TRANSFORMATION TUESDAY Well, folks, just look at this makeover…GARDENS are GOOD MEDICINE for the mind, the body and the soul. We started on this in early January, here and there, when we had an extra day to work on it. It has been the most pleasurable, fun project in a long time, because we get to hear all the compliments from customers. Many of our gardens are only seen by the owners, or their closest friends, whereas this is open to the public, and boy do they just 💙 it! So PROUD! What do you think about this? Not only a cool place but the food is OUTSTANDING! 🕺💥🇺🇸 @andrews211cloverlane @211_clover_lane #garden #gardenmakeover #gardeninspiration #transformation #tramsformationtuesday #beforeandafter #ilovemyjob #ilovemycrew #proud #work #design #designer #carloftisstyle

BOTHERUM, circa 1851, is a living lesson of how to preserve our historic grand homes here in Kentucky, while still having creature comforts that make a house a HOME. There are still tickets left to come tour the GARDENS and Inside as well, all to raise money for @nationalgarden The Garden Club of Kentucky so they can sustain their historic HQ in Paris, KY as well as many other good things for Kentucky. There are so many lessons here that you will see and be able to take home and do your version on your property. Buy tickets today for your loved one, yourself, or anyone who loves HISTORY, INTERIORS, ARCHITECTURE, BEAUTY and meet some nice folks, including my big Sis @carcillec.burchette who just changed the guard from president to Southeastern US director. Order now! Won’t be doing this again for another decade. Looking forward to seeing y’all at Botherum!

TRANSFORMATION TUESDAY It doesn’t make you a bad

TRANSFORMATION TUESDAY It doesn’t make you a bad person to let the garden go when you are busy juggling kids, jobs, life. In fact, it happens to most people at some point. What keeps me going, gives me deep satisfaction, is when they call me and I transform their lives. As @arethafranklin used to sing, “Ain’t know doctor with degree, you betta think. Think. Think ‘Bout what you trying to do to me…”. I’m certainly no doctor (but was called Dr. LOVE after a beer blast at a party @universityofky 😩🤣🤣🤣🕺) but do help people in the best way, getting them outside to enjoy their home. This belongs to @cnaturebell who is executive director @hwmuseum and is a dear friend. Now folks, what do you think about THIS transformation? Can you believe it? 💪💪💪🇺🇸 #carloftisstyle #ilovemyjob #gardendesigner #gardeninspiration #gardenideas #kentucky #transformationtuesday #transformstion #beforeandafter #bam

HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY! First of all, don’t know h

HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY! First of all, don’t know how you do it. I thought my ole lady Lily Carloftis would train Baby Mags like she did Baby Gerts, but, when she arrived in swaddling clothes 🥰, wouldn’t let her within two feet of her or me, and past away only a month into “Baby World”. Magnolia has about killed me. Talk about multi-tasking, watching, listening, smelling 😩, feeling EVERYTHING at the same time, PLUS cooking, usually the disciplinarian, the “Bad Cop” when fathers could get out of most responsibilities. Whew! And you MOTHERS with 3-4 at a time? It’s mind-boggling. But somehow you do it. 💪 There have been many influential people in my life (even the bad ones taught me a lesson), starting with Ruby, who raised all of us 6 children and did the cooking. Daddy, who taught us to respect women and wait on Momma and our sisters, hand and foot. His beloved mother, Myrtle Rhodes Karloftis who was a super successful business women when most weren’t allowed to have jobs outside the home. Mrs. Judith Brown who was my finest teacher in high school at Laurel County who pushed me into being number 1 in any class of hers or anyone else, Sharon Bale, @universityofky AG College who taught me SO MUCH, but MOMMA is the reason for EVERYTHING good in my life. She told the truth when it hurt, every time, thankfully. Expected the best out of me (never had to say a word to this boy who laid his clothes out the night before, AAA plus, over-achieving youngest of 6!) but when I said anything negative or got meaner than a pure devil (and I can if pushed into a corner 👊💥🤬), she quickly took care of that and I am THANKFUL. 🙏💙💙💙Aren’t we lucky to have someone that made us tow the line? #mothersday #happymothersday #leader #momma #mother #mothernature #carloftisstyle #thankful #boss #bosslady #beautiful

MOTHERS DAY is tomorrow and I have a GREAT idea for you… Give your Mama tickets for a garden tour I’m having here at BOTHERUM to benefit @nationalgarden Garden Club of Kentucky where my big Sis @carcillec.burchette was president the past two years and is now regional officer southeast United States. Not only will you fall in love with the gorgeous gardens and there are several on this acre and a half downtown Lexington, but you will also learn what to do in place of boxwoods that have died the past year. It will be such a nice gift to give the person that brought you into this world! #mothersday #gift #giftideas #mother #momma #mama #mamasboy #garden #gardening #gardenideas #gardeninspiration #historic #preservation #gardenclub #gardening #carloftisstyle #flowers
