WELCOME to Georgia y’all!! Where the weather’s HOT and the tea is SWEET! I’m so honored to be following my friend Rhoda, of Southern Hospitality on the 2014 Blogger Summer Home Tour; hosted by my fabulous and talented friend Gina, of Shabby Creek Cottage! Be sure to pay her a visit to start at the beginning of this amazing tour of blogger homes!
We’ve been in our rental house, here in the Atlanta area, for exactly one year and even though we won’t be in it forever, we’ve worked hard to turn it into a home!
Come on in…and enjoy my home, full of summer decor ideas…y’all! I’m going to let the house do the talking and your eyes do the walking, so make yourself at home!

Your home is perfect for summer. I love the cobalt blue you’ve incorporated.
What a beautiful home! Thanks so much for sharing!
So fresh and inviting! And so glad you’re in GA now. 🙂

Your summer home looks beautiful, Heather! I must have forgot you were renting, but I have to say you’d never know it. You’ve done a great job bringing your style and personality into your home.
Beautiful! I love all the greens and blues, so refreshing in the hot Georgia heat, y’all 🙂
Debbie
Stunning, Heather! Definitely one of my favorite homes on the summer tour — I think it’s our mutual love of color!!!
🙂 Linda
My goodness Heather, your home is gorgeous. I love it’s brightness & sun-filled spaces. The colors you’ve introduced are incredible. Can I visit? I think I could sit in your breakfast room for hours with a glass of sweet tea 🙂

Jenna
Love it, Heather … your summer home is beautiful and so alive with color! I know all who enter feel happy as soon as they step foot in your door. Speaking of your door … what a cool idea hanging the iron piece on there! Thanks for sharing … Happy Summer!
Heather, you really have worked hard on making that home beautiful and so you. I love all the colors and textures, such a great job on everything. Looking forward to catching up with you some this summer!! xoxo
Your home is gorgeous, I love all the color! Just wondered where the number/letter picture came from? Thanks!

Hi Jan! It’s actually a reproduction print that I purchased at Hobby Lobby and then framed. Cheap art! ha! I’ve also seen it at Michael’s. 🙂 Thank you for stopping by!
Beautiful! Is there any way to find out more information about the bird print in the pillow on the bed? I don’t get online every day, so if there’s a way you could respond to the email, I’d be ever so grateful! Thanks.
Hi Mary Alice! I purchased the pillow at Stein Mart but I think Wayfair online might also carry it. 🙂
Heather
Your home is amazing Heather! (And we carry that Richloom Birdwatcher fabric, Mary Alice 🙂 http://www.onlinefabricstore.net/richloom-birdwatcher-summer-fabric-.htm)
Thank you Abbey and that is so good to know! Will change my post to let people know that. 🙂
Heather
Oh my gosh Heather! I am just swooning at your gorgeous home and I am just dying to have a firepit like yours. Did you guys DIY and if so, do you have a post about it? I’ve seen similar ones, but I really liked the small spacers between the larger pieces.
Hi Jane thank you so much!! The the tutorial for the firepit is over on the HGTV Gardens website! Here’s the link:

Simply beautiful home and magazine cover decorating!
Your front door is so fun! I also love your outdoor living spaces! I’d love an outdoor bar area and a fire pit!
Love your home Heather! I love the color of your front door and am envious of your fire pit! Great tour 🙂
Heather….that was so much fun! I love seeing where you crash. The front door….I am totally copying that. And when I saw your wedding picture I thought, “Hey, why don’t I have my wedding picture hanging up somewhere?!” You’ve inspired me. Lisa~

Beautiful home! I love the use of bright colours! Question, what pattern/brand are your dishes on your breakfast room table? I love that colour green!
Hi Cindy! Thank you so much! They are from Mikasa. Here’s a post I did with all of the details on the patterns. 🙂

So pretty! Love all the touches of blue. Yes, it is hot here in Georgia. Your wicker and those gorgeous prints from Kirklands would fit in my home very well, so send them on over when you tire of them. :)Thank you for sharing your pretty Southern home!
Happy Summer!
