The weekend in Charleston was amazing! I was there to present at the Taste of Charleston for Southern Living. The weather was wonderful, the food was fantastic and the people were so delightful. Here are a few of my favorite photos from the wonderful weekend:
 |
| These are the old slave homes on the property of the plantation. |
 |
| Isn’t this tree-lined lane way amazing? The drive up to the old plantation home was so incredible! The Oak Trees were planted in 1743 by the son of Major John Boone. |
 |
| I presented three holiday tabletops: Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas. I am going to do posts on each of them so check back in for details. This image is from my Saturday presentation. |
 |
| Here we are back stage prepping for James Farmer’s presentation on Fall Flowers. Rebecca Reed, from Southern Living, was all smiles as they prepped! |
 |
| This was taken moments before my Sunday presentation. |
 |
| Details of James Farmer’s amazing florals which he named Austin, Houston and Dallas! |
 |
| Although I didn’t have time to eat there, HUSK was located just next to my hotel and I could see it’s charming facade out my hotel window. It is getting rave reviews and all of Charleston is buzzing about it! |
 |
| There are so many fantastic antique stores on King Street and Niche was one of my favorites. |
 |
| These amazing porcelain vegetables and the Jane Hutchison for Gorham enamel flowers above are at Vieuxtemps, a gorgeous store at 180 King Street. They have a beautiful china room in the back! Don’t miss it! |
 |
| More of James Farmers flowers backstage. Gorgeous! |
 |
| The Longhorn booth at Taste of Charleston – they were all so delicious! |
 |
| This was the presentation tent and we loved meeting all of the wonderful visitors. |
 |
| This fantastic sweetgrass basket was left as a welcome gift for me in my room. So wonderful! You can’t leave Charleston with out a sweetgrass souvenir! |
 |
| We had a delicious dinner at McCradys! I can’t wait to go back and visit Charleston again. |
Very nice! Wish y'all would come down to Biloxi MS. I used to love when they came & did the cooking shows here – wow, I'm dating myself with that one, because it has been awhile!
Love the florals y'all used.
I love Charleston and your pictures captured this unique, historical city. Love the visual Journey!
Love the post! Can I ask where you got your blue top in the post?
Thank you!
