Junior League Tour of Kitchens!

This past weekend my family came in town! We had so much fun...I don't realize how much I miss them until I get to see them! My mom was a Junior Leaguer of Monroe and came to attend the Junior League of Atlanta Tour of Kitchens with me! They had a wonderful Toast of the Tour party Friday night with the one and only Yacht Rock (Stephen and I's fave). My mom fell in love with the band immediately (a groupie at heart).

 

Mom and Stephen at the toast of the tour!

 

Yacht rock rocked all night long.

 

 Me and Stephen...please excuse my shine.

 

There was also a silent auction and I won two of these pillows from Westside Gallery (thanks mom)! They match my decor perfectly!

 

Saturday Mom and I toured the best of the best kitchens of Ansley Park, Sherwood Forest and Morningside! We had a blast, but were definitely exhausted by the end of the day!

 

Aren't the wood countertops beautiful... I have heard through the grapevine, wood is the next granite!

What are your thoughts on countertops? What's your favorite?

A little trivia....Do you know what a red door means?

In Feng Shui, a red front door means "welcome." Feng Shui is a Chinese philosophy in which the arrangement and color of objects in a room relates to the flow of energy. The front door is known as the "Mouth of Chi" where energy enters. If you believe in or follow Feng Shui, painting your front door red would create welcoming energy.
A red door means "welcome" in an old early American tradition. If a family had a red front door tired travelers traveling by horse and buggy would know that a home was a welcoming place to rest. They would be able to spend the night there.
A red door provides protection. In Biblical times, the Hebrew slaves were instructed to smear blood of a lamb on their front doors to protect their first born from the angel of death. In old Catholicism churches painted the doors of the church red to represent the blood of Christ. Passing through the door would mean that you were on holy ground. Some believe a red door protects the occupants from evil.
A red front door means mortgage-free. In Scotland, homeowners would paint their front door red to signify that they had paid off their mortgage.

 

Beautiful arched door ways throughout!
