If you remember from last week, I had all my blogging friends over for the weekend.
As the last guest left, I get a call from my Plantation stable manager that the sheep are ready for shearing.

And since I like to be present for this production,
I'll pack up my suitcases......

and headed out to my beautiful Plantation located in the heart of the South.

Now because I know a lot of you folks are from the South, you are more than welcome to visit me.

If you don't want to use the front door, by all means use the back.

I think I will have a cup of tea before I take an afternoon nap.

I can watch the horses frolic all day.
And it has the lovely bath in the house.

Must remember to change into my wellingtons before I head out to the barns.
Looking forward to the warmth of the fireplace with a wee bit of cocoa.

Love that red and white room in the first picture. Great rooms. Your source links are not linked because they are part of the pictures. I was trying to click on one of them. Thanks for joining the party.
Wow! What a lot of eye candy! I want those red dotty suitcases! ♥
Thank you for letting us share in this great adventure with you.
I love red and white - especially checks. You have some beautiful photos here. They have such a cozy feel.

I would feel just grand walking up (or down) that grand staircase!
WHERE RED ABIDES
A day filled with scarlet, they say,
Can make the sad heart skip and play;
For where red abides,
A little bird hides
And sings every worry away.

I recognized one of those photos from my Kitty Bartholomew book on decorating. Do you know what ever happened to her? I loved seeing her on HGTV. She doesn't even have a blog. Go figure.
Ummmm I want to visit you! *winks* Loved the tour! Vanna
LOVE these inspiration photos!! Martina
Hi Diane...
Such beautiful and inspirational rooms, my friend! I just adore that pretty pink and lavender bedroom with all the roses...ahhhh! Breathtakingly beautiful! Thank you for sharing with us!
Warmest autumn wishes,
Chari
Hi Diane, my name is Diane too! I loved the first picture so much I pinned it!
LOVE these inspirations. Sharing this on FB- thanks for linking up at Feathered Nest Friday!
I don't really have red in my house ... but that doesn't mean I don't love it. Thanks for satisfying my craving ...

I love that first room, in red and white. It is nice to see a return to color and pattern in decorating. It looks so cozy and warm.(-:
Now that was fun! I'm heading to your place for some blogging talk and the hot chocolate by your gorgeous fireplace :)
I love, love, LOOOOOOVE those photos of the bedroom and the pink tub, sugar!! I'm just a sucker for anything pink or red. I've just found you but plan on following you on my Google Reader for sure.
xoxo,
Connie
Wonderful pictures. Yes, I could live there - in any of those rooms. I adore the pic with the buckets full of roses (sigh). Happy Pink Saturday from the UK!
Happy Pink Saturday. Loved it all......fabulous inspiration!
Fabulous country reds, or city ones too, I think I like them everywhere! Thanks for sharing. Hugs,
FABBY
Oh my, I'm swooning here, Diane! Love that red!! Fabulous pictures and it's been fun visiting your "southern home." Maybe I'll pack up a couple of those polka dotted suitcases and come visit you. We can have tea together. Thanks for sharing and Happy Pink Saturday.
Blessings,
Sandi
Simply beautiful!
My Pink, have a nice weekend!
Hi Diane Sweetie...
Happy Pink Saturday. Oh my gosh do I ever love this share. You know how I love red, and boy does this one ever hit a home run. I love it.
Adore the red and white polka dotted suitcases, do they scream "HAPPY" or what? LOVE them.
What a grand staircase, I would definitely come in the front. So pretty. What a gorgeous share.
Thank you for letting me dream a little with you this evening. I so enjoyed my visit. Many hugs and much love, Sherry
Very cute post. I like your style and wanna come visit. :)
I found myself saying "is this real? Can this really be someones adorable home?" ..and now that I am at the bottom of the page..
I am going back and do it all over again..and who knows...maybe again! After all, I am RETIRED! :)
LOVE this blog!!
Some lovely images in this post. I wanted to pin them from the original source, but the words "source" don't lead anywhere?
Thanks,
Dixie
I love the coffee table with the little skirt added, such a cute an unique idea! Thanks so much for sharing!
Barbe
Gosh I don't think you would have enough time in the day to do all those wonderful things.
What a beautiful set of images. The only one I couldn't even sit in would be the first one. The pattern makes my head spin.
All the others make me drool.
