good size!). There is also a nice office space.
There is also an optional attic configuration and it’s pretty incredible! Click HERE to see more…. Wow, the bonus space adds a bedroom, bathroom, bonus area and loft!
Catch you back here tomorrow!
