see-through fireplace

my friend, john malone, restored a few old log houses on his property. in one of them, he said it was just too dark, so he decided to replace the fireplace and chimney with glass,and just build the framework out of strips of wood!

abandoned church

down in thomas county, we ran across this little church. the door was open, so we peeked inside. there even was a little outhouse- it was a little caved in, but looked charming, still.

meadows dry goods

rinne, rebecca and i went to asheville a couple of weeks ago.  we stopped by meadow's dry goods to check it out.  it is a studio space with a a sweet shop filled with many asheville made goodies.  the space was great filled with original general store shelving and now houses fabric, sewing machines, their "DIY library", and more.  we found some treasures and put some on our wishlist too.

kumquats

we were in charleston the other week and there was a kumquat tree in full fruit where we were staying...i had to bring a few clusters home with me. now, they are sitting by my window in one of my sweet vases from these ladies.
