The stockings were hung by the chimney with care ...

Let Your Home Be Your Heart
- What I hope for my readers and for all keepers of the nest, is that they embrace their homes with their heart and all of the passion that it holds. I want them to know that they can decorate on a limited budget by seeing things in new ways; by rescuing the broken and transforming the ugly. I hope that they flaunt their favorite color and decorate their life with it. I hope that their homes feel like one giant hug that welcomes them each and every time they walk through their front door. More than anything I want everyone to have their own home-sweet-home dream come true! xo, Kim

Whew!
I am happy to report that the cookies are baked, although I see someone took a little nibble out of one...
And all of the presents are bought and wrapped ...
And the Christmas tablecloths are freshly washed ...
And the coffee is on and nice and hot ...
And I even saved a few kisses just for you.
Because I love you.
But you knew that.
xo,
Kim

Remember ...
As we remember - hopefully - to LIGHT our candles ...
And as we remember that it is the moments that we will always treasure...
Let us not forget that it truly is AMAZING that we are even here and that we have each other.
And I'm so very very glad.
Love,
Kim

Ornaments for Maggie
Come on Maggie....
I know you don't like it when it is cold but you have to see what sweet sweet Tiffany made just for YOU and our Christmas tree!
Please? Come on girl, wake up and take a peek ...
Ahh... thank you baby girl! Now look how CUTE these are!
Don't you just love them???? I know I do! They are going front and center on our tree!
Maggie?
Maggie??
Sigh.
I'm sorry Tiffany. She really DOES love them. And I'm sure she will thank you properly as soon as she stops shivering. She's definitely a Florida girl.
Love,
Kim & Maggie

Thank You Kathy!
- "I visited my friends with their tasteful beige homes and sometimes questioned if there was anyone else in this world who loved the things I did. Then I found Daisy Cottage and a whole community of other women who shop the side of the road, paint their furniture fun colors, and aren't afraid to fill their homes with touches of whimsy and fun. What a relief! We aren't alone! I'm not alone. Thanks for all your inspiration and for confidently sharing your home and the idea that we can have fun with our decorating. I never get tired of visiting here Kim." ~ Kathy

Thank You Lenna!
- "My eyes have been opened to a world I never knew existed. Such vibrant creativity, such caring community: it literally takes my breath away. After so much loneliness and isolation it is overwhelming to me that such a world even exists. In time I hope to be able to fill my garden of life with lovely, loving friends instead of the weeds of loneliness. Until that time lace tablecloths will come out of storage, music and lovely scents will fill the air of this home. And I shall visit the Daisy Cottage when I feel despair raise its dark, obscuring head, for I know from experience, that it is ever lurking behind that next bout of pain and weakness. Your kind and generous response has strengthened my resolve, you have helped me more than you will ever know, my new-found friend." ~ Lenna

- "Here's how I can best describe into words how your blog made me feel. You know when you wake up in the morning and there's an early morning thunderstorm and every room in your house is as dark as night? Then, the rain and thunder stop and the sun comes shining through all the windows and you just know it's going to be a beautiful, sunshine day? Well, that's how finding Dear Daisy Cottage made me feel. From the bottom of my heart, thank you Kim. You blessed my day and may God do the same for you." ~ Lisa B.

Thank You Anne!
- "Thank you for your wonderful blog. I have been "lurking" but had to share with you how much you have helped me embrace the fun of decorating. I came to your blog looking for pictures to inspire me as I redecorate my house with cottage style. Today I was so tangled up in doing it "right" that it was really depressing me. I visited your blog again for some fresh ideas and came away realizing that there is no "right." Just me being me and enjoying my home! I am laying here in bed with tears in my eyes - tears of happiness that it is okay to be me and let that shine through in my house and what I wear and what I make with my hands. You are God's gift to me today and I thank Him and you." ~ Anne
