We’re having a blast at Blissdom! This is me and my roomies (Shannon with Southern Beauty and Christy with SouthernPlate) getting ready to check in at the Gaylord Opryland, which is an experience in itself. I just adore these girls, we are some of the GRITS contingent from Alabama, for sure.
It’s such a beautiful place to have a conference and hang out for a few days. Bliss indeed!
The home-y girls were in full force and it’s been so much fun to meet many more of them this time around. How many of these girls do you recognize? From left to right:
Emily - Chatting at the Sky
Emily – Remodeling this Life
Lindsay – Living with Lindsay
Melissa – The Inspired Room
ME
The Nester – Nesting Place
Sandy – Reluctant Entertainer
Kimba – A Soft Place to Land
Jen – Balancing Beauty and Bedlam
Laryssa – L. Herbert Designs
Gina – Shabby Chic Cottage
Of course, I have a ton of pics to share, so you’ll hear much more about the conference later. We’re still in the middle of sessions.
One of the highlights last night was this guy, a personal concert just for us Blissdom girls!
Recognize this guy? Yep, Harry Connick, Jr. sang just for us and it was SO great. The concert got moved to Friday night because Harry has been invited to sing at the Super Bowl.
Yippee! Go Saints!
Be back soon!
Thanks for stopping by! I'm Rhoda, from Atlanta, GA and I love decorating and DIY projects. Decorating a home doesn't have to cost a fortune and I've spent years thrifting at antiques markets and yardsales, finding those treasures that make a home unique. I'm here to inspire and encourage other women to find their own inner creativity. Won't you join me?
