Pampered + Country Living Fair Tickets

October 11, 2016 By Karen Cooper 13 Comments

You know, some women pamper themselves with a trip to the spa.

Others get a massage or pedicure.

Me? I hire painters…

Hiring painters is my idea of living in luxury - thediybungalow.com

Seriously, y’all…this is living the good life.

Normally, I do all the painting around here. But after I hurt my ankle, all painting projects around here stopped. I still am shaky going up ladders, so I knew I couldn’t get the painting done.

I was starting to get anxious about how I had started the guest bath project and it was still undone. The paint swatches were still on the walls, as were the pencil sketches of board and batten. I wanted the guest bathroom project finished and, while I was hiring painters anyway, I figured they could do the other lingering paint projects: my kitchen ceiling, the dining room, the kids hallway, and the breakfast room.

I’ll give you all the details on the paint colors and everything once it’s finished. But it’s awesome. It’s making me so, so happy.

And, while we’re on the subject of pampering, how about a day to yourself? One where you can shop, eat good food, even try out for Flea Market Flip???

The Country Living Fair is one of my favorite festivals in Atlanta! Usually the weather is cool and lovely, and there is great shopping, delicious food, and interesting speakers and demonstrations. This year, the speakers include Amie and Jolie Sikes, The Junk Gypsies, launching their new book; Cari Cucksey (from HGTV’s Cash & Cari); Denise Sabia (from The Painted Home blog); and more!  And you can audition for Flea Market Flip!

It’s a great way to spend a day just for YOU!

    Oh my goodness I’d love to go to the Country Living Fair. I live about an hour and a half outside of Atlanta…….it would be like a kid in a candy shop!

    Oh and I’m eagerly awaiting your professional paint project reveal.

    I look forward to the Country Living Fair ALL. YEAR. LONG! lol! It’s such a great day! And this year I hear they’re are doing auditions for the Flea Market Flip, which I love! I don’t think I’ll be doing any auditions though….I’m pretty sure I would freeze up when it came time to be creative. 🙂

    I am so excited that this year, my workload is allowing me to go ~ or maybe I should say “lack of workload.” There is just no reason why I can’t go this year! YAY! I just had a closing and new clients will not be closing for a while.
    Hope to see you there !!!

        I don’t want to take up too much of your time but sooo glad you traded in your suits for power tools and DIY. We have a Habitat Women Build here and it is so empowering to build homes with Women Only. As men are not onsite, and don’t get all the power tools, we learn so much. I now have a garage full of power tools, so much so, that with our new house plans or should I say Metal Barn plans, my husband would not agree to me Not having a separate shop ~ he has warned “No tools in the garage!”

        See you there ~ now get to work 🙂 G

          First of all, take up my time! Don’t be silly! Second, that is AWESOME! I love that!! When we moved to this house, Dear Husband and I agreed that the shed would be my workshop/tool storage! I think that the first time I was exposed to power tools was on a Habitat build. Such a great organization. Thank you for sharing that!! kbc
