✨ A Dream Come True ✨

December 3rd, 2024, will forever be etched in my heart as the day my dream came true and today, that dream is a living reality.

Melissa Sturdivant Smith (Creative Director, Victoria Magazine) and Stephanie Wellbourne Steel (Photographer) visited my home to photograph it for Victoria Magazine. When Melissa asked if I could recommend a few client homes to photograph while they were here, I immediately knew who to call,  Tina Johnson of Pecan Hill Estate Bed & Breakfast and Rachel Payette, who owns a stunning 1700's home I’ve always adored.

Both were thrilled, and it was such a joy helping all three of us prepare for this incredible opportunity. To now see my work gracing two magazine covers,

Victoria Magazine and Southern Lady is beyond anything I ever imagined!

My own home is featured on the cover and an inside story of Victoria Magazine, while Rachel’s beautiful home is on the cover and in the pages of Southern Lady. Tina’s charming Bed & Breakfast also appears in Southern Lady, with my work displayed on her gorgeous front sitting-room mantel.

This experience has truly been one of the most amazing blessings of my life, an answer to a prayer whispered years ago by a little girl who dreamed of moments like this.

So grab your copies of these two beautiful magazines, and I hope they inspire you to create and fall in love with your home all over again.

Home is everything to me. I love creating spaces that feel warm, cozy, and welcoming — especially at Christmas, when extra greenery, twinkle lights, and love fill every corner.

🎄 Merry Christmas, my friends, from my home to yours. ❤️
