Atlanta Attractions Archives

I’ve been meaning to make a visit to the Waiting On Martha Home (WOMH) store and last Saturday I was finally able to see the store in person. WOMH was the starting point for the Thrift With Tyler event that I attended. The store was the perfect spot to get me inspired for a day of shopping.

Waiting on Martha Home is located in Smyrna, GA in the Vinings Jubilee shopping center. It’s a must-see home decor and gift store for those of you living in the Atlanta area.

Upon entering the store, I had to clutch my wallet because this is definitely a place where I could drop a few coins.

The store is warm and inviting and there are intriguing vignettes in every corner.

WOMH carries an array of products including furniture, decor, gifts and fashion accessories. And if you love to entertain, there’s a great assortment of bar and tabletop items perfect for every entertaining occasion. I was especially smitten with the linens and will be going back to order some of the gorgeous monogrammed napkins.

Shopping for unique gifts can be challenging but the store had a great selection of items for both men and women.

I’m a sucker for coffee table books and loved the selection.

I’m a fan of Mandy, the owner of WOMH and like me, she has a love affair with blue and white. She’s made sure to stock the shelves with both traditional and whimsical blue and white decor.

WOMH carries a small selection of apparel and fashion accessories that are on-trend pieces and affordable. This round bag caught my eye and would be perfect for summer weekends running around town.

Guys, this is just a small sampling of the items you’ll find in the WOMH store. To see more of what’s available, check out the online shop. And for even more shopping fun, you can shop WOMH on Instagram.

I hope you get a chance visit the store–I know you’ll love it as much as I do.

Thanks for joining me today on the blog.

I’ll be back tomorrow with a fun entertaining post as part of a Spring Soiree blog hop that I’m participating in. See you then!

Hi there and Happy Monday!

I hope your weekend was a good one. The hubs and I continued our weekend road trips, exploring the cities surrounding Atlanta. On Saturday morning we headed north of Atlanta towards Cumming to check out some antique stores and see the countryside. It’s amazing that how much beautiful land is still untouched just outside Atlanta.

We stopped at a few local antique and thrift stores and found some treasures along the way. I scored on some wonderful ironstone pieces, a large (and heavy) brass pineapple, some milk glass and red tole trays. It was a good antiquing day.

On Sunday I set out to practice my photography and take photos for this weeks class lesson. I wanted to take photos of something unique and different so that first place we headed was Oglethorpe University. If you’ve never been on the school grounds you need to plan a visit and walk around. The architecture is amazing and you feel like you have been thrust into mid-evil times.

Directly behind the campus commons building is this handmade iron globe fire pit that sits in the middle of a ring of chairs. It was fun photographing this piece.

After leaving Oglethorpe we made our way over to Chamblee Antique Row and I found this pretty fountain to photograph. I’m learning how to use all the settings on the camera and was able to capture the water in motion.

Our last stop was at the Chastain Horse Park. I’ve loved horses ever since I was little so taking these photos and petting the horses was a real treat.

This white horse was so sweet and just kept nuzzling me. I think she wanted to come home with me.

There were about 25 horses in the stables and this next one stood because of its eyes. One eye was light and the other was dark.

I could have stayed there all afternoon taking photos of these beautiful animals.

The hubs likes horses as much a I do and after spending the afternoon with these horses, he made the decision to take riding lessons. I’m looking forward to him starting class and creating some great moments for me to capture on film.

I’ve got some great design post planned for this week so I’ll see you back here tomorrow!
