Land of the Free. Home of the Brave. I don’t need to convince you of how awesome America is, right? Despite our faults (insert 2016 Presidential Election here) there really is no where else in the world I’d rather be. With all this star spangled fabulousness coming at us, it’s sometimes difficult to weed through and find those truly AMERICAN brands to show off our pride even more. So, I’ve found them for you! Here’s a few of my favorite MADE IN THE USA items, brands & companies. You’re welcome America.
L.L. BEAN BOOTS | There’s nothing that says “Fall in the South” quite like a pair of these!
Pictured below is my pair from 1986 and my daughter Liza’s new pair from 2016. All these years & nothing has changed! The timeless love we have for L.L. Bean is a testament to their quality. It’s amazing how a single pair of boots can span generations! We had so much fun visiting their store in Maine back in 1998. It may just have to come up on our family trip wish list again. So iconic, they even have their very own section on the L.L. Bean website. L.L. Bean is one of the last multi-channel U.S. merchants to still own & operate a U.S. manufacturing facility. I don’t know about you, but that gets my American pride flowing! (Pictured in pink: Lulie’s Sperry Topsiders pair from 2016 – Not part of L.L. Bean’s Made in USA stamp, but the pink is hard to resist!)
CHRISTIE COOKIES | Voted Best Cookie in the South by Southern Living Magazine
Christie has always been a staple of mine, especially around the holiday season. Why? — There are no ingredients you can’t pronounce, they deliver, and even go one step further to customize your containers for the perfect client gifts. Founded 30 years ago in the heart of Nashville, TN, Christie Cookies are as American (and country) as you can get.
JIFFY STEAMERS | Lasts Forever. Portable. Comes in PINK! Need I say more?
Really, though. Do I need to say more? 
These steamers are the best of the best. I especially love their portable steamer (in pink). It’s the perfect travel companion, or even the perfect companion if you’re staying right at home. It’s compact, yet powerful. The easiest way to quickly get those annoying wrinkles out & be on your way. I’m not about wasting time, so this isan absolute must if you don’t have time to mess with wrinkles!
WICKED JACK’S TAVERN | If you like rum & cake, this place is for you!
I found Wicked Jack’s Tavern during my travels in Nashville & it has been the find of a lifetime! Their rum cakes are soaked in the finest Jamaican rum & 
then vacuumed
packed to keep that amazing flavor.
The perfect gift for any occasion. I especially love Wicked Jack’s during the
holiday season. I’m always looking for something different. I don’t want my clients to receive a blah fruit cake. This is sure to spice up their gift pile & keep them coming back for more…of your work!
BEECHWOOD METALWORKS | More fun & colorful than the real thing!
I’m a big fan of family-run business & Beechwood Metalworks tops my list! Established in 2002 by the husband & wife team of Casey & Emily Lewis, this dynamic duo does it all. I’ve worked with them on multiple projects, from multifamily to commercial. They are able to take what’s inside my head & make it better than even my imagination! They created these palm trees for the beach at Lakeside Village Apartments. The Georgia climate isn’t the friendliest on real palm trees, so we came up with these as the perfect solution. Check out their gallery & you’ll find additional projects we’ve worked together on!
BIG WHEELS | Forget that regular ole’ kids playground – Switch it up & go retro!
At Lakeside Village Apartments in Columbus, GA we decided to create a play space that stood out from those boring monkey bars. We created a Retro Ride Park featuring the original Big Wheels tricycles. Since 1968, Big Wheel has been creating these iconic tricycles. It’s the perfect way to bring nostalgia and fun to your apartment communities, or really any project with a kids park!
DANIELS WOOD LAND | Treehouse? Or, TreeKINGDOM?
I came across Daniels Wood Land during our search for a playground during construction of our Lakeside Village Apartments project. I knew I wanted to create a special place for the kids in the community to play, but it had to be something extra. We aren’t about settling! You might have seen them featured on Animal Planet’s Redwood Kings. This dynamic duo brings wood to life in ways I didn’t know was possible. Big or small, Daniels Wood Land does it all!
TRINA TURK | Don’t just blend in – Make a statement!
If you’ve ever met me, or just scrolled through the blog, you know how much I love color! Trina Turk takes color to a new level. I love her swimsuits & swim coverups. They’re the perfect addition to a tropical vacation & the quality is impeccable. Finding such a high quality brand, made in the USA isn’t easy! But, Trina Turk does it right.
LEE INDUSTRIES | American-made furniture since 1969
I’m always on the lookout for furniture companies that can accommodate my love of bright colors. Lee Industries is my perfect partner in crime! Below is a look at our waiting area for the Woodruff Storage project. Yes, you read that right. This is in a STORAGE building. I told you we don’t do anything inside of the box, even if it is just a storage unit business. This luscious 
yellow couch was exactly what the space needed. Our color palette was orange & turquoise with extra touches of yellow & pink. Because who doesn’t need extra touches of yellow & pink?
Love,
We love taking drab and making it FABULOUS! Do you ever watch Fixer Upper? This is our spin off!
Take a look at just a few of our properties that we have turned from boring to exciting!
Who wouldn’t want to live here? Waking up every morning getting to go to the clubhouse for fresh Starbucks coffee and smiling office staff is the best start to the day!
Summertime is super COOL with our resort style pools, but don’t worry winter is just as HOT HOT HOT with our cozy fire places.
Call us today to redesign your property! We guarantee you’ll love the new do!
Love,
Lucy

Love,
It gives me great pleasure to introduce you to Alana Mintz!!
I have had the privilege of working with Alana for several years. Since joining the Woodruff Property Management team in 2011 as the Property Manager of Creekside of Auburn, Alana has been a model, indeed an inspiration, in her service to the multifamily industry and our company.
What is most impressive about Alana’s record of accomplishment is that she has only been in the multifamily industry since 2006. In 10 short years, Alana has risen through the ranks in property management. Starting as a leasing manager, Alana has earned her way up to her current position as Area Director, Vice President & Alabama Real Estate Broker for the Woodruff Property Management Company. While title is of course not what makes a person successful, the way in which you earn new positions within a company is.
Alana is one of the most dedicated professionals I know. She handles every situation with grace, poise and maturity that extends far beyond her years. Alana is a true leader. She is organized, strong, determined and understanding. As an area director, Alana oversees over a thousand units, multiple property managers and staff members. She is also a broker, working to sell homes on one of our properties, while maintaining high occupancy levels across her entire portfolio.
If I had to narrow all of this down to one word to describe Alana Mintz, it would be “invaluable”.
Alana is more than an employee to our company and me, she is an irreplaceable asset. Property managers and staff look to her in times of stress or uncertainty. She provides a calm and cool demeanor in any situation, and attacks every challenge with a passion I wish I could clone and have in every single one of our employees.
As a Vice President of the Woodruff Property Management Company, Alana is always discovering innovative ways to increase occupancy levels, reduce delinquency and create a positive and fun work environment for all. I’m not sure when she sleeps, because she is just as dedicated in her home life as she is in her professional one. Alana is always reading, always researching and always eager to do all she can to ensure our company’s success.
Alana’s record of achievement and service to our company and this industry is overwhelming. I give my highest endorsement to Alana.
Love,
