I’m still thinking about the Home & Garden Show and how great it was to learn about some of the good things Louisville area businesses are doing. I love our unique, local options!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Looking for those hard-to-find items? How about a 20-foot concrete giraffe? The Home and Garden Show has one! | Photo Tre Pryor<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Did you know that for every $100 you spend at a local business, $45 stays here in our community? So you’re not only supporting what makes Louisville one of a kind but also keeping jobs and conserving energy and resources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For example, Tre and I had a fun chat with Andrew from Shine Contracting about a job they did using old blue jeans as insulation! Shine also works with Bluegrass Green Co., 804 E.Market, a store specializing in environmentally friendly building supplies, including denim insulation, and also zero VOC paint, efficient lighting, and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I was also happy to see Architectural Salvage<\/a> at the H&G Show. This store is really one of Louisville’s best-kept secrets. If you love antique doors, mantels, and ironwork, check it out! They’re at 618 E. Broadway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And finally, it doesn’t get any more unique and local than The Concrete Lady. If you’ve driven north on I65 you know what I mean. A friend of mine takes all her out-of-town guests here! In addition to statuary and concrete garden ornaments, they also make benches and fountains. And I love the giraffe!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
