SOUTHERN LIVING IDEA HOUSE - SNEAK PEEK

Last week I was honored to be part of a blogger exclusive sneak peek of the Southern Living Idea House located on the Fontanel property in Nashville.  For those of you that don't know, Fontanel is the previous home of country music star, Barbara Mandrell.  The Idea House opened on June 29th and will be open to the public through December.  After that, the plans are to use the structure as a bed and breakfast/events facility.  We were only allowed to take pictures of the exterior, dining and guest cottages because the full property will be featured in next months Southern Living.

One of my favorite features was the Ann Sacks tile used in the Master Bath.  
You need to see it in person to appreciate it.
