I am 69 years young and I love Kate's creative bohemian life! It takes me right back to when I was 18 and had my first apartment. I had no money so I made everything in my place. I made a huge colorful batik tapestry for the wall, and my senior year of high school I lugged around a velvet braided rug I was working on. I made it out of a pair of long velvet drapes. Everything else I got from thrift stores or trash piles. I was so happy making whole wheat homemade bread in my tiny kitchen!
Oh, my; this video was sooo needed today! Thank you for sharing your beautiful walking path, thrift shop adventures, beautiful home, and little Charlie with all of us. I loved that yellow gingham check dress you didn't buy, and the orange earrings, and the little cat statue!! People on Marketplace are getting out of hand with their prices. And, if there actually IS something worth buying, and it's listed for a reasonable price, good luck being the first one to reply to the ad! I bet you will find that mantel at some very unexpected place. Keep looking! Enjoy these beauuuuutiful fall days. I love them so much and quite literally mourn when all the colors are gone for many months. P.S. You have a very, very thoughtful mother! 🥰
As I’m sure you know, if you see something out of season that you fall in love with and would get a lot of use out of it, go ahead and buy it! You know you won’t ever see it again, dear girl. I would have worn that lovely silky robe over an old flannel nightgown! Follow your bliss!
Im sure you know this already, but you can rotate your art so that you can have a fresh look for your home in any season. Your home is very nicely decorated. Switching things out for a season will bring new freshness and inspiration. Thanks for sharing.
So happy to see a new video! I'm A 68 yo Mimi of 8 and I love watching your videos! It feels so good to see a bohemian young woman! You remind me of my youth! If I was young,again, I feel we could be friends! Thanks for sharing your life with us! ❤
Thank you for taking us thrifting with you. You should totally go back for that embroidered picture. The universe will send you your mantle. Keep visualizing it and it will come to you. Maybe it's hidden away in an old barn nearby! Loved the little quilted piece you got...such cheerful colors.
You are good for my soul. Your lifestyle, your gardens, your love for Charley, your optimism all speak to me. Thank you for your inspiration and love of nature. 🥰👏👏😮
Very nice stories and scenery. Photography. Flowers being pressed. Such cute outfits for Charlie sparkling ✨️ outfits. I know the sparkles are from the gift paper. They will come off. 🙂 I had never seen a flower presser before. Until now. you have fun on that trampoline. All the work you put into your loving home and gardens show. 🪴 🌿 🪴 thats a cute kitty cat. Black with a white chest charlie doesnt mind him or her. . Nice that you share your vegetables you have grown with your friends 🧡 🫛 🫛 🫛 Thanks for the great video you so relax me. Your calm voice and nice manners your a very gentle soul.✌️ ❤ fall 🍂 🍁 🍃 🍂 🍁 🍃 🍂 🍁🎃 🎃 🎃
Watching you open the gifts from your mom made my heart happy. I miss my mom so much, but seeing yours send you and Charlie those gifts made me cry happy tears. ♥
She needs someone to take her inside. Not safe for kitties to be running around loose in the woods.She looks quite young, and must be spayed so she doesn’t have babies out there. Way to many homeless animals in shelters and abandoned by bad owners. 🙏🏻🐈
Beautiful video, as usual… I was sad for Charlie because he will no longer have a bean-bean to munch on…until…I saw his excitement for his stinky new salmon treats, lol… I hope the paint remover works..Vaseline will also help soften and clean the road paint off your wheel wells…. Your mom sent lovely presents to you guys, glitter and all, lol!! Thank you for sharing, you’re so talented, kind and genuine. You have truly made a difference in my life, your videos set the tone for my day, inspire me to be more creative, take care of myself and to soak in the wonderful beauty around me… thank you Kate❤… Beth
Thank you (your neighbor) for having the kitty fixed! (I have 8 rescue cats because ppl do not fix their cats!). Is anyone going to provide some insulated shelter for the kitty this winter?
On a random note, I think your straight, sleek hair style in this video looks amazing. It’s so shiny and healthy and it really suits you 💛. I hope you manage to get your fire surround and mantelpiece soon 🤞🏻
Another affordable idea for finding a beautiful mantle is at an architectural salvage yard. You can find pieces of wooden mantles or other things that can be used just like a mantle. I know what it's like when you want to find something and don't want to wait. I've done my share of that. Sweet Charlie. We all want to hug him! Charlie has a loving, sparkly grandma. I always look forward to watching your videos.
I was going to suggest Architectural Salvage. Often they are very budget friendly and have fantastic pieces since the buildings that they are removed from have historic significance.
ThankYou for another lovely video, Kate. I just wanted to say that even though the beautiful colorful flowers will be going away soon you have a most inspirational and colorful cottage to hibernate in during the long dark months of winter . Have a wonderful evening .🥰
Build the meow a little shelter. What a sweet lil' one. Maybe Charlie will grow to like kitty. And the fallen wood is perfect for your fire pit. 🔥 ... 🌌🌬💜 All the best to you Sweet Lady Kate. 🌼
Oh how I missed a video from you last week, but so excited to have one pop up now! It seems everyone that watches really loves you & your beautiful work. It’s probably redundant to say, but your videos are stunning! Happy Fall & God Bless you & Charlie❤️
My daughter is moving to the West Point NY area. I just spent a week with her finding an apartment. The area is absolutely gorgeous! I thought of you and shared your channel with her. Your videos are lovely!
