    Come thrifting with me at some of my favorite consignment and thrift stores in the Hudson Valley! I found the perfect boho quilt for a little bedroom makeover here at the cottage.
    And while my fun little thrift haul makes me SO happy, the amazing colors in my garden are just my greatest delight these days. The bee balm is absolutely bursting out of the garden and I've been using it to make some delicious infused water.
    It's also my anniversary! I've been posting videos here on UA-cam for 2 years! It's so hard to believe that much time has gone by. I've found such a lovely, lovely community of women all over the world here who love all things boho, thrifting, and gratitude : ) It makes my heart SO happy.
    Thank you from the very bottom of my heart for being here! I appreciate you so much. I'd love to hear how things are going in your neck of the woods... drop a comment below and let me know what you're up to this weekend! I'm sending you all the biggest hugs XOXO

    ❤ when you're sitting on the bench talking about the lady who said you needed to lose weight, my heart went out to you because it is not true. You are beautiful and there are many men who would find You Beautiful Just the Way You Are.

      Maybe you don’t have to change to find a man…. Maybe the men you meet need to change….and not their weight? Did you ever think that you don’t “NEED” just any man but would enjoy a man with same interests & qualities as you? It just might surprise you to met that special person while doing something you enjoy. Eating or having coffee at your favorite place? At the dog park when you both are enjoying watching your dogs playing? At the antique store while you are browsing? Etc….just go out there & enjoy life & it will happen. Don’t be afraid to speak to people or break the ice by asking a question. Your puppy could be your biggest guy magnet! You are very a very special lady…… so be choosy…..you are worth it!

I just moved last month to a retirement village here in Florida. I will get to create a garden in the spring and I will take my inspiration from you. Thank you for showing your beautiful style to us.

    I am so grateful to have found ur videos recently. Ive been binging on them. U have such a beautiful soul and are so creative. Ur photography is amazing and is a feast for my eyes. The fact that u were able to share the memory of the lady who had such negative advice shows growth. U are absolutely beautiful inside and out. At almost 88 yrs old, Ive learned that I dont care what others think of me, as long as I know who I am and God loves me? .❤ Other than hot beverages, I drink everything else at room temperature. Never use ice. U are so blessed to live in such a beautiful place and experience the magic of nature.
    I lived yards away from the Delaware River in Chester, Pa. and never realized that it ran as far as Hudson Valley. Ĥudson Valley looks like Paradise to me and a wonderful place to call home for now. Each video I watch, I feel like Im visiting a friend and Im left with such a sense of peace and serenity and beauty. I love ur Charlie! I rescued a 4 yr old chihuahua mix, who was unsocialized and very neglected as she lived in the backyard since a puppy with a 150# Russian Lion dog. Need I say more? Her name is Lola, she's been with me for 4-1/2 years now, and she's still a work in progress. She makes my heart smile, tho.😍 I, too, love thrifting, boho and vintage, dresses, hats, and makeup.💕 Ur dresses are so romantic and feminine and fit in perfectly with ur landscape photos. Hold onto all your videos forever. They are definitely keepsake memories and such treasures. Oh, how I would love to live in ur Boho cottage❤ ciao for now.

    Happy 2 year anniversary, Kate! Loved the bee balm, lavender and sunflowers. We are half way through our summer season and I so appreciated all the wonderful garden delights you shared. Slow summer sweetness for 21 minutes! Thank you so much.

    My sister and I were going through a hard time together just a month ago. We both love to paint with water colors, so we decided to take our paints and head for a peaceful place as an escape from it all. We ended up at Mills Mansion just a bench or two away from where you sat! I will treasure the memory! BTW, watch out for little old busybody ladies who have no filter! You are gorgeous!

    Comfort. Calm. Nostalgia. Those are the words that describe your channel. In this video, especially, do those words fit. What a swirl of homesickness I felt, as I watched your lovely video. I miss the East Coast. I miss the quaint, delicate, beautiful nature the East gives. My heart belongs there. Watching you walk the sweet streets and shopping in the beautiful little stores, I got to missing home. Thank you for sharing the special vibe that the East Coast emits. I felt a little closer to home. Thank you for that. Now, here is something for you. You are always sharing your heart with the world, now, it is time for us to give back to you. The way to do that, is to write encouraging things, to show you how much we care. I read some of your comments, and, it seems everyone is loving you and your channel as I am. There are some of us who have watched every one of your videos starting from your first one, and, in doing that we have all seen you evolve. You have grown strong, more sure, more confident, and from that, you are a more wonderful version from two years ago. Your story about the woman on the bench was incredible. The way you told it, you had courage with a little humor stuck in. I bet, you could not have told that story with such dignity and a smile, years ago. But now, you can. That is growth. You should feel proud of that. I know that woman hurt you, and, that is sad, as, it is not true. Nobody has to look a certain way to get their soulmate. They just have to be who they are meant to be, and that will be enough. A kindred spirit will be found. Kindness, compassion, interests, those are what bind us together. If we relied solely on looks, wow would I be in trouble. I am as tall as a ten year old and as knobby kneed as any elementery school girl. I have giant glasses and dress in comfy, out of date clothes, but, here I am, married for thirty one years and with four children. My beautiful husband chose me, 4 foot ten, gawky, half blind, but, with a giant heart, kindness that won’t beat, a love of life, nature, learning. That is what matters. So, you go be you, and love will find you, I have no doubt.

