Jane Coslick Cottage Tour ~ Cottage 4 upstairs

Welcome to the upstairs of  Breeze Inn Cottage
the Tybee home of author Mary Kay Andrews

today we are heading upstairs 3 bedrooms and 2 baths

these great old beach photos lined the stairwell

bedroom # 1 was bright, light and airy
I loved the dresser and the flamingo picture

this little Christmas tree was awesome

my girlfriend Bobbie loved the santa, I loved the sweet little lamp

bedroom # 2
3 beds within jumping distance apart...
don't you know kids just love this room

crushing on all the red

bedroom #3 the master
love the suitcases and I really wanted to sneak
 that hat box home with me

off the master was an office area and the master bath
aren't the floors fabulous

how about that typewriter, phone and the fan lamp

anyone know if Miss Mary Kay got that
Vintage CHERRY red Porsche for Christmas

yummy master bath... can I just say I hate seeing toilet lids up
 it seems like every tour we do anymore they are up...

NO WORDS...
Ok maybe one pure awesomeness oh well that was two ..

it was a great master bath

heading down the stairs were these cute framed vintage bathing suits and on the last step it said Beach with an arrow.

Seaside Sister  is a cute shop on Tybee that Miss Mary Kay
has lots of funky, vintage stuff in it.
If you head to Tybee you have to stop by.
 If I could have got that Tybee sign out
 of there without anyone noticing ...

More " Tybee Chic " ... coming soon...

Attention Miss Judy that left me this message

Hello, Cherry,I am the new owner of a house on Tybee that has a tiny yard around it and practically nothing growing. Would love to see a plant list that you suggest as possibilities for me to consider.

BTW: love your blog!Judy

I would love to make that list for you please email me @ Cherryd6@gmail.com and put Tybee Judy in the subject line so I will be sure to get it. Because you commented as Anonymous 
I can't contact you.. 

all of the proceeds from this wonderful benefit are being donated to The Savannah Humane Society Low Cost Community Spay Neuter Clinic that Miss Jane and friends are trying very hard to get up and running.

If you can please help.. You can donate cash to help with the low cost spay and neuter clinic or you can donate your time to the shelter, you can also drop off supplies.. food, blankets and cleaning supplies are always welcomed, and one of my favorites is shopping and donating to

The Pick of the Litter Thrift Shop.

Hope ya'll enjoyed cottage number 4 ..  

hugs and happy Saturday everyone, Cherry

finally an " about me " page

This blog is almost 5 years old and I have never done an " about me page "

Hope I don't scare ya'll off. 

Who is Cherry...

born in Savannah, Georgia

I hated my name most of my childhood now I think everything Cherry is cool... yes Cherry is my real name

I'm as southern as you can get.. I say ya'll, not y'all.. right or wrong I do it

I say yes sir, please, thank you and I bless a few hearts every so often

middle child to the best parents in the entire world 

Air Force brat

I cuss 

say my prayers

and I'm still trying to figure out how I got to be in my 50's

I'm a daddy's girl forever and I strive to be half the woman my momma is.. 

I'm a true believer that simple is perfect, new and improve does not make it better and if I could be a kid again I'd do it in a heartbeat.. 

I'm a singer, I weigh 125 pounds, I'm 5'7 and have long auburn ringlets... 

Oh hell wait ...That's my wish list.

see I cuss...

things I adore

the hubby, he still makes me giggle and blush... 

our rescue kitty's 

family, it's all about family
girlfriends, without them life would be boring
home, the best days are spent piddling at home

taking pictures

playing in the dirt

cooking

painting

boiled peanuts, vodka in my lemon aid, breakfast for supper, sitting on the beach in the winter time, riding our motorcycle, finding treasures from the past, office supplies... I know I'm a little off ... a new pen, paper clips they make me happy, art supplies, all art supplies make me giddy....

my grandmother's embroidered pieces 

big porches with rockers and swings

fried chicken, could eat it everyday

and anything with cheese on it

if I only had a few minutes to get my stuff and run, I would grab...

my Bible

kitty's

photo albums

my favorite cast iron skillet

my daddy's flannel pj's 

and my brother's Clivia plant

on my ipod

Gary Allen, Bob Seiger, CCR,  Aaron Nevils, Cheap Trick, Patty Loveless, Steve Miller, Captain and Tennille, Gregg Almond, Suzy Bogguss, 

The Carpenters, Kid Rock, Georgia Satellites, The Eagles, Alabama, Conway, Elton, Rod, George, Tammy, Elvis, Molly Hatch, Sara Evans, Bee Gees, Marshall Tucker, Boston, K.T Oslin, Fleetwood Mac, Lynyrd Skynyrd, and Poco's ~ Crazy Love 

I sing loud, off key, make up lyrics and think I'm Stevie Nicks

about the blog

I wish I could say I have a vast wealth of knowledge about all things to share, but... the truth is it's just a place to share what I love.. 

What started out as a garden journal has turned into a keeper of time and memories. A way for me to share myself, my home, family, friends and Savannah with you.

I hope there is something here that you enjoyed, something that made you smile or laugh and that you will come visit often..

big hugs from me to you, Cherry
