Welcome to Our Southern Home


Thanks so much for stopping by today!

Our Southern Home started in 2012. It has evolved into a lifestyle brand featuring affordable ways to decorate your home. I'd describe my style as eclectic traditional leaning toward #grandmillennial. I love to infuse French and English accents. Blue and white #chinoiserie style is a favorite.

I invite you to check out my reader's favorite series, Saturdays on the Porch. This is where I share an outfit or two that I have worn throughout the week, favorite purchases, and a bit of life.

You'll also find monthly thrift store projects, simple recipes, lots of seasonal decorating ideas, and a bit of travel mixed in.

My favorites

Thrift store makeovers are one of my favorite things that I share. You can apply the ideas to treasures that you may already own.
