Old Home Lovers Take Note: The Decatur Old House Fair Returns
The popular annual event will be held Feb. 2 at the Courtyard Marriott in Downtown Decatur.
The Virginia-Highland and Druid Hills neighborhoods are filled with beautiful, historic homes. And if there's one thing that owners of old homes know, it's the need for tender loving care to keep them in good condition.
The popular Decatur Old House Fair is a prime opportunity to attend seminars, check out exhibits and take part in hands-on workshops to learn how to take care of older homes.