    Thankyou for this post, I've had a very dear friend staying with me for two days and being alone tonight, I was really hoping for some positive happy content to watch; was so glad to see that you had recently posted. I LOVE your channel, not just your style, but the calm and honest way you speak and share your stories. Your smile is pure magic and you have those smiling eyes that are so uplifting to others! It's so refreshing to hear someone acknowledging their challenges but always finding something to be positive about and never actually complaining or obsessing about problems. As for gorgeous little Charlie, I absolutely adore him! I have a chihuahuaXcavalier called Rosey and they have very similar temperaments. Congratulations on your flowers, they are magnificent! Thankyou again for your inspirational and calming videos, take care xx

You've been a soft landing ground and bright light during tough times. Sending you so much love (and that very sad old lady was projecting her own fears because clearly you're a gorgeous earth angel! That's happened to me as well, and it can feel so conflicting)

We don’t have them here in the uk but I did visit a friend that lived in Seattle and we sat in her garden watching hummingbirds coming in and out 😮 it was so amazing I’ll never forget it. Thank you for your beautiful videos I love them so much and I really hope to visit your part of the world one day. Xxx

Thank you for sharing your world with us! To the woman who sat on the bench with the younger Katie, shame on you!!! What other words could you have chosen, to show love and kindness? I hope you do not take those words to your heart dear, she was WRONG to say them! Wishing you cool breezes, and beautiful days!

I just love changing things in my little house....every season is a new look. Pillows, quilts, throws, etc. Oh .....that old woman was absolutely rude in her opinion with her unsolicited and negative statements! You are perfect just the way you are! Beautiful and sweet and natural. Don't you dare change! Your little boho cottage and lovely gardens are so peaceful and cozy. Enjoy the peace and serenity they bring you.

    ✨🎉Congratulations on 2 years! I do love your videos and enjoy them so much. I find you very inspiring ❤️… I also agree that your beautiful soul shines thru and I hope one day you find your soulmate, but you are living a lovely life now & that is sooo important. I got married at 45 for the first time & he is my best friend. I have another friend who found her soulmate at 64. I so agree - better to wait and find a truly good match. But I remember fearing I would never find one… I remember having to shift my thought to my life now & enjoy the flowers along the way. Some days were easier than others. Even so - I would still rather be alone than in a bad relationship. There is much joy to be found in life with fuzzy loves & good friends & books & your music. ❤️🌷🎉✨ Wishing you the best! Lynne

All looks lovely and cheerful Butterflies and Bees and Humming birds all around you. It's been a delight watching you grow and thrive over the last few years, you have found your happy place.

    You can totally make a headboard with found linens, sheets, bedspreads, curtains might be perfect. Or layer sheer or lace over something else. The frame would be super cheap and I know you could make it yourself. You might just be able to tack a molding over the bed on the wall to hang them from!!

You are meant to be doing this as your inspiration and talent with the camera is just awesome. It’s too bad such a lovely place to sit and relax ended up bringing back a “not so great” memory. This little old lady obviously was speaking of her days growing up and the way things should be, not realizing we do not have to cater to those beliefs anymore, thank goodness!! We all know already how beautiful you are inside and out so nobody is perfect right? Anyway thank you again for sharing your vulnerability and as always I look forward to your next video….Lisa 🤗🙏💓

    Thank you for this wonderful video, so full of color,of some marvelous and precious humor (loved that very quick scene of the adorable silliness occurring in the first thrift store that you visited) - I love that! And your gorgeous ruby pink and lavender garden and all the bouquets in your happy home, and the nervy older lady on the bench who was obviously to me, “ Miss Inappropriate” to most everyone. You have bouquets everywhere, and the new fabric bouquet was so charming too! Might I just add that when people are hurtful, they are hurting themselves and need to feel better by finding a target. I’m not excusing that little lady’s words, but it has helped me to shed my own little moments when I’ve been in similar situations. Knowing that their comments have nothing to do with me has truly helped me to wonder, to be curious about what their suffering is, thus taking it off of me, and letting it go quickly. Enjoy your gorgeous garden, Kate - your videos always bring such sweetness to my Sundays! Thank you! 💜🙏🪻🌷🌺🌻🕊

    Hi Kate & Charlie. I love going back and seeing your past videos. I didn't think Charlie could be cuter. until going back and seeing him as a puppy. I have been concerned about yall. I had heard on tv that New York had had some tornadies and really unusual westher. thankful yall are safe. It is so beautiful and lush there. Here in Texas, it's just hot, hot, hot! The rain is such a blessing when we can get it. I love the new quilt you bought and seeing you and Charlie cuddle on it! This was a great video. You have such a sweet smile, Kate, and I love to hear you laugh. Oh, Charlie's protective bark at the groundhog running through his garden was adorable. I hope yall continue to have a great summer. Oh, by the way, I like my wate,r ice cold! Take care, sweet friend, and please give Charlie some loving from me!
