Valentine’s Day Breakfast Menu

ByColleen Philpot February 2, 2024February 2, 2024

With Valentine’s Day falling on the first day of Lent this year, our family’s evening activities will involve our church’s annual Ash Wednesday service. That meant any sort of family observance was going to involve breakfast. Today, I tested out our table setting, and I adore how it turned out. I tried to stay away…

4th of July Gathering Guide

ByColleen Philpot June 26, 2023June 26, 2023

We’re a week away from July 4th festivities! In our part of Florida, the holiday kicks off with the opening of scalloping season on July 1. We’ll spend the weekend gathering with family and friends for boating, harvesting scallops, and tooling around on the lake. And it will all culminate on the 4th of July!…

A Sweet Garden Tablescape

ByColleen Philpot March 8, 2023March 10, 2023

Our garden projects are starting to wrap up for the time being, and while I wait to plant, I’ve been inspired to creatively play in the space. I wanted to create a little garden tablescape that pays homage to simple spring gatherings in the garden. I wanted a color story that played to all the…

Patriotic Party Summer Mantel

ByColleen Philpot July 1, 2019April 27, 2023

I’m always so thankful that God saw fit to create a world in which the seasons change. It’s so symbolic of our lives. Just when things get to be too much in one season, things invariably shift, and we find ourselves in new territory. Being that I’m a teacher, I look forward to summer and…

Superhero Birthday Party

ByColleen Philpot June 17, 2019June 17, 2019

When I asked my son what kind of birthday party he wanted at the end of winter, I cringed when he answered, “A superhero birthday party.” Basically, I knew nothing about superheroes: who they were, their storylines, Marvel vs. DC. Total newb. All I knew was that one minute my kiddo was The Flash, jetting…

Natural Neutral Baby Shower

ByColleen Philpot January 18, 2019March 5, 2019

It was an honor to throw a baby shower for my sister-in-law’s sweet boy, Brady. Because this was her third child and she wanted a simple affair, I wanted the decor to match that. I decided to throw a shower anchored by lots of creamy whites and fresh greenery. A natural neutral baby shower, if…

Our sweet community showed up for Small Business S Our sweet community showed up for Small Business Saturday, and we honestly couldn’t be more thankful for your support of this little dream we have of helping others create a home they never want to leave. We love hearing that our story, our passion for home, and our little shop resonate with you all! 

While we also continue to have so many fun Christmas treasures to make this the coziest month of the year, we also have so many incredible pieces to give as gifts. Over the next few weeks, we’ll be sharing many thoughtful, intentional gift-giving ideas that include heirloom pieces made to last.

I tell everyone who asks that our brick and mortar I tell everyone who asks that our brick and mortar shop is the result of ten years of dreaming. But really, it’s the result of a husband who loves his wife crazy big. He had listened to her share her vision for a sweet space where lovers of home could find thoughtfully curated pieces to cozy up their corners of the world. A destination for folks to be inspired to create warm, “homey” spaces. A retreat from the frenzied pace and concerns of a modern world. A reflection of our own little cottage that we had shared online for the last few years.

When the time came to take a leap and actually do the thing that had been dreamed and talked over nearly to death, he mustered courage enough for both to turn that dream into the sweetest reality. 

Maybe you see a little of yourselves in one of us. A timid dreamer. A courageous encourager. Creative. Homebody.

Because ultimately, we’re regular folks, just like you. And like so many others who have thrown open the doors to small shops, bakeries, and cafes in communities all across the country. 

This holiday season, small business owners will try to find ways to compete with big box stores. While you may save a few pennies by purchasing mass-produced, questionably-made items, when you support small businesses, you’re choosing to value curated experiences, personal touches, and the dream of regular folks looking to bring beauty into the very communities they call home.

As you make your shopping lists and check them twice, we hope that you’ll make The Southern Azalea your first stop on your hunt for one-of-a-kind gifts for all of the regular folks in your life. 

We’re so deeply thankful for every like, every share, every message, every purchase, and every kind word on this shop journey. But most of all, we’re thankful for you. 

If you’re local to Inverness, Florida, we hope to see you at our Small Business Saturday sale tomorrow!
