Happy March!

Home. So much contained in that little four letter word. Home is our grounding. Our base. Our launchpad. It’s where we start and end each day. And while the particulars look different for each of us, the meaning and value it holds for all of us is undeniable. Author Wendy Wunder said, “The magic thing about home is that it feels good to leave, and it feels even better to come back.” As we thought about home - we wanted to highlight what makes it special to our readers. That of course includes the food and drinks, the aesthetic and design, but most importantly - the people. We feel like the lucky ones as we got to learn more about the businesses and individuals that comprise this city and hope the small lens into their lives and work brings people in this community together. As you flip through the pages of this issue, we hope you’ll feel encouraged and connected to the people around you - in your city, neighborhood and most all of - your home. Every month, we hear from readers who keep this magazine for longer than just the month labeled on the cover. They say they hold onto it for months as coffee table art or an accessory in their home. We feel proud to create a resource that is valued in our community and strive every month to deliver the value you expect. Thanks for letting us be a part of your home.

Madisyn Newman Bracelet Jam One year ago, Madisyn Newman started her first business making jewelry. At eleven years old, she wanted to find a way to earn money and enjoyed making bracelets. Since then she has learned new techniques, introduced new bracelet designs, and now also makes keychains. Madisyn tells us that her favorite thing to make is the clay bead bracelets. All of her jewelry can be customized and some pieces can be personalized with names or initials. When asked what she plans to do with the money earned from her sales, Madisyn says, “We’re moving soon so I’m saving up to get some stuff for my new room.”
Madisyn also enjoys playing soccer, is on the A-B Honor Roll, loves chorus and is a part of the State Honor Choir Program. To see Madisyn’s creations or to place a custom order, join her Bracelet Jam by Madisyn group on Facebook.
Linda Adams When Help Can't Wait Linda Adams is passionate about helping and serving others. For over ten years, Linda worked with When Help Can’t Wait, a nonprofit that provides clothing and other necessities to nursing home residents for free. “I would go over and organize the donations and put them where they needed to go,” says Linda. “We’d also take clothes to the nursing homes and put them out on a table and let the residents shop.” One of Linda’s favorite things about serving is seeing residents smile when they would find clothing they loved.
Linda helps out wherever she is needed. She has also volunteered her time with other nonprofits such as Broad Street Ministry, Child Enrichment, and Garden City Ministry. CONTINUED >

Mike Stephens Mike Stephens is a retired hospital administrator. After retiring, he started a recycling ministry. “When people call me and say, ‘I’ve got a washer and dryer - I bought a new one and don’t know what to do with the old ones that still work,’ I go and pick it up for free of charge and locate a place to put it,” he shares. Mike finds families who are in need of the home items and gives it to them. If he can’t find a family in need, he calls other local ministries to see if they need the item. Mike doesn’t allow people to pay but if they insist, he asks that they donate the money to the Missions Account at Grace Fellowship Church. “That way when I go to Honduras, if I don’t have the funds, I notify the church,” says Mike. In November of 2021, Mike traveled to Honduras to build a forty-person dorm conference center that provides missionaries a place to rest.
If you have furniture, appliances, or other home items you no longer need, contact Mike by calling 706-373-8488.

Turning Dreams Into Reality CARSHA HOLLEY BRINGS EXPERIENCE AND ENTHUSIASM TO THE WORLD OF REAL ESTATE A native of New Jersey, Carsha Holley came south to attend Benedict College. After graduation, she launched a career in Human Resources, which allowed her to live out her passion of helping people on a daily basis. Fast forward a few years to Carsha’s experience of buying her first home. “I was actually the type of person who didn't think I could buy a house,” she explains. “But my realtor told me I probably could be a homeowner. So, I took her advice and counsel and was able to purchase my very first home here in Evans.” The experience of buying her first home was rewarding and gives Carsha a unique perspective on helping others do the same. “After going through the process personally, I thought that real estate would be a good fit for me,” she shares. “That experience made me want to help others by educating and assisting them in accomplishing their goal of homeownership; not limiting them to just buying a house but selling a house as well as making real estate investments.”

