Always Room For Color
Whether it be freshly laundered napkins in a lemony yellow.....
Or three floral paintings done by three aspiring artists .....
Or an orange candelabra, because of course, orange fits right in at Daisy Cottage .....
Or an old cookbook with a colorful cover ....
There is ALWAYS room for thrifted treasures and a little more color at Daisy Cottage!

I've been lurking around your blog recently. I absolutely love all the vintage goodness here! So, I thought it was time to leave a comment, introduce myself & say Hello.
I also collect vintage items & I love sharing them with everyone! I have started hosting a weekly blog carnival called Vintage Thingies Thursdays. I think you'll really enjoy it. Come on over. I'll fix you a glass of iced tea & you can put your feet up!

This morning is getting off to a great start!
Beautiful photos, as always!

Thanks for sharing your lovely colors with us. I especially have a soft spot for all of the yellows. Yellow is just a feel good color.
You brightened my day. It is windy, cool and overcast there today.

Looks like Kim has been visiting the Goodwill or Vintage again. I love the nnpkins/paintings/chany/cookbook. You have such good taste and Daisy Cottage just sparkles. You have 80+degree weather today and I want some of it. LOL

I have always been a "yellow" person. I guess it reminds me of sunshine. And red. Red and yellow is me. My oldest daughter and I were talking on the phone one day about decorating. And I said I thought that now that she's 33 and a mother, I felt we'd sort of adopted the same decor themes somewhat. Her response was: "But don't you still hang the quilts you made and use a lot of yellow?" She said yellow like it was a dirty word. And I laughed. "Yes," I said. "But open your current Pottery Barn catalog and you'll see yellow is now in." (She adores Pottery Barn). Yellow was never "out" with me.

COLOR?? WOW!!! Whenever I need a little "Sunshine Cheer" I go to DAISY COTTAGE.
I hit a couple yard sales this AM and acquired a bit of color myself.
Love your "finds"
