Happy Monday to you! I hope you all have had a wonderful week! It is still hot here but the light is softening and I just know that fall is coming! ;-) I have been in the mood to play house but don't want to spend very much or if any money! So what does one do when one gets the urge to freshen up her surroundings but without spending anything? One raids closets, and goes under beds, and searches drawers - that's what said one does!

I have had the upstairs guest room white and serene for awhile and while it was pretty, it never called my name to come back and continue loving on it. Hmmmm ..... perhaps it was the one room that I strayed from my true love of color and pattern? Yes, as the light bulb went off in my head AND heart - that is why! I am keeping the walls white but I am filling the room with all things color and pattern and I am loving it so far! This space will embrace my inner boho spirit, which believe me, is even stronger now than ever! I don't think I have ever shared the tiny bathroom in there before but you can see it above. I will add some red in here. The gold vintage drapes were a Goodwill score and I hung them yesterday using a hammer and just three tiny nails. I love the little sink in there too. Anywho, the rest of the images are from the rooms that you have seen. My poor office needs to be completely redone! It is small and has no closets so storage is always an issue. But the vibe in here is so wonderful and I truly feel the energy from so many .... all of the precious cards and notes sent to me over the past 10 plus years of sharing Dear Daisy Cottage are in here, along with the handmade hearts given to me long ago. So many sweet things in here... I always do feel the love. And that means more to me than you will ever know.

And speaking of love, our fur babies are such a part of our homes and families, aren't they?

As I often say, I can't imagine life any other way.

Love to you,
Kim

I love it, and can just imagine the fun you had doing this. I am in the process of retiring and my house is up for sale, but I have had fun staging it for showings, using what I already have with buying some inexpensive things like new shower curtains and throw rugs.

It's like feathering your nest for fall and winter. Love your creative spirit and how you are true to your inner boho.

Always fun to see what changes you are making in Daisy Cottage. Good to see the pics of the fur babies too....what would our lives be without them?

Kim, I have been really wanting to decorate and play house too without spending any money. I just love seeing what you've done here. The gold bathroom is so lovely, and a bit of red added will be nice. I am also a lover of Bohemian, and it speaks to my heart. Your collection of tea cups is delightful. And your office is so creative and wonderful. Such a charming space, I love it all.