In 2018, Carsha began her real estate career and in 2022, she formed The Holley Group under the umbrella of Realty One Group Visionaries. She works with a talented staff and licensed assistant who support her in walking buyers and sellers through the entire process. “My staff helps everyone get from contract to close successfully with superior customer service,” says Carsha. “I enjoy walking clients through the process with the least amount of stress. Even if any hiccups happen, I'm a natural problem solver, so I'm always thinking outside the box and making things happen.” Having served eight years in the U.S. Army Reserves also gives Carsha additional experience that helps her assist military clients. “I have a lot of military buyers because I understand the process as I am a veteran,” says Carsha. “I bought my home with a VA loan and understand the value that being a U.S. Veteran provides. It can open doors for other soldiers in their quest for homeownership and makes their dream into reality.” As a certified REALTOR®, Carsha sees homes that range from quaint cottages to luxury mansions. The Evans City Lifestyle team asked her to share a few favorite features she likes to see in luxury homes. “I love a spa-like bathroom,” says Carsha. “I’m looking for dual vanities, a freestanding soaking tub, and a tile or stone walk-in shower that is open and includes a rain shower head – with large walk-in closets that include a built-in closet system close by. I like a large, open kitchen with a gas stove, built-in ovens, wine fridge/storage, lots of stone or granite counter space, and light-colored cabinetry,” she says. “It’s also nice for the backyard to serve as an additional entertainment space, with a mounted TV, fireplace, and outdoor kitchen and dining area.” Carsha is licensed in both South Carolina and Georgia.

5 Hot Trends
ARTICLE BY HALEY WILLIAMS PHOTOGRAPHY BY J.A. STENGER PHOTOGRAPHY
in Kitchen Design A peek at what’s ahead: bold cabinet colors, statement hardware and swaths of stone.
When designing your dream kitchen, it’s important to balance timeless features with elements that reflect your personality and design aesthetic. You may not plan to remodel your kitchen each year (does anyone do that?), but that doesn’t mean there aren’t creative ways to keep your space feeling modern and fresh. We spoke with interior designer Brooke Cover about the trends in kitchen design she’s seeing this year, touching on everything from cabinet colors and lighting to tile and countertop combos she’s loving.
TA K I N G T H E C O U N T E R M AT E R I A L U P THE BACKSPLASH Although the iconic subway tile backsplash is timeless in its own right, Brooke says she is seeing a big shift toward marble slab backsplashes — which add drama and depth to the kitchen. Not only is it easier to clean than tile, but a marble backsplash and countertop also sets the tone for the entire space and makes a big statement.
HIDDEN STORAGE, VISIBLE APPLIANCES
Brooke’s Pro Tip:
Gone are the days of it being a given to hide the fridge behind custom cabinets. Many brands of appliances are so beautiful and sleek these days, homeowners want to see them rather than hide them behind a cabinet facade. Small appliances, however, are another story. Custom cabinets and “appliance garages” aren’t going away anytime soon. Form and function make them a desirable addition to any kitchen.
I suggest viewing countertop slabs in person vs. a small sample piece because each slab has unique movement and colors. They are all so beautiful and works of art. Taking a trip to the warehouse will really help a client to understand the different types available and see the difference in the look of the material.

SCAN QR CODE FOR BROOKE’S FAV O R I T E C O U N T E R T O P S T H I S Y E A R .
WA R M I N G U P THE WHITE We doubt the classic white kitchen will ever completely go out of style, but trends show people are going away from the white kitchen and gray cabinets. They’re opting for white mixed with warmer wood tones, dark greens and blues. Some homeowners are mixing vintage in with the new and modern through butcher block islands or other unique cabinetry choices. Black is making a bold comeback in some kitchens, while others usher in warmth through painted islands or other darker contrast tiles in the bar area. You don’t have to leave behind the timelessness when you warm up your space if you opt for equally timeless black and wood-stained accents. If you want a quick refresh, consider adding pops of wood through cutting boards or other decor accents on countertops or open shelves.
BOLD H A R D WA R E Mixed metals and sizes are having a moment in kitchens across America. Brooke says not to shy away from a variety of sizes of pulls and handles, depending on the drawer and door size. For instance, you may see a mixture of longer pulls on larger drawers and square knobs on smaller glassware cabinets - and that’s more than just ok - that’s recommended. As the heart of the home, kitchens shouldn’t feel sterile and hyper-coordinated - they should feel inviting and tailored to the space. Since no two kitchens will be exactly alike, feel free to boldly mix the hardware sizes and styles to the needs of your kitchen.
C O N T R A S T, C O N T R A S T, CONTRAST! From painted and stained islands to dark lower cabinetry with bright white uppers and mixed lighting fixtures, contrast is the name of the game this year. You’ll see this juxtaposition between clean white and darker colors or even this year’s favorite - greens and blues - all over newly designed kitchens. You’re not breaking any rules by coordinating sculptural pendants over the kitchen island with more vintage-inspired gooseneck sconces over the standalone bar or a chandelier over the eat-in kitchen.
