a sweet little slice of texas

This trip was extra special for me on a personal level because I was able to take my team with me and stay at the Wander Inn! The Wander Inn is a short-term rental property owned by Amie and Jolie Sikes, or as you might know them, the Junk Gypsies.

There are two buildings that make up the Wander Inn. Within each, there are 4 separate bedrooms with their own private bath and back porch. In addition, there is a shared lounge space with an amazing fireplace, kitchenette, and record player with plenty of vinyls. 'The Crown House' features a breezeway in the center of the house and porches on the front and back. Our team stayed in 'The Country Delight' and 'The Rambler' rooms at 'The Crown House.'

As DIY queens, Amie and Jolie have repurposed many old finds to give them new life. For instance, they created a unique, yarn-wrapped chandelier and glitter

dipped feather lampshade. Plus, they hung a rustic door to create a sliding barn door into the bathroom. Lastly, they topped vintage wooden stools with faux fur for an unexpected element. If you’ve not seen their style, think glitter and lace, shiplap and chandeliers!

Amie and Jolie were so sweet to host us at their property, but they also treated us to a meet and greet with other guests. Among the list was none other than Lena Schlabach of "Farmhouse Frocks". God smiled down at me when I was able to sit under the wisdom of the Ohio-based store owner and her protégé, Joe. I left that night feeling revitalized and recharged, more determined than ever to continue developing this brand and make it successful.

There’s just something truly magical about sitting under the stars of that big Texas sky. Maybe it was Lena’s words, having my bestie Amy Williams by me, Robert’s sweet texts dinging on my phone… or maybe it was the wine! Either way, I left this fall show feeling really good. If you haven’t yet visited, I strongly encourage you to do so and to stop by the Junk Gypsy store and lay your head at the Wander Inn.
