My giveaway is still going on - you have until tomorrow to enter if you'd like to win and oh how I WISH I could give away a little something to each of you! Thank you so much for playing! ((((hugs)))
In the meantime, I wanted to share a few new things with you. Well, of course, they aren't ALL new. ;-)
For example, these old cups are definitely NOT new, but they were made in England and were worth every penny, don't you think? I found them at Goodwill this week ...
Now this IS new! I could not resist the little fringe on this Anthropologie dish towel that I found while on a shopping trip with my daughter ...
Nor could I resist these new daisies that I found at my favorite hardware store - and yes, faux flowers CAN go on a wall! ;-)
AND, I really could not resist a new, beautiful pillow created for me by the talented Teresa! I LOVE it, don't you?
And finally, I don't think that I have shared this old postcard that Becky gave me - I love it too, and I think it loves being on the wine buffet!
I hope you have a happy Friday and I'll be back soon to announce the giveaway winner!
Love,
Kim
Hello Kim, yes could not resist to that awesome pillow! It looks just perfect on your red polka dot chair. Very cute!

Very cool stuff! I especially love the pillow, I think I may make one for my little bungalow. I think 1927 would look good stamped on a pillow, don't you? Hope you enter me in your giveaway. I would love to have something from Daisy Cottage in my home. Hugs, ~cindy s~

Hi Kim,
I bought a towel with fringe on it from Anthropologie a few months and it is hanging on my stove, I couldn't resist either. I adore that pillow. Have a wonderful weekend.

Kim,
You have such an eye, and I love what your friends gave you, too! That pillow is perfect (love the crispness against your primary colors), and I love the postcard that is so perfect for you! :-)
Sending much love from the netherlands. I had wanted to get to a place we both know and love this weekend for a HS graduation and my godson's birthday (both), but I caught some sort of bug and can't make it. I'm SO disappointed. So I have been piddling around here, trying to keep from being stir crazy with so much I really need to do. LOL!
Love to you...
XO,
Sheila :-)

And no, it's netherlands without a capital "N"... what I meant was hinterlands, and I'm just hurrying and said the other. Mrs. Mallaprop rides again! ;-)
Posted by: Sheila | May 29, 2009 at 11:42 AM
Kim, Your blog reminds me that there is no place like home and reminds me to really see all the blessings that I have in my family including & esp my furry family. Love you for that, thank you Lady!

There's that red and white polka dotted upholstered rocker that I so love! You have me beat. I bought glasses (blue cobalt) at Walmart for 77 cents each. You have me beat by one cent on your buy!

Posted by: Noelle | May 29, 2009 at 04:45 PM
I love that pillow so much, and I'm wondering if it is your address, or the year your house was built? Either way, I want to make one with the year our house was built, 1926, to go on our porch swing. Love that towel too, and the cups. I never find anything at Goodwill!
Happy Weekend!

Of course I'm going to ask that my name be entered in..My name is Vintage, didn't I tell you before? lol...
I wrote about you on my blog the other day and what a blessing you have been in my life...
((Hugs))
I 'fixed' my fireplace using this delightful magazine to follow along with the pictures they had in it..YEPPER,,your pictures..LOL.
I told hubby.."hon,,I KNOW this lady. Oh my goodness, I know her".
When I first saw the pictures I thought to myself,' geez, this looks so familiar'..lol
Have a great weekend.

All the best,

Hi Kim,
I have that same tea cup except mine has two handles and a saucer. The handles are just on each side of the tea cup. I love the pattern. I should put a pic of mine on my blog so's you can see it sometime. I'll put it on my to-do list.
Happy week end to you.

Good Saturday morning Kim :)
I love all your finds as always ... the tea cups, the towel, the daisies... and I'm going to go see someone about a pillow I think ;)
Becky's gift is so cute! How sweet are those ladies with daisies in their hair?!
I hope it's as beautiful down in Florida as it is here in Ohio this morning.... Birds singing, white puffy clouds and blue skies (sigh) Have a beautiful day sweet friend :)
love you,

Your Goodwill must be a classier place than ours. Ours writes directly on their plates with a grease pencil!

Oh, Kim! Those teacups = love! You're such a good finder o' stuff! :) Also lovin' the Daisy postcard. What a thoughtful gift! One thing I love about you, and there are just so many, is your love of COLOR! I so often feel like an oddball with my friends b/c they have such a chic eye for the sublte hues (pinks, grays, creams). I love that look, but color is in my blood. Not just color, but bright color! You inspire me so and remind me that color is OK! :)
Posted by: Cheryl Bass | June 01, 2009 at 04:14 AM
Dear Kim...you always find the most perfect things at Goodwill. When I was back there Spencer and I took a drive to the GW before we headed out of town. I managed to find a wonderful Scottie to tuck in my carry on. What a wonderful GW you have...much better than ours.
Such lovely things you added to Daisy Cottage. The post card looks so sweet framed in red...thank you.....
xx
