The General Stephen Bull House is located next, at 1305 Bay Street. This 1910 house sits high on the bluff overlooking the Beaufort River. The cast iron fence that surrounds the house is said to have been cast from Swedish ore.
When drywall was removed in the kitchen, the original horsehair plaster and lath, fireplaces, cupboards, an old boot, and even a secret passageway were discovered. Right across the street are marsh and pluff mud, so Edith had her drawing-room couch covered in colorful Naugahyde since her three children liked to come in from hard play in the yard or rivers and crash on the couch.

Nail Salons - A rip off?

I needed a BASIC manicure. My cuticles were beginning to look at bit ragged and I am very busy right now, so I thought I would just get a manicure.
Remember those? So I picked the nail salon closest to my office and wandered over. Oh my goodness. What an experience!!First woman handed me a basket of sample nails to look through. It was full of these types of nails pasted on little sticks.
I declined and then none of the women wanted to do my nails once I declined. I explained I had a work event and needed a simple manicure and neutral polish.
It was obviously unless, I wanted something remotely like this. . no one wanted to wait on me.Finally, a woman came from the back and started my manicure. She looked somewhat put out, (a little huffing and puffing) but did a good job.
When it came time for the polish, I had picked an OPI polish in a nice neural shade.She tried to up-sale me on a gel polish. She said it was shinier, faster drying, and doesn't chip. When I asked how much, she said $30! yes, you heard me -- $30 in addition to the basic manicure fee!
No, thank you.Afterward, I did a little research on gel polish and found this interesting article, "Does gel or regular nails polish last longer?
Check it out, she has some interesting things to say about it all.As I sat in the salon, I noticed that several women had a huge Starbucks or some other kind of expensive energy drink.
They were getting manicures and pedicures. The woman next to me was getting a fancy nail job. And when it came time for her to pay, it was OVER $80!! That just got all over my frugal self. What a waste of money. And for what? $80 will: fill my car 2 1/2 times with gas; pay for an oil change and have some left over; buy quite a bit of groceries; or dog food & treats; or make an extra credit card payment. My imagination wandered all over. I bet these women have HUGE credit card debt. Some may even be behind in their mortgage. But their priority is obviously their nails.The Frugal Beauty blog has a great post about "doing it yourself" with suggested supplies that work for her. It is a good read.
My conclusion is that I will not be going back to that salon. Nor will I frequent nail salons often in the future. They really just don't fit in to my frugal plan.

Seaside Hotel or Badehotellet
Amazon Prime had an offer for Season 1 of Seaside Hotel so I thought, why not? It is a delightful series and one I am really happy I found. In the series, the woman go to Skagen for a girl's afternoon out. Never heard of it. But in usual Pat fashion -- I knew nothing about that part of Denmark. I marveled while looking a the pictures of sea oats and sand dunes that look just like the Georgia Coast. Naw, this is Denmark -- where did they film it? Denmark is cold. It couldn't possibly have sand dunes and sea oats --- I investigated. With my old friend Google Maps, I first had to locate Jutland. Silly me, I checked the south side of Denmark first. Finally I just asked and there it was -- way up on the tip top part. In reality, the show was filmed in Jammerbugten. The hotel is a set. But Skagen is real. Anyway, here are a few things I discovered. There really are some adorable beach cottages. House in Skagen, Denmark © Gunvor Eline Eng Jakobsen / Alamy Stock
1848 House. Haunted?
Originally a home, then a hospital, then a warehouse, then a restaurant, and now. back to being a private residence after being sold to a physician in 2006 and remodeled by Todd Architects -- this 8 bed, 8 bath beauty is still with us. From the book, Marietta, 1833-2003 by James Bolan Glover, descendant of the original owners and Rebecca Nash Paden: “Charleston planter John Heyward Glovers, Jr. built Bushy Park, a Greek Revival plantation house, on his 3000 acre property in 1848. The house had 17 rooms and many outbuildings, including a stone kitchen, which still exists. Heart Pine floors and hand-hewn beams are featured in the house. William King* and his servants occupied the mansion during the Civil War battles in 1864. The house was also used as a federal hospital.” (*son of Roswell King and Catherine Barrington) Is it haunted? A lot of the paranormal activity is contributed to the fact it was used as a hospital during the Civil War. When it was a restau
Victorian Fashion Photos
Like everyone else, I am having Downton Abbey withdrawals. Why do I love Downton Abbey so much? Well, besides, the house, I love the fashions. The Victorian and Edwardian era fashions will never be repeated as far as I can see. Besides, who would want to wear so many restricting clothes? Not me. Despite the prim and proper feminine ideal of the day, fashions of the Victorian period created a mystical, romantic look. I love the one below. Her hair, her face and her clothes are perfect. A bridal party or perhaps a cotillion? Definitely 1880's or before. Bustles were in. Love the enormous hats and large corsages and of course, the parasol. A young woman before age 18. At 18, they could "drop their hemlines." Edwardian fashion refers to the clothing worn in the early 20th century and features an simpler, elegant, more tailored look for women.

Reviews for "Hauntingly Beautiful: The Allure of Beaufort, SC's Witchcraft Nails"
1. Samantha - ★☆☆☆☆
I had the worst experience at Witchcraft Nails in Beaufort, SC. First of all, the staff was extremely rude and unprofessional. They didn't even greet me when I walked in, and when I asked for a specific design, they acted like I was inconveniencing them. Secondly, the quality of the nail work was subpar at best. My nails started chipping within a couple of days, and the polish was streaky. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this salon to anyone. Save your money and go somewhere else where they actually care about their customers.
2. John - ★☆☆☆☆
I had a terrible time getting my nails done at Witchcraft Nails in Beaufort, SC. The salon was dirty and poorly maintained, which already made me question the hygiene standards. The nail technician assigned to me seemed inexperienced and didn't know what she was doing. She accidentally cut my cuticles and made my fingers bleed, which was extremely painful. The overall service was unprofessional, and I left feeling unsatisfied and frustrated.
3. Michelle - ★★☆☆☆
I was disappointed with the service at Witchcraft Nails in Beaufort, SC. The salon itself had a nice ambiance, but the staff members were disinterested and lacked enthusiasm. The technician who did my nails did an average job, nothing exceptional. It felt like they were rushing through the appointment, and the results reflected that. The polish started chipping within a week, which was quite disappointing. Unfortunately, I won't be going back to this salon.
