The Kitchen Update Vision

ByColleen Philpot August 14, 2023August 14, 2023

It’s probably typical in most families for renovations or projects to happen in stages. We’re no different. Each room in our house has gone through a series of changes as we’ve had the resources (money, time, etc.) to be able to tackle them. This week, we’re officially starting what I perceive as the final leg…

Choosing a Kitchen/Sun Room Paint Color

ByColleen Philpot August 9, 2023August 9, 2023

My paint indecision is well documented. I have several lockers full of sample paints as evidence. And choosing a kitchen paint color is no different. To back up, we first painted the tongue-and-groove walls of our cottage between September 2015 and April 2016. At the time, the only two rooms that didn’t get a coat…

Cozy Camp: Identifying Hot Spots

ByColleen Philpot July 26, 2023July 25, 2023

Yesterday, we kicked off Cozy Camp on our social media channels with a chat about coziness and one of the most important parts of establishing coziness: creating order. One of the biggest deterrents to order is clutter, and today we’re talking about how to identify “Hot Spots,” or those places where clutter gathers. In case…

A Spring Sunroom Refresh

ByColleen Philpot March 25, 2022April 27, 2023

I’m convinced that the reason “spring cleaning” is a thing is because there is something deep within us that craves freshness as the temperatures begin to warm. Maybe it’s that we combat the rising heat, the increasing pollen, and the mounting rainy season with spaces that feel open, organized, and pretty. This week, I loved…

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!
