This photo was taken on a walk last week, downtown (Charleston, SC) – there are so many flowers blooming right now it will dazzle your mind, ha ha. It’s beautiful to see everything in bloom, the bees so busy, the scent from the jasmine is starting, oh… next the ligustrums which are exploding with small white blooms. It’s like the strongest scented candle in the very best way.

✝️ Happy Easter! 🐰
It’s so refreshing to get out and walk somewhere different. We have a few different routes or places that we walk but every once in a while it’s like a mini vacation to drive a few miles away, park and get out and walk somewhere different. It opens your perspective and we see fresh ideas. Plants, flowers, etc.

With all the uncertainty going on in the world right now perhaps you’re considering a smaller house. If so, this is a fabulous plan with wonderful porches that makes the square footage feel like so much more (weather permitting of course). To have a screen porch off of the living area is like having a little piece of Heaven! No compromise here, this is a beauty, let’s take a peek…

One (of the many) things that I love about Allison Ramsey’s plans is the fact that they can fit into an existing neighborhood and blend seamlessly. This home can easily look as if it’s been there for a long time and maintained meticulously. It’s important (to me) when building in an older neighborhood. I think you will love this plan (along with fabulous porches on the front and back)! It’s fabulous, let’s take a peek…

Spring is magical everywhere in the world, but springtime in Charleston brings a special kind of beauty. The scents wafting through the air are magical. Charleston has many large live oak trees, in this area they have Spanish moss hanging from their stately limbs, they also have Resurrection fern growing on the large branches. Talk about magical…

This plant is such a joy I cannot even begin to express how much I absolutely adore it. We planted a few in pots last year – around this time, they bloomed all summer long! Literally you do nothing but make sure they don’t get too dry (especially in a pot). Give them a nice drink of water when they look thirsty and they’re good!

The sun is shining, the flowers are blooming the wisteria is giving off its heavenly scent. Life is good here in Charleston, SC. This really is the perfect time to be in Charleston. Soon the weather will heat up (exponentially) and the humidity will peak. So get out and enjoy it while you can…

There are such beautiful lines to this plan. This is another plan that could easily fit into an existing neighborhood as well as a newer neighborhood. It has style and charm, which is so important to me. It looks like a home that will stand the test of time and age beautifully.

It was officially spring yesterday a little after 5AM EST and I thought this was the perfect photo to share. I love this flower, it was stunning. (I took this photo, but this is not at my house) – I’m not sure of the name of it, but there were plenty and they were beautiful! Very springy! The weather is warming the flowers are blooming – it’s our most beautiful season.

Stunning plan. The exterior is exquisite. The shake roof is so beautiful. So many details make this plan one that will be around for generations. I usually try to feature homes that can fit into existing older neighborhoods so that the flow, rhythm and character remains. This is a beauty and could fit in nicely in many neighborhoods – let’s take a peek…

Isn’t this the coolest outdoor chair? Last week we planted podocarpus at one end of our pool and it turned that end of the pool into a cozy retreat. Next stop… a table, but for now I am thrilled with this purchase! I’ve seen these chairs out and about for many years, here are the details…

Can you believe that it’s almost spring? My husband and I had to run some errands yesterday, popped in Abide-A-While nursery in Mount Pleasant, SC. LOVELY gift items indoors, and the plants, trees, shrubs and flowers are over the top gorgeous. This orchid being a prime example – Wow!

Isn’t this a stunning house plan? A master suite downstairs (as well as everything you can imagine!) I love this image of theirs, so dramatic. The lighting is perfection and all the French doors really make a statement. I love the shutters on either side of each door. Spectacular! It almost looks like a home you might see in the historic district of Charleston, SC
