About Me

Hello out there - I am Jenny and welcome to the Lavender Magnolia!

I have been married for twenty years to one of the best human beings I know.  We have a teenage daughter who challenges us every day and makes us proud every single second! 

I live in North Carolina and love it here.  I may not have been born in the south, but in my soul, I feel like a southern girl.  There is a reason that James Taylor wrote the song about this beautiful place.

I love to cook and always have some craft going on. 
I knit, crochet, paint, make jewelry, sew, scrapbook (in phases, never all at once!) and most recently have begun to refurbish furniture with my husband.

I am not an expert at any of the crafts that I do, but I get by well enough to make some nice gifts for friends and family or to sell at craft shows or our local flea market. 

I have decided to start this blog so that I can show my trials and errors with furniture rehab, crafting home decor items and design. 

 I love to shop thrift stores, Craigslist, yard sales and even my home for things that I can transform and turn into something beautiful on a tiny, tiny budget.
