It’s the most wonderful time of the year! At least for decorophiles like me, anyway.
The Birmingham Parade of Homes starts this weekend, which means I can snoop around perfectly appointed houses and get tons of decorating ideas without having to bring a bottle of wine or be very sociable. All Parade homes are open to the public and totally FREE to tour.
House-hopping around the Parade is the best thing ever. It’s also starting over Mother’s Day weekend, which makes it a perfect time to plan a fun girls day out Parade hopping with your mother/sisters/aunts/grannies.
If you’re out and about, I will be live-blogging from the Mt. Laurel community at 110 Burnham St Birmingham, AL 35242 on Saturday, May 9th from 10-12:30. I’d love to have you stop by and say hello if you’re in the area!
The Parade runs for the next two weeks, so make plans to visit the homes during the Parade of Homes either May 9-10 or May 16-17!
There will no doubt be TONS of eye-candy for you to drool over if you’re planning any upcoming house projects. It’s so worth taking some tours to see the new trends. Brick in a master bathroom? Yes please…

Funny…..we have a Parade of Homes here those same dates and I look forward to it this weekend every year. It is a time when my daughter and daughters -in – law and I go out and snoop after a fantastic brunch. We have so much fun and come home with such great ideas and sometimes just plain happy to live where we live, too.
Thank you so much for the home tour info. . My kids live in Homewood and would love to go. Wish I was there. Have a great time and send more pictu res.
