2018 was a rough year for Topsail Island! Hurricane Florence really made an impact and damaged homes, eroded the beaches and destroyed businesses and rental properties. We have been rebuilding here and waiting patiently for reliable trades people. It is getting close now! Businesses have been opening and homes are being repaired. It is great to see the birds and wildlife returning as well. 2019 is hopefully a time of renewal and new beginnings! I have partnered with several other designers here on Topsail Island to open a store front called Inlet Blue. We have new pieces for your home as well as upcycled painted furniture, artwork, lighting and rugs. I hope that anyone who reads this will come by and visit and say hello. We are starting new!

It is Easter this morning! The sun is shining and we have a bird in our backyard tree that has been singing. I am on my back porch with coffee and my dogs and it looks like it is going to be such a beautiful day! This holiday reminds us we can start over and bring new life to the world around us, that even though things may be challenging or dark sometimes, there is always a coming light. Gratitude doesn’t seem like a big enough word today, for all the blessings and new beginnings in my life.  I hope everyone has a wonderful Easter holiday and can find a way to see the possibilities!
