belle meade plantation

while we were in tennessee visiting my "folks" we, in good ol tourist fashion, went to a plantation in nashville. belle meade was really beautiful and had amazing wine tasting (free i might add). wonderful day trip with two of the most amazing and fun people i know :)

we weren't allowed to take pictures inside, but the mansion was pretty stunning. more than anything though the property was so gorgeous! everything is just so green and the weather was perfectly overcast with a warm breeze!  just lovely.

beautiful day + amazing plantation + wonderful & hilarious people = happy lexi :)

bon voyage

Sending off my friends from one part of their lives to another, only seemed like the best excuse to do some great luggage. I knew one of my friends was dying for a vintage make up trunk, so with that idea, I got some great luggage pieces and set out to paint them. I found the make up case at an antique store in down town Clovis and the suite case at Neighborhood Thrift in Tower District.

The girls loved them and I can say that I am so proud and happy with how they turned out! It takes an already great statement piece and customizes it even more.

Congrats my beautiful friends, I can't wait to see the journey God has set before you unfold.
