This winter season my heart
is held captive...
A simple Farm style holiday...
This Christmas season
I have such joy
in my heart for a beautiful new year ahead...
Each time I rescue an unwanted love
along the road or one that I pulled from the heap
I wonder who missed your true beauty?
Then I realize you were left for me
to find
to love
to adore
as a precious gift to my soul...

Enjoy your weekend and the rest of the holiday season. Hugs.
You inspire me so. I cant wait for each post. Merry Christmas to you and your family. I look forward to the New Year with you!
I'm knee deep in elves, but I wanted to stop by and wish you a Merry Christmas before the season slipped away. Visiting here always makes me slow down and breathe for just a moment. Thank you for always providing me with that moment. You do a wonderful job of helping to put peace on my earth. Love you.

Lovely, peaceful post ...as always. Wishing you and your family a Merry Christmas!
Hello sweet friend... your decorations are all so beautiful... I love your wooden star you made... and yes, I too always wonder who once owned my treasures... I listen for their stories always... "whispers from the past" I call them... your petite silver tree is just precious too... wishing you a very Merry Christmas... xoxo Julie Marie

The beauty in your heart prepares you to see beauty on the roadside or in the pile of things others throw away. Your heart is beautifully obvious. As well as are the things you create....
Merry Christmas sweet lady.
Beautiful! The star is amazing! Sad that someone threw out that beautiful chair, but happy that you were able to rescue her! I hope you have a very Merry Christmas!
So pretty! The chair is a wonderful piece and I really like the fence slat stars. I adore stars ;) Merry Christmas to you and your loved ones as well.
Merry merry Christmas to you too my friend...that chair is a treasure. I think I would tie a big satin bow on the back or hang a wreath in that hole. Your home is always beauty and peace. xo

Your treasures turned out beautifully! I hope you have a wonderful Christmas with those you love...XO

Kate,
Such an elegant and peacefully decorated holiday home. The star, oh my that chair, matter of fact everything is beautiful. Just as one would expect after being magically transformed by your talented creative hands.
Merry Christmas,
Vera
Beauty is all yours Kate, it all looks so dreamy and pure.
Love the star of course and had a chair come to me with no back and I added the jute mesh and covered it for comfort, but I rather like seeing the beauty of yours sitting in its emptiness :)
All is calm here Kate and all is good and pure.
Lots of holiday love
Blessed are we to know him.
Xoxo

Wishing you the happiest of holiday seasons Kate and thank you for all the beauty you share and teaching us all to see the beauty in everyone and everything!
Merry Christmas to you and yours, Kate. Your decor is always a breath of fresh air.
Sweet Kate you always make rustic look elegant! I adore everything you do! I've had a 2 week break, but will be featuring you tomorrow at SYC. Wishing you a happy and HEALTHY New Year!
