SHOP LOCAL and BUY from GOOD PEOPLE is always a wi

SHOP LOCAL and BUY from GOOD PEOPLE is always a wise decision… In a little over 3 weeks, the 3 floors of my Carriage House were emptied, painted, fixed and furnished, ready to be put on @airbnb Monday, August 22nd. People ask how on earth could you do it this quickly? Well, I absolutely DON’T mess around and make it happen! 👊🕺🇺🇸 Plus, I’ve really no training in anything but can do most everything if I take a notion, and do it well. Similar to designing a garden, I have a general idea but while it is in the works, delete certain things, move things around, whatever it takes to get it to where it needs to be. It’s how I can cook for 20 people at the drop of a hat…choose fresh, good quality things I love like GARLIC, ONIONS, CHICKEN THIGHS,,and ya can’t go wrong! Got this amazing mid-century Teak furniture set for free when I purchased the original summer kitchen to Botherum this spring. Had my guys clean it up, oil it and called my fabulous friend @alexkmason @ferrickmason what fabrics she had in stock to cover it. She designs, paints and sells really SPECIAL fabrics and wallpaper. PLUS, if if possible, always support my friends so it will bring nice memories of them every time I look at it. She texted me different designs and as soon as I saw Lyle in Reverse Gray, I said, DONE! She delivered it to me and I ran it over to my upholster person. Just picked it up this morning…isn’t this room DREAMY? #carloftisstyle #botherum #carriagehouse #poolhouse #lexingtonky #newventure #recycle #friends #interiordesign #interior #interiors

BIG NEWS about to happen at BOTHERUM! The last fe

BIG NEWS about to happen at BOTHERUM! The last few years have been like a novel, so unbelievable that I wake up and think, “Did all this really happen?” Losing my beloved MOMMA at age 92, then the next week was shutdown for the “Pandemics”, then being diagnosed with aggressive cancer this spring AND the ongoing $$$ totally unnecessary litigation for 4 years. The only thing that pulled me through it was my WORK which has never been better or busier. AND, coming home to garden every night with my Girl-Rillas. Folks, I’ve made it through the worst and I’m coming out of it so much better and smarter! After much thought, I’ve decided to let other folks experience waking up in my gorgeous garden through AirBNB at the newly renovated CARRIAGE HOUSE with the best looking saltwater pool and gardens. Starting Monday, August 22, information will be available on how to book it. I’m so excited for this new venture! It will be an UNFORGETTABLE experience, you can bet on that… STAY TUNED! 💪🇺🇸💙 #carloftisstyle #botherum #carriagehouse #newbeginnings #goals #betterthanever #special #historic #garden #gardendesigner #newventure

SO HERE IS WHAT MAKES ME TRULY HAPPY…when ya bui

SO HERE IS WHAT MAKES ME TRULY HAPPY…when ya build a garden/transform a home/redo stone terraces just last year in Louisville, and they send you photos of it. I get them everyday from clients who are now “involved” with their outdoor spaces, whereas before, it was something to look out onto from inside. This, THIS, is what makes me wake up in the morning, work like a damn dawg, and get that good feeling (they say runners get that same feeling, but I only run to @graeters @dudleys1981 @selmascatering @richieschicken and don’t break a sweat. 👊) Folks, making people HAPPY is what makes me HAPPY! Do you like the lighting and transformation here? 💪💪💪🇺🇸🕺 #carloftisstyle #ilovemyjob #garden #gardendesigner #outdoorlighting #louisville #kentucky #proud #hobby #transformation #beforeandafter

TRANSFORMATION TUESDAY! Just think, 10 years and a

TRANSFORMATION TUESDAY! Just think, 10 years and a whole lotta hard work has turned this BEAUTIFUL LADY into a showplace. I loved it the way it was before, so romantic and full of mystery, yet Daddy needs some LUXURY in his life… It needed to be updated to make life easier and comfortable, because we aren’t living in a museum. At least I’m not! I love mixing funky 70’s, glamorous 30’s, Empire 1800’s and a MODERN BATHROOM and KITCHEN! 💪💪💪. If we want to save these treasures, they have to be respectfully “transformed” while preserving all of the architectural elements that make them unforgettable. After bartending one party here in college in 1987, I have never forgotten Botherum and I’m so GRATEFUL to keep it and continue making it the BEST it can possibly be…earlier this year, diagnosed with aggressive cancer, I didn’t think I would even be here today and thanks to Dr. Strup @universityofky @ukhealthcare I AM CANCER FREE!. Folks, don’t give up, stay positive (get RID of negative people in your life 👊), concentrate on your goals, work like a dawg, LOVE the people, animals and your work like it’s your very last day on this AMAZING EARTH! Now, what do ya think about this before/after? I think it is pure HEAVEN. 💙💙💙🙏♌️🇺🇸 #carloftisstyle #transformationtuesday #transformation #beforeandafter #botherum #historic #dreamsdocometrue #goals #workethic #restoration #lexingtonky #happy #grateful #love
