Fixer to Fabulous on HGTV

October 21, 2019 By Talya Tate Boerner 11 Comments

Fixer to Fabulous

I’m excited for my friend, Jenny Marrs, and her family! Their brand-new television show Fixer to Fabulous airs on HGTV this week! Be sure to tune in (or set your DVR) this Tuesday night, October 22, at 9:00/8:00 Central Time. They are the sweetest family and their home renovations in Bentonville, Arkansas are, well, fabulous.

Fixer to Fabulous

Let’s face it, we need someone to fill the sad vacancy left wide open when Chip and Joanna Gaines decided Fixer Upper would end. Fixer to Fabulous on HGTV will expertly fit the bill. I just know it. And being able to support a show and family located in our backyard while highlighting the uniqueness of Northwest Arkansas will be a definite bonus.

A fun tidbit—back when The Accidental Salvation of Gracie Lee debuted, Jenny Marrs won the grand prize of my Virtual Book Launch party. Her prize? Jenny Marrs will be a character in my Gracie Lee sequel. (I’ve written a tiny bit of it and already know they will be the best of friends…)

I wonder if HGTV will have to sign off now? Hmmm.Continue Reading

Southern Giving: Fayetteville Find!

Fayetteville Find - Southern Giving

Northwest Arkansas friends, have you been to Southern Giving? This gift and home decor boutique opened a few months ago. Already, it’s become my go-to place for charming southern gifts. Owner Susie Baker is like a long lost friend. She’s friendly, creative, and has an eye for helping a confused gift giver find that perfect something.

Baker is known for monogramming. Her business started out of her home. When the business took over her home (as home businesses can do), she opened Southern Giving in downtown Fayetteville, Arkansas on the square (just behind Tiny Tim’s Pizza). It’s a tucked away place filled with lots of goodies perfect for Christmas. And yay (!) she focuses on local artisans.

Let’s take a tour!Continue Reading

Shop Locally in Wilson Arkansas

(This post is sponsored by Designsensory, Inc. Opinions are my own.)

I’m a big believer in shopping locally and spending my money in small towns. I’m also a believer in making the best use of my time. I have better things to do than fight traffic for a parking spot in a crowded mall lot. Don’t you?

Sit back, grab your favorite beverage, and let me show you how fun it can be to shop locally in Wilson, Arkansas. Even with only a population of 903, I think you’ll be surprised at the unique shopping opportunities available.Continue Reading
