Happy Labor Day!
I am so bummed that my vacation to Tybee Island is over, it went by way too fast! And here we are already at Labor Day too? Where did the summer go?! I'm going to make the most of it and step away from the computer today! Had to share this gorgeous porch from Historical Concepts though from the 2012 Southern Living Idea House in Senoia, Georgia, photographed here by Laurey W. Glenn. Don't you love the "haint blue" on the ceiling?? (Painted "Window Pane" by Sherwin Williams SW6210.) If you ... View Post
