Letter from the SHOWHOUSE CO-CHAIRS STACIE PLATT & ELLEN TURNER

Dear friends of design, history and our beloved Cashiers, As the co-chairs of the 2023 Cashiers Designer Showhouse, it is with immense joy that we welcome you to the most important annual fundraiser for the Cashiers Historical Society. It has been a privilege and a delight to co-chair such a special tradition for Cashiers that has continuously highlighted the best in interior design and supports our beautiful community.

This year, 15 of the most celebrated designers across the Southeast will combine their incredible talents. Jim Robinson, owner of Design South Builders, designed and built this home in the new Chimney Top neighborhood at High Hampton. Thank you, designers, for pouring your talent and love into this year’s Showhouse. We could not do this event without you.

In addition to thanking our generous designers, we want to thank all of the wonderful volunteers, corporate sponsors, and benefactors that have made this year extra special. You make the magic happen and we can’t wait for our guests to see the success of your hard work.

Thank you again for joining us for the 26th year of this amazing event in our beautiful mountain community. Through thoughtful educational platforms and the preservation of the Zachary-Tolbert House, Col. John’s Cabin, the Dependency, and the Hampton School, the Cashiers Historical Society maintains our area’s historical legacy. By touring the Showhouse and joining us for a myriad of special events, you are providing vital funds for the Cashiers Historical Society.

With deep gratitude, Stacie Platt and Ellen Turner
