Weekend getaway idea: Downtown Brevard, North Caro Weekend getaway idea: Downtown Brevard, North Carolina might be the cutest small town in the mountains and I can’t believe it took me this long to explore it! 🤍

A couple of weeks ago, we spent the day in downtown Brevard and instantly fell in love. Think charming antique stores, cozy coffee shops, local bookstores, amazing restaurants, and the kind of walkable Main Street that makes you want to slow down and stay awhile. If you’re planning a trip to Brevard, NC, especially if you’re visiting near Asheville or the Blue Ridge Mountains, this little mountain town absolutely needs to be on your list.

I put together a full blog post with all the best things to do in Brevard, NC (where to eat, shop, and explore), so you can plan the perfect weekend getaway.

POV: You’re not sad… POV: It’s 30 degrees and sno POV: You’re not sad…

POV: It’s 30 degrees and snowing… but I’m mentally at the beach with 80-degree weather, a fresh tan, my toes in the water, and Morgan Wallen turned ALL the way up. 🌊☀️

Tell me I’m not the only one who thinks sunshine + country music + salty air is actual therapy?! Give me a beach chair, a good summer read, and a speaker blasting my favorite Morgan Wallen songs and I’m instantly fixed. 😂

We had a little taste of spring this weekend (it hit 70 degrees and felt amazing), and now we’re right back to freezing temps and snow. So if you need me, I’ll just be over here manifesting summer vacation, beach days, and warm weather vibes.

Anyone else already dreaming about their next beach trip? 🏖️✨ #morganwallen #beachvacay #beachsunset #sunsetvibes #vacationvibes

You know you’ve officially entered ✨prime adulthoo You know you’ve officially entered ✨prime adulthood✨ when renting a dumpster feels like a THRILL. 🤣

Nothing, and I mean nothing, hits quite like tossing years of random junk into a giant metal box and watching the clutter disappear. Our garage and basement were crying for help, and this purge just gave us the ultimate clean-slate reset. 🙌🏼

If you think you’re “late” taking down your Christ If you think you’re “late” taking down your Christmas decor… just know I still have fall decor on my back porch 😅🍂

Yes. In February.

In my defense, it’s been a freezing winter, I ran out of storage bins while packing up my fall decorations, and once it got cold? I simply ✨chose peace✨ instead of porch cleanup 😂

But with the warmer weather finally rolling in, it’s officially time for a spring porch refresh! 🌸🌿 Goodbye pumpkins, hello spring decor, outdoor living, and fresh seasonal styling.

Anyone else still transitioning their seasonal home decor, or am I alone in my fall-to-spring glow up? 😜 #seasonaldecor #relatablereels #dontjudgeme #springdecor #porchdecor

By the time I thought about pulling out my Valentine’s Day home decor, it was already February and only a few days away, so I figured what was the point of dragging everything out for such a short time?! 🤣

How I am Celebrating After Hitting 20K on Instagram

Well y’all, I can’t believe it, but I actually hit 20K this year on Instagram. It was my goal to hit it by the end of the year, but I never thought I would actually be able to do it. But yet, here we are! I am so excited! So I thought I would share with you all how I am celebrating after hitting 20K on Instagram.

I figured it would be fun to do something similar for when I hit 10K followers back in February this year. I wanted to partner up with some of my favorite small shops and do a fun little giveaway for one lucky person!

I figured it would be perfect to partner with my favorite small shops for this since it has been such a rough year for them.

How I am Celebrating After Hitting 20K on Instagram
All the cute little goodies from my favorite small shops!

Small Shops I Am Partnering Up With:

  • Antique Candle Co
  • Rodworks Asheville
  • Real Honeybrook
  • Ebenezer Market

These shops are all the ones that I have worked with throughout this past year and throughout my time on Instagram.

I wanted to be able to share with a lucky winner the great things that these particular shops offer. I know their quality is amazing because I have received and bought many items from their shops personally as well!

Antique Candle Co

Y’all know that my love for candles runs deep and my love for this particular candle company runs even deeper!

I used to be a huge Bath and Body Works candle person, but ever since I started burning Antique Candle Co candles, I have never went back!

Their quality and care that they put into each candle is amazing and I cannot say enough great things about their awesome customer service as well.

Homemade Gingerbread Christmas Candle
Homemade Gingerbread is another favorite scent of mine too!

Plus, you can’t go wrong with any of their scents! Their Christmas scents are my favorite to burn right now and they definitely put me in the holiday spirit.

If you haven’t had a candle from them, you are surely missing out!

Tree Farm Candle
Tree Farm is my favorite Christmas scent from them!

Rodworks Asheville

I have been lucky enough to meet one of my Instagram friends in real life and she just so happens to run this amazing store! Rodworks has so many cute things to choose from.

Not only do they have the best seasonal pieces, but they also offer the best selection of everyday home decor too.

