Southern Home, A New Magazine and A Giveaway

I only had one day to go through the Fall Market at High Point,

and  was just able to visit several showrooms,

however, I did get a chance to stop by the showroom of Gabby.

The Gabby showroom was having a launch party of a new magazine

by Hoffman Media, the publishers of such wonderful magazines as the Cottage Journal.

The new magazine is called Southern Home.

Southern Home Magazine - Housepitality Designs

I love it.  I love everything about every aspect Southern life and living.

Southern Home Magazine - Housepitality Designs

Beautiful pages filled with gorgeous homes.

I spoke with a representative of the publication in the Gabby showroom

and they were quite excited about this new magazine. So was I.

Speaking of the Gabby showroom, here is a couple of photos that I took

of their new line of furnishings and accessories.

I was able to obtain a couple more copies of this magazine and

decided to give them away to two lucky readers.

Actually my friend Linda gave me that suggestion and thought it was a great idea.

    Alright! Southern style is the very best. I’m excited by the new magazine. No matter how many amazing blogs there are, I still love a great magazine with a cup of coffee or iced tea. 🙂

    I was born in the south and raised just about everywhere else. My admiration and a bit of my heart continue to remain in the south. So, I am delighted that there is a new publication with both a decorating and a southern theme. Contest is a great way to introduce the magazine.

    I remember when a one edition magazine by Hoffman came out entitled, Gracious Homes. I satires every page. I still have it. Needless to say, I am thrilled to hear about this one! It is very sweet of you to share it with us. Your gorgeous home should be in it. Thank you for this opportunity! Have a wonderful weekend.
