I never really thought I'd have the opportunity to visit the Fixer Upper empire in Waco Texas that is Magnolia Markets. But...it happened. In 40+ degree heat and 100% humidity with shoulder-to-shoulder crowds!

For a complete tour jump over to our Facebook Page and look for the TWO Facebook Live videos where I walk through the masses to give you a firsthand look.

It's inspiring to see how Chip and Joanna Gaines have created such opportunities in this inland Texas town — and the spilling over of growth and revitalization is visible as you drive the neighborhood.

Let's start outside.

The gardens are gorgeous with greenery and ample seating everywhere. There are porch swings and vegetable gardens, vertical green walls and a grassed play area for the little ones. Picnic seating was under cover with water misters to fight the heat. And there were food trucks and stands to grab a meal, a drink or a snack.

​And of course...those gorgeous rusty silos.

Lets go inside the gorgeous Magnolia Market — the building itself is lovely and all the goodies inside made it worth the wall-to-wall people.

I might've grabbed a few goodies here and there, here's a photo of my "Magnolia haul" which I was going to fit in my suitcase at all costs!

I also grabbed a little pressie for the lucky winners of the door prize and online giveaway at our upcoming Drop In Day we have scheduled at For The Love Creations on Wednesday, 5 September 2018 from 10am-1pm — Watch for the Facebook Live event during this time!

Visiting the Magnolia Market and Silos really was a once-in-a-lifetime experience that I am so happy to be able to share with y'all (see what I did there?) Hope you enjoyed it!
