Lowe’s Home Improvement Outlet planned for shopping center in Greensboro

The makeover of the Brassfield Shopping Center — more than three years in — will soon feature the reopening of the campus’ 10-screen theater and a new-to-North Carolina outlet concept from Lowe’s Home Improvement.

Also on their way is the third Triad location of The Habit Burger chain out of California, along with a Trek cycling store and an Indigo Art Studio.

Golden Ticket Cinemas Inc., founded in 2016 and based in Durham, plans to reopen the center’s 27,000-square-foot theater by early summer.

Meanwhile, Lowe’s is occupying the former 36,000-square-foot SteinMart retail space at the shopping center on Battleground Avenue.

Our Home Before-exterior – French Country Cottage

I remember when I first drove up this old driveway and saw the house that would become our home… do you know what my first thought was?

Our Home Before-exterior – French Country Cottage

Back the truck up.

It was not for faint of heart. Honestly, I almost didn’t even get out of the car. But then I shook my head, turned the car off and opened the door. I have shared this story before and some of you may remember just how our home looked when we first bought it- and just how much work was in front of us to even make it livable.

Fruit & Flowers Spring Table Centerpiece

Oh how I love a table with beautiful fresh fruit and flowers as a centerpiece. And shopping the kitchen for pretty fruit or vegetables is perfect for creating a unique centerpiece in a snap.

Fruits and Flowers Table

I had so much fun putting this table setting together for my Balsam Hill family. With fresh flowers that are full of spring colors not always available depending on where you live – we are showing just how you can use faux flowers for a beautiful spring inspiration. (Side note: You might remember that I have a collection of faux florals with

How a data nerd approaches DIY home improvement projects

I started 2021 by buying an 1885 hulk of a home, sight unseen, with visions of restoring its earlier grandeur. In almost two years, I’ve restored three of many rooms and tackled multiple smaller projects, by myself.

Do-it-yourself home improvements can save a lot of money, but that’s hardly the only reason to dive in. One in 4 homeowners took on DIY home improvement projects over the past two years because they like doing that kind of work themselves, according to the recent NerdWallet Home Improvement Report. (That nationally representative survey asked 1,404 homeowners about their home improvement activities and

Homeowners, Tell Us About The Home Improvement You Did, Big Or Small, That You Ultimately Ended Up Regretting

I bought my first home just about two years ago. All in all, it’s been one hell of a rewarding experience! I’ve completed a number of major and minor upgrades around the house that have been well worth every penny…and, ya know, the occasional blood, sweat, and tears. Emphasis on the tears.

Homeowners, Tell Us About The Home Improvement You Did, Big Or Small, That You Ultimately Ended Up Regretting

But I’d be remiss not to mention that I haven’t always been thrilled by the results of every single project I’ve attempted in my two-year stint as a homeowner.

The regrets have often been pretty tiny. Like installing this mid-century modern-ish chandelier in my kitchen! The

growing dahlias – my do’s and dont’s and learning as you go

I’ve been growing dahlias here for six or seven years now. It started with a tuber I found in a bargain corner at the garden center, and which turned out to be the most beautiful café au lait! I was immediately hooked, and have been growing them ever since, in increasing quantities each year.

Like everything else in the garden, there is an element of trial and error in growing dahlias. It took me a while for example to understand that I can leave some dahlias in the ground in certain parts of the garden, whereas elsewhere I have to

november covers

I’m thrilled to inform you all that the November version of our My French Nation Residence Journal has launched! It’s already obtainable in digital and print and that is one you do not need to miss! It feels surreal to say that this journal is our twenty fourth version! We first began the journal in January 2019, and have printed each two months since then.

Once I determined to launch the journal I knew completely nothing about publishing, printing, distribution, paper weights or any of the stuff that it’s essential to take into consideration earlier than you hit that Publish

As you consider what you need 2023 to seem like, you may begin to envision modifications you can also make round your private home. However you do not have to all the time take main steps like flattening partitions or ripping out cupboards to make house enhancements.

You can also make comparatively small, sensible modifications that may make your private home extra snug and safe and might probably prevent cash in the long
