We stopped in Savannah for lunch on our way to Beaufort and ate at Soho South Cafe. The colors in this painting on the wall made my heart happy. If the girl in the painting had a blog I would be a fan for sure. Oh and the lunch was great too!
We visited a couple of shops in Port Royale which is just next to Beaufort. Don't you love the colors on these?
This store in Port Royale was really fun too.
A metal bench with metal flowers behind it sat on the front porch.
Inside the "kitchen" section of the shop
A fun window display. I wanted to take home that yellow table that had chairs to match.
Isn't this planter cute? Definitely an idea worth copying :)
A wind chime made of pots and pans hung outside.
Next time I'll take you for a stroll through Beaufort and show you some of the beautiful homes. Wait until you see them. They are amazing!Meanwhile today I am starting to machine quilt a king size quilt , a big job that I'm not looking forward to, but I've put it off for as long as I can. I've got some relaxing music playing which I hope will help and I plan to take lots of breaks.
What are you doing today?
Rhondi xo
You actually live near Savannah? Oh it makes my heart pound to even think about it. :)
ReplyDeleteOh, how lucky are you? What wonderfully beautiful images to browse on our stormy morning. Thank you! ~Kelly

Wow..living close to all this...blessed!!
ReplyDeleteSuch a great visit. I've never been to your neck of the woods, but perhaps someday. Thanks for sharing. I like the yellow table too. Plus, that little shop has so many things to look at. Have fun with the quilt. I'm off to bake a sponge cake for my dad. Mumzie
ReplyDeleteGreat pix. The colors are so vibrant and happy!!
ReplyDeleteawesome photos!
ReplyDeleteI love it all! Those little painted shops are so beautiful! I love the window boxes too. I'm gonna have to make some of those and hang some of my old china on them. I'm running out of ideas to use all of my dishes! Thanks for the idea!
ReplyDeleteCool places!! May I feature them on my blog Traveling the Blogoshpere?
ReplyDeleteLooks like a fun, colorful trip. Glad you enjoyed your get-away! Sally
ReplyDeleteWhat a great tour! Amazing colors. Gorgeous. and if the girl in the painting had a blog -- -hahahahaha... too funny!

I love Savannah.....I have eaten at that restaurant!! I am looking forward to going to Beaufort sometime, expecially with all of these fun places you are showing me!
ReplyDeleteLove the new pic of you on your sidebar...
Hugs,

What a fun place to shop, Rhondi! And I agree... those colors are fabulous! I want that window box, too! LOL!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see the quilt!
XO,
Sheila :-)
I'm at work sneaking in a peek. And, it was so worth it with all of these interesting places you shared.
ReplyDeleteAre you going to show us the quilt when you finish? Pretty please.
Rhondi, these were beautiful shots. It all looks like so much fun. I haven't been to Savannah in a long time but I use to consign my items in a shop called The Emporium, in downtown near the main square. Everyting was handmade and I always found such neat things to bring home.
ReplyDeleteI really love the little painted shops.
May I pul!-eez!come over & you be my 'tour guide' to all these darling places? Lovely day you had for sure. TTFN ~Marydon
ReplyDeleteI love those bright colors. I bet that was a fun place to eat if you could stop looking around. LOL. It all looks so neat.

I love Savannah....I was there 2 years ago and ready to go back! Your pictures are so pretty and colorful...very uplifting!
ReplyDelete~Patti
I usually dislike shopping but if these were the shops, I'd hang out there. I love the painting!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful get-away! I love Beaufort!
ReplyDeleteKatherine
Very, very cute. Love that planter with the place setting. Mimi
ReplyDeleteI love that window box! The pictures of the town are just beautiful and seems like you had a great time. i would love a walk down that street!! Enjoy your day!
ReplyDeleteI think one of the things that draws me to your beautiful blog is our shared love of color. I would love to stop in that pretty cafe and the pictures you took are just wonderful! Everything is so bright and cheery. Good luck with the quilt, I hope we will see it when it's finished:>)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the pictures I have never been there but would love to go!
ReplyDeleteTake Care,
Cherrie
Hi Rhondi,nice to meet you. Yes, that quote is from "Streams in the Dessert" I have had that book for years and recently picked it up again. It's new all over - love how God does that.
ReplyDeleteLovely places you stopped at - love all the yummy colors!!!
Blessings,
Mary
lol - I meant streams in the desert - not dessert. Though streams of chocolate in the dessert are good!!!
ReplyDeleteHi Rhondi! You've got your work cut out for you. Muscling a king-size quilt through a machine must be a bit like arm-wrestling an elephant. I like to save the big projects for winter so I can do them by hand and hide under them while I work! The quilt photos are beautiful. Are they your work? Good luck with your project. I cant wait to see it!
ReplyDeletewhat a wonderful place to visit. your photos are wonderful!!!
ReplyDeleteJust beautiful pictures. I've never been to Savannah but would love to spend some time there.
ReplyDeleteHappy sewing on that large quilt. I'd really have to think about that a long time before getting started!!
So much charm and such shopping fun! Thank you for a lovely tour. laurie
ReplyDeleteThis place is just oozing with whimsy! Look at the mismatched chairs - I love it! And the other stores and displays are just screaming fun! The colors are bright and cheerful, and the decors too. I love the bench with flowers and the kitchen shop! What a beautiful day to spend with just walking through.
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing Rhondi!
What a great place Rhondi. I love the planter and the wind chimes are amazing. I'd love to try making some chimes like that...I will try to get a 'chime' rather than a 'bong' or 'clank' which might happen with heavy pots and pans. Happy quilting, Eli
ReplyDeleteOh thank you for that beautiful respite and "vicarious vacation" through your lovely images! How wonderful that you received an extra night's stay!
ReplyDeleteBest wishes on the quilt project...we are catching up on cleaning after a week of husband being home on vacation...not near as delightful as quilt-making but a good day all the same I hope!
