Hiya! I feel like I've been gone for ages but it's only been a few days. It was a welcomed break but I'm so glad to be back. On Christmas Eve morning Tom and I packed up the car super early and headed south. Nothing says Happy Holidays like a fourteen hour car ride, right? But really, as soon as that blanket of snow gave way to a blanket of kudzu vines (you southerners know what I'm talkin' about) I finally started to feel the Christmas spirit. And it was so nice to leave the single digit temperatures behind for just a few days. By the time we reached South Carolina it was in the 50s and Tom and I had the windows in the car rolled down!
We spent a wonderful weekend at my parent's cabin holed up with lots of family and amazing food. My parents have a new kitten that kept us entertained all weekend long. The poor little thing is probably completely worn out from all the lovin'. Tom and I did a little exploring of a couple abandoned places - one an old cabin, the other an old train station. The little cabin is what you see here. The last time we visited we salvaged a bunch of 50s-60s soda bottles in a crate that are now sitting in the corner of our dining room. This time I salvaged an old metal basket (maybe an egg crate?) that I'm going to use for storing scarves in.

Wowww, so beautiful! I remember how lovely the photos you took last time you were home were. Oh to think of the folks who lived their lives in that little space. (I would love to see the rest of that jacket you're wearing!).

I adore old cabins! My great-grandfather lived in one in the early 1900s, but now it's in the middle of a state park in Virginia so we can't get to it anymore. I wonder the treasures I would find inside though...

Your photos are amazing. A.
Deck the halls with boughs of kudzu...
I didn't know that you were a Southern girl! I love these pictures. I see little cabins like this occasionally, but never had the courage to go inside. I will have to check one out. Thanks for the inspiration!
that abandoned cabin looks like a set for a photo shoot. rustic and lovely in its own right.
very pretty outfit. love your hat.
Your weekend sounds perfect! I need a vacation like that right now. I'm currently swamped in schoolwork... :(
You selected the best Fletcher pieces! I couldn't find much I liked, which was probably better for my wallet anyway.
I'm loving those shorts! Such a pretty location too.