Christmas Coffee Bar
My Christmas coffee bar is styled with a lot of goodies from Rodworks Asheville. Like that cute hot chocolate sign in the middle!

I was able to partner up with her and become a brand rep for her and her store this year and it has been so much fun!

I thought it would be perfect to team up together for this giveaway so someone else could experience just how many awesome items she has to offer as well!

COTTAGES & BUNGALOW FLAT 30% OFF ON DIGITAL SUBSCRIPTION

Real Honey Brook

I love to be able to showcase her shop and her amazing talent. She has the best decorating abilities too!

Office Christmas Shelves
Those cute little vintage envelopes with the bow on the bottom shelf are from Crafty Home by Missy. She sells a lot of antique goodies in her shop too!

Ebenezer Market

I have shared Ebenezer Market in the past as well and I just love their designs! All their signs are handmade and they definitely put extra care and quality into their work!

I have several signs from them and I continue to use them throughout my home for decoration. They have both seasonal and everyday signs to choose from as well!

Utilize Open Shelving
This cute little bathroom sign on the top shelf is from Ebenezer Market and I use it year round for my bathroom decor!

Weekend getaway idea: Downtown Brevard, North Caro Weekend getaway idea: Downtown Brevard, North Carolina might be the cutest small town in the mountains and I can’t believe it took me this long to explore it! 🤍

A couple of weeks ago, we spent the day in downtown Brevard and instantly fell in love. Think charming antique stores, cozy coffee shops, local bookstores, amazing restaurants, and the kind of walkable Main Street that makes you want to slow down and stay awhile. If you’re planning a trip to Brevard, NC, especially if you’re visiting near Asheville or the Blue Ridge Mountains, this little mountain town absolutely needs to be on your list.

I put together a full blog post with all the best things to do in Brevard, NC (where to eat, shop, and explore), so you can plan the perfect weekend getaway.

Comment “Brevard” below and I’ll send you the link! #brevard #brevardnc #smalltownlife #weekendgetaways #blueridgemountains
POV: You’re not sad… POV: It’s 30 degrees and sno POV: You’re not sad…

POV: It’s 30 degrees and snowing… but I’m mentally at the beach with 80-degree weather, a fresh tan, my toes in the water, and Morgan Wallen turned ALL the way up. 🌊☀️

Tell me I’m not the only one who thinks sunshine + country music + salty air is actual therapy?! Give me a beach chair, a good summer read, and a speaker blasting my favorite Morgan Wallen songs and I’m instantly fixed. 😂

We had a little taste of spring this weekend (it hit 70 degrees and felt amazing), and now we’re right back to freezing temps and snow. So if you need me, I’ll just be over here manifesting summer vacation, beach days, and warm weather vibes.

Anyone else already dreaming about their next beach trip? 🏖️✨ #morganwallen #beachvacay #beachsunset #sunsetvibes #vacationvibes

You know you’ve officially entered ✨prime adulthoo You know you’ve officially entered ✨prime adulthood✨ when renting a dumpster feels like a THRILL. 🤣

Nothing, and I mean nothing, hits quite like tossing years of random junk into a giant metal box and watching the clutter disappear. Our garage and basement were crying for help, and this purge just gave us the ultimate clean-slate reset. 🙌🏼

Tell me I’m not the only one who gets this excited over a dumpster rental… because this might be my favorite era yet. 😜

If you think you’re “late” taking down your Christ If you think you’re “late” taking down your Christmas decor… just know I still have fall decor on my back porch 😅🍂

Yes. In February.

In my defense, it’s been a freezing winter, I ran out of storage bins while packing up my fall decorations, and once it got cold? I simply ✨chose peace✨ instead of porch cleanup 😂

But with the warmer weather finally rolling in, it’s officially time for a spring porch refresh! 🌸🌿 Goodbye pumpkins, hello spring decor, outdoor living, and fresh seasonal styling.

Anyone else still transitioning their seasonal home decor, or am I alone in my fall-to-spring glow up? 😜 #seasonaldecor #relatablereels #dontjudgeme #springdecor #porchdecor

I’ll be honest… I didn’t really decorate for Valen I’ll be honest… I didn’t really decorate for Valentine’s Day this year 😂 These photos are from last year’s Valentine’s Day coffee bar setup, and it’s still one of my favorite little seasonal decor moments. By the time I thought about pulling out my Valentine’s Day home decor, it was already February and only a few days away, so I figured what was the point of dragging everything out for such a short time?! 🤣

Now I’m that girl who still has all her winter home decor up and is slowly dreaming about switching over to spring decor ideas soon 🌸 Anyone else behind on seasonal decorating too? #coffeebar #coffeebardecor #coffeenook #coffeestation #valentinesdaydecor

But it makes sense because honestly the way my body treats me all the time is inappropriate 🤣 It’s so rude to me! lol but anyways, so glad to finally start getting more answers… and here are some Easy Valentine’s Day Cookies! 💗🍪
