Happy Friday!
Happy Fall!
Happy Me and Happy Y'all!
;-)
Well this week FLEW by! At least it did for me! Oh, and speaking of flew - our missing Jaybird flew by too and now her box is on its' way!
I wanted to share the happiest of things that have arrived in my mail box or at my door!
When I saw this pillow that Kathy SO beautifully made, I KNEW that I had to have it for Daisy Cottage!
Isn't it the CUTEST?? I LOVE it! Thank you Kathy for creating something so adorable! If you haven't visited Kathy's Cottage yet, please treat yourself to a visit - you will love her as much as I do.
Remember Kelly? Well, look at some of the delightful treasures that she SO sweetly sent to me...
AND she created this wonderful card for me too ...
Wasn't this SO SWEET of her to do??? Thank you Kelly!! I love EVERY single treasure! Oh, and try to stop by Kelly's place again when you can - she's been playing house and I promise that you will LOVE what she has done!
Last week I had the GREAT pleasure of meeting Sue - a beautiful member of our Dear Daisy Cottage family! She is also so incredibly sweet and it was a thrill to have her here. She wanted me to have this vintage treasure...
The colors are FABULOUS and sooooo perfect for Daisy Cottage! I LOVE it!
Sue created this special card for me too ...
Wasn't that so kind of her? Thank you Sue for EVERYTHING! Please promise me that you will visit again and make sure that you bring your sister too! ;-)
I also wanted to share that I have a story in the latest BEAUTIFUL issue of Romantic Country! Yay!!!!
I had the honor of writing about our own Janet, of Shabbyfufu! You will LOVE her feature and seeing her gorgeous home - so inspiring as we approach the holiday season!
And speaking of love - you all know how much I love this fabulous girl!
Well Fifi is having a contest! You can read all about it here! I can't wait to see what all you create!
Thank you Kathy, Kelly, and Sue! I LOVE my new treasures!
And thank you Fifi-girl - for ALL that you do.
I'll be back tomorrow with the winner of this giveaway!
