Alex Anne Washington Clifton will have all the Heidi Elnora beauty at Monkee's of Huntsville this week!! Please see booking information below to book an appointment with her.
She works for me, you won't be disappointed in her fabulous service! It is a wonderful time of year for dress shopping.
XOXO!
Dodged all of this rain today at @burrittonthemountain for a beautiful and highly anticipated meeting with @oldfrond + @jessicasimmons1 | While I’m living + loving the fall season, and designing for the next, I still cannot believe this is my job!
Perusing all the @hesterandcook books for the tabletop I have coming up, oh man! My cart is full.
Wedding weekend may now commence: I have arrived.❤️
Riding off into this long weekend. Have a happy and safe Memorial Day! 🇺🇸
Today’s outdoor office brought to you by the letter P: perfect temperatures, plenty of sunshine, plus a plethora of paper and pencil.
The other evening, I saw a thread about whether or not to leave wicks unlit on new candles. Growing up, I was told the etiquette was to light them so guests would know they weren’t just for show, light being life in the home. Of course I’m now wondering what you’ve known about this, so “fire” away.
I wish people knew how often I thank the Lord for the most gentle breeze.
This room has been the focus of today’s work for two brides coming up on the calendar. I’m so glad the sun was shining for us!
Courtney’s grandfather stole my heart on their wedding day. He was always around soaking up every moment. Here he is right on cue with beverage service immediately after the ceremony, adorable!
I’m not sure that Dr. K could have ever dreamed her beloved Baker Cabinet Company table would become a staging ground for events when I’m in town including but not limited to: dried flowers, paper goods, fine china, sterling silver, velvet tablecloths, taper candles, punch bowls, runners, and menus, but...here we are.
Twirling around in circles with all of your inquiries, thank you so much! If you keep the events coming, my darling crew and I will keep them organized.

This was the sweetest day with the most laid back bride! Much love to you always @_ellie_watson
There are many time sensitive tasks at the moment, especially due to spring and summer changes with COVID. This has been quite a productive office Monday, brought to you by the comforts of @chesapeakebaycandle Bourbon Pumpkin, no less. (One of my @target fall favorites)

Found that box of leftover votives and pillar candles just begging for a cozy fireplace display! This is a wonderful way to use up those leftovers just when we all need some ambiance.
My sweet friends at @tsghuntsville asked me to make a video of what I’m doing during our current state as well as to mention some businesses who specifically have helped me in hopes to pay it forward. This video was posted on the @tsghuntsville page this weekend, but I wanted to share it here as well so that you all can hear what’s going on and send me questions if need be. Small businesses are here for you! Thank you Dawn and Sabrina for all you are doing to champion us locally!

Cheers to @kleindotco and the Junior League of Huntsville for inviting me to present this evening! We reviewed the etiquette of wardrobe, dining skills, thank you notes, and what it means to be memorable. What a lovely group; your questions at the end were the cherry on top. I truly enjoyed it more than words.
