Save the date for a Meet and Greet at SummerHouse on May 3!
Mitchell Gold (yes, the one of Mitchell Gold + Bob Williams!) will be at SummerHouse for the evening as we celebrate the new Spring 2012 line of beautiful goods from this world-renown furniture company!
A wine tasting provided by Calistoga Wine and Spirits, plus some fantastic tunes mixed by DJ Young Venom, will set the tone for the evening as everyone gets the chance to oooh and aaah over the new MG+BW pieces while visiting with Mitchell.

Time to Jet Set!
Lisa + team are off to High Point Market this weekend! They left EARLY this morning to catch their flight to one of the most fun weekends of the year! When asked about one thing she was really looking forward to on the trip, Lisa said,
“I am going to the MG+BW party on Saturday night. It’s a really cool
intimate small party of about 35 independent dealers. It’s at Mitchell
and Bob’s renovated ranch and Chef Sean always rocks the dinner.
I can’t wait. It’s one of the highlights of my trip!”
Check out the High Point Market by clicking on the image below to find out what all they have to get excited about!
Look for a full report {pictures included} when Lisa returns!
It’s Our Birthday!
Every April, we celebrate SummerHouse’s birthday!
It was six years ago this month that we opened our doors on Highland Colony Parkway in Ridgeland and we have not looked back! Each year we learn more, have even more fun, and create even more beautiful spaces, so celebrating SIX years of that is really exciting!!
So what does it all mean to you?
SAVINGS!! Look around our showroom floor and you’ll find birthday tags noting extra special birthday discounts of up to 50% off! That’s our way of saying thanks for the six years of fun that YOU have helped create!
We’ve also got another exciting event going on this month, which we’ll blog about later.
Soak up the birthday savings for now, then we’ll come back and tell you what else you should get excited about in the month of April!
{ happy birthday to us! }
TONIGHT!
Looking for something fun to do tonight? Join us at The Auditorium for a live show featuring Shelley Fairchild, Jason Turner, and our very own BRIAN FUENTE!! (In case you’re a little behind, Brian is Lisa’s son! He made it past the blind auditions on NBC’s The Voice and moved onto the battle rounds where he went up against Jordis Unga.)
Brian was kind enough to work in an interview with us, despite his crazy schedule! We has some questions for him about the show…
SummerHouse: We were so excited to see you make it on to the Battle Rounds on The Voice!!! When Blake first told you that you were paired with Jordis, what thoughts came to your head?
Brian: Thank you! When I found out I was going to battle Jordis, I wasn’t as shocked of course as they make it appear on TV but more shocked of the song selection. The battle rounds in my opinion are the worst part of the show, it was so weird to “battle”.
SummerHouse: We saw a tweet from The Voice saying you and Jordis became BFF on the show. Do ya’ll still keep in touch?
Brian: Jordis and I do still keep in touch. Not as often as we should because we are both so busy, but we do text back and forth every now and then. She’s a sweetheart.
SummerHouse: What was the most fun part of being involved in the show?
Brian: The best part of the show was performing at the Blind Auditions. There is nothing more suspenseful, there’s just absolutely nothing quite like it. So many nerves not knowing if anyone is going to turn around. When Blake turned around, I swear, it didn’t even really hit me until after my performance. Knowing that I was continuing on was such a relief.
SummerHouse: What would you say is the most valuable thing you walked away with?
Brian: I walked away with amazing friendships, thousands of new fans internationally and a new me. I am now doing what I love and that is doing music full time and I owe it to the show for changing my life forever.
SummerHouse: Do girls scream and want your autograph everywhere you go now?
Brian: Too funny, I do get stopped often when I am out and people ask “Wait, is your name Brian? Are you that guy from The Voice?”
SummerHouse: Where can we next expect to see the name “Brian Fuente” in lights?!
Brian: I am currently seeking out the right producer to produce and record my new record. My number one goal right now is to put my music in America’s face. I plan to record an EP within the next month or two. After that, my goal is to get on a tour as a supporting act for a major artist.
SummerHouse: Anything else you want to share with our readers?
Brian: We will be playing The Duling School in Jackson TONIGHT, April 7! My good friends Jason Turner and Shelly Fairchild will be joining us. Jason is a Jackson native and Shelly lives here in Nashville with me but originally from Clinton. Going to be one great night of music! Looking forward to playing at home…it’s been too long!
Also, I will be playing the Gulfport Music Festival on May 20 with Maroon 5, Gym Class Heroes and Cobra Starship. This is an opportunity that I wouldn’t have had if I wouldn’t have made it to the Voice.
Ok, that is really cool, Brian! We’re so excited for you and will contine to ask you questions so our followers can know what you’re up to!
[[ good luck tonight! ]]
VIEW
We found ourselves leaving View Gallery very inspired over the weekend. The art collection that this boutique gallery currently houses is absolutely breathtaking! We’ve always loved owner Phyllis Geary and adored her taste when it comes to art, so it’s no surprise that she has some great inventory… But the Sophia paintings she had outside on Saturday were absolute traffic-stoppers!
There is no denying that those are some gorgeous paintings right there!
As we walked inside, we were completely taken aback at just about everything Phyllis had in there. Take a quick look at just some of our favorites…




See why we love this place?!
Our designers are PROS at placing art, so let us help you pick just the right piece to go on that empty wall or in that little nook that you’ve wanted to spruce up! You know where to find us!
