Old and Beautiful

Isn't it wonderful when we can see the beauty in the less than perfect things that surround us and even in the shabby, old, and discarded? We ARE lucky, aren't we?

I think so.

Beauty is truly in the eyes of the beholder. And, blessed are the eyes that are able to behold beauty in all.

We are all blessed through your eyes.

Hi Kim! I've been absent from blog land far too long! I love your sentiment, AND the blue chair! :)

[Jenny]

Oh Kim-
I'm just in love with your sweet home. I've been a "blog stalker" for quite some time now. My husband and I just moved into a new house last week, and while it's not a cottage like yours, I'm using Daisy Cottage for my inspiration!

If you have time, check out my blog. I've recently started a blog design business and would love it if you have any friends in need of blog makeovers to point my way!

Kim, I have the mate to your lovely old chair, and a set of glasses just like those, only in pink!

We are indeed very lucky!
