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

Do You Want To Know?

Do you want to know why my dining room tablescape is the most beautiful and loveliest of all dining room tablescapes ever?

Because of ONE reason ...

Thank you AGAIN very much for sharing your heart with Jack. Remember, if you would like to participate in Hearts for Jack, please email me for my mailing address. If you have already emailed me and you didn't hear back from me, pretty please try again as that means that I didn't receive it. Please mail your heart to me by March 31.

Love,

Kim

Hi Kim - Thanks for reminding me that I need to get the heart I made for Jack into the mail at "my post office" (see I follow your advice) TODAY! I finished it weeks ago and have not mailed it. Bentley and I will take a little walk over to our local post office and send it to you. Bentley says hi to Miss Maggie! Have a great weekend!

Love,
Susan and Bentley

Posted by: Mary Lou | March 05, 2010 at 11:56 AM

Oh, yes, that is the sweetest tablescape I've ever seen!
As in...."my table floweth over...."

P.S. The sun is shining here today...woot woot!!

Posted by: Robyn | March 05, 2010 at 12:12 PM

You're gonna need a truck to deliver all that to Jack.

Posted by: Gail | March 05, 2010 at 12:14 PM

Kim,

So glad you are better, and how fun!

Posted by: Herself | March 05, 2010 at 12:27 PM

Oooh i think mine is the one in the white envelope... I can't wait to see them all when you open them! I hope Jack is pleasantly surprised by all who care!
Thank you!

Kim

Such a beautiful picture. What a truly amazing outpouring of love. It warms my heart to see how much all of us care. My hearts left this week, and hopefully will get to you soon. How exciting!!!!! There is much love on your dining table.

Posted by: Marianne & Mindy | March 05, 2010 at 12:37 PM

Kim...
I come here everyday to get my Kim and Daisy Cottage fix. It never ceases to amaze me how the music and content soothes my soul... You are a very very very very special lady....
Hugs

How wonderful!

Posted by: Jackie | March 05, 2010 at 01:11 PM

Amazing! People are so kind and caring! ~Dan~

Posted by: Dan | March 05, 2010 at 01:12 PM

Jack is going to be so overwhelmed. He'll need a whole separate room for all the love in these hearts...wow.

Posted by: RockerJewlz | March 05, 2010 at 01:34 PM

I rarely well up with emotion, stiff upper lip you know! However, I just read the story today of Jack and his beautiful bride. Her fight with cancer could have been mine. I have been in cancer free for 26 years now....I so wish she had been also.

The idea of the pillows from your reader is just a gift from God that came through that angel who thought of the project. You can believe that I will spread this idea the next time one of my faculty members or their families have an occasion that needs support like this.

Oh my, what a lovely message this sends to Jack. Love, Sheila

Posted by: Sheila | March 05, 2010 at 03:49 PM

Hearts on the table...beautiful! So much love to share!

Hope you will stop by and see my 're-done' guestroom.

Kim, It is so wonderful to see your table overflowing with hearts for Jack! Mine is on its way. I took your idea and sent some hearts off to dear ones of mine. Reconnected with my best friend and am so happy to share the love.
Peace

I cannot sew a stitch. It's a sweet idea.

Posted by: Kristen | March 05, 2010 at 06:11 PM

Hi Kim,

I tried emailing you several times but it keeps coming back rejected. I have made a heart but I have no address to send it to. Can you email me,so that I can send it.
Thanks,

Can't think of a sweeter home to gather all the hearts for Jack ♥

WOW!!! THAT'S BEAUTIFUL!!! Trish xox :)

Posted by: Trish Rowley | March 05, 2010 at 11:55 PM

Hi Kim,
I have a feeling that pile on your table is only the begining. I sent mine out on Thursday so you should be getting it tomorrow or Monday. Kim, your kindness is contagious. And let us not forget Tammy who thought of this heartwarming hug for Jack. You are both truly inspirational.
You can make a pile of mail look beautiful.
Thank you for always lifting my spirits and inspiring me to be a better me.
Love,
Kate

Posted by: Kate Reddan | March 06, 2010 at 06:43 AM

Dear Kim,
I'm so sorry I didn't see this before the end of March! If I did, I would certainly send a heart for Jack. What a great idea! Wonderful to know that good will and true emotions conects people no matter where on this beautiful planet they live.
Warm hug,
Slavica

Your Beautiful Hearts For Jack

Thank You Dear Sis!

Thank you Fifi!

"It's people like yourself that make everything beautiful and worthwhile." ~ Fifi

Thank You Ida!

Kim I just wanted to thank you again for allowing us into your sweet home! I absolutely loved being there and looking around with you. Your hospitality and sweet spirit make the home even more beautiful! Thanks for reminding me that one day I too will have my "dream come true!" ~ Ida - MOPS Member

Thank You Jane!

"I just discovered your blog and am blown away with the comfortable, almost nostalgic feel of it...almost like finding a long-lost friend after many years apart...somehow familiar, but all so exciting and new." ~ Jane

Thank You Dena!

"Kim, I love your blog. I so appreciate you sharing every day. I miss you when you're gone. Losing my dear sweet baby boy in Iraq has made me treasure life and those so dear to me. Reading your blog is such therapy for me. You have made me treasure the finer things in life that I use to overlook. Birds singing, flowers blooming, my home and all of the treasures within it. I'm not sure that I ever looked at a teacup or saucer and saw such detail and beauty in it." ~ Dena

Thank You Grace!

"I would like to let you know what a joy it is to wake up each morning and read your delightful blog. I always feel as if you are speaking directly to me. Since I was diagnosed with an immune disease a year ago I wanted only to read positive and very inspiring blogs and your blog was the first I found. I think maybe the good Lord meant for me to find your blog and since then it has been nothing but smiles all around. I have tried very hard to stay positive about this disease and very up beat. I know that there is no cure and I have accepted this, but reading things with a positive message and filled with so much love helps. This is where you come in and I just wanted to say thank you from the bottom of my heart and to let you know how very much you and Miss Maggie are loved." ~ Grace

Thank You Francesca!

"Oh my! I have just stepped into heaven. A nostalgic, magic, getaway place where folk love one another and life is sweet. Kim, you will probably never know just how many hearts you have touched with your site. " ~ Francesca

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 Rue!

"That hankie is like you and your blog Kim. In the middle of all of the other beautiful hankies, it's the one that stands out and makes you feel at home." ~ Rue

Thank You Jeanette!

"Sigh.... between your music, red and yellow mellow feeling and wonderful writing I just feel so calm. What would I do without you in the morning with my cup of coffee." ~ Jeanette

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

Thank You Rose!

"What I love best about Daisy Cottage is Kim. I love the way you appreciate every good thing in life and embrace joy in every moment." ~ Rose

Thank You Lisa!

"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 Pamela!

"I am so touched by your words and photographs. Whether in happy or sad times, you inspire my heart and soul. We all need each other's light and you offer us that dose of sunshine." ~ Pamela

Thank you Joy!

"Your blog has helped me start to see the beauty in life again." ~ Joy

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

Thank You Tracy!

"Your words and thoughts of encouragement help me see myself with value. You are a blessing. Thank you." ~ Tracy

Thank you Karen!

"Your humble spirit has not changed through your many posts here in Blogland. You have been blessed with a special gift and I am very thankful you share it with us." ~ Karen

Thank You Betty Jo!

"You truly inspire me to do whatever I can in my own little nest. I've always been an artistic dreamer, but you've enlarged my dreams with your way of seeing." ~ Betty Jo