We picked the last tomatoes the eve of our first frost. Zucchini too. I made a few quarts with them of Italian style squash with onions and garlic and Italian herbs... mmm!!! Time to put away my summer scene in my small back garden area, but I'm determined to find something to do to create a better winter scene to look out at from my kitchen window and patio doors! I've decided that this is the answer to my sad feelings as I let go of my lovely warm weather tableau. Your past firepit efforts inspired me to get myself a gas one for my covered patio last spring. Now to focus on rearranging everything to make enjoying my own fire when it's not too frigid out! My patio is covered so the gas pit is perfect. You two have me the giggles with the unboxing scene! Charlie got so into it, and the glitter ended up a very funny plot twist ❤ Happy mantle hunting! You'll find something just right and I look forward to seeing what you finally do! Love and hugs to you and Charlie, and I sure hope the paint remover worked!
Hi Kate and Charlie! As one season closes, another opens. Grapes would look so cool on one of your trellises! If you have a salvage yard near you they may have mantels. Charlie is going to look quite the man about town with his new duds!! Have a great weekend and hugs to both of you!❤
Autumn is my favourite time of year. To me, there is nothing better than walking on a blustery day with crisp autumn leaves crackling underfoot. I found your observation about the ability to be flexible in the world these days, so true and insightful. Nature has a lot to teach us. I love watching your vlogs and so enjoy your cosy home and have fallen in love with Charlies soulful eyes. He is such a sweetie and a total blessing. Enjoy the rest of this lovely transitional month. Take Care. Bright blessings from Shropshire, England. Debs X
This video made my heart happy😊 Charlie is just adorable. Thank you for taking us along with you on your thrifting adventures@! I have a mantle over my fake fireplace I found at an Antique Mall. I know you will find the right one for your cute little cottage.
Aaawww, little black kitty!🍂🍁🍂 thank you for giving me this beautiful video so that I can live vicariously through it. I truly miss my favorite season. AUTUMN🍁🍂🍁🍂Marigolds are a dream flower!!🌼🌼🌼
What a pleasure it is for me to watch you & your trips to here & there! I love to thrift shop too. Most of the time when I visit one I see something I've grown up with, maybe not owning but brings me back to my past . Thanks for your channel! C.
What gorgeous scenery Kate, thank you for showing us all that beautiful color! I especially loved the orange and red tree tunnel! Charlie will look SO CUTE in those jumpers from grandma! I think you should leave the glitter on them until it wears off, because cute little Charlie look’s adorable and handsome in sparkles! I hope you and Charlie have a wonderful wonderful week Kate. Love from Australia ❤🇦🇺
I'm sitting here on my recliner watching and enjoying your video with Pebble, my dog and my daughter's dog Brown Sugar on my lap. Brown sugar likes to growl at any animal on TV. He loves to watch TV. Thank you Kate for sharing your story and cute Charlie!
Hi, Dear Kate, So happy that you have shared your outing to thrifting and enjoying the beautiful area where you live. Cherlie is lucky boy to have a Gran with such good taste in pooch clothes. He looks fab. Many thanks, you add light to my life. Cheers, Lizzie from Oz.💐🌼🌻🌈🦘

New England girl here, living in Florida. Love your videos. It warms my heart to see my favorite season through you. Where i live, it's green, all the time. I miss the colors. Thank you for this. Also, Charlie is so sweet and so stinkin cute in his new outfits. Much love ❤️
I so ENJOYED this video Kate!! Such beautiful scenery where you are. Loved going thrifting with you, yes go back and get those items you loved. Your precious dog always makes me smile, he is full of love and happiness! Good luck on finding your perfect mantle. Little Charlie looks adorable in his new jacket. Thank you for sharing with us some new adventures and smiles. Sending much Love & Peace to you & little Charlie. 🥀🌹🥀🌹Gail 🌹🥀❤️Have a wonderful weekend, until your next video 😘.
Leave the glitter on!!!😂😂😂😂 Charlie deserves a little sparkle in his wiggle walk. Thanks for another heartwarming video especially with all the leaves. ❤
So glad to see a new video 😊 Charlie looked so handsome in his new jacket! I so love cooler weather but I do miss the beautiful flowers. Hope Charlie and you have a wonderful weekend
You look so pretty, your hair is styled different it looks soft and healthy, thank you for taking me on your journey, Blessings 🙌 ✨, big hugs for little Charlie 🤗
As always, thank you. Nearing the end of my seasonal guiding and I am tired. Your videos are such a pick me up. A moment to sit down and savour on a much needed day off. Merci beaucoup!
Save your money to get your mantle, you’ll find just the right one. You won’t be happy until you do. Skip the Knick-knacks, and go back and get that vintage nightgown!!! 🥰 I love the music and scenery in this video. Hugs!
I’m always so surprised that your area looks so much like my area in Alberta around Calgary. It’s stunning in the fall. Lucky Charlie. He has a whole new Fall wardrobe. My mini golden doodle, Matty is jealous. 🤗🇨🇦🤗
I love, love when you go thrifting! And I love your walks in the woods. We are surrounded with woods but don’t have the neat trails nearby. And I must admit, I’m very uneasy walking in deserted areas alone. Thanks so much for your delightful videos!❤
Try Hoffman's Barn in Red Hook for the Mantel. They have tons of windows, doors, mantels and furniture. Roger and Pam are great. I would love it if you would name the thrift shops. Thank you 😊😊
Loved this❤. We’ve had a gorgeous autumn here in upstate New York, the trees are in all their glory🍂🍁🍂. It’s always so much fun to find new thrift shops and even better when we find that special something we’ve been hunting for
Oh you get to see next year . They now growing things inside . You amazing with your drone , did just take a flight and know how to do it lol much love the 💫🩵to you and Charlie happy Halloween 🍄
I love watching your videos. Fall is my favorite time of the year and we have actually had a wonderful October here in Georgia. So pretty every day...I sit out on my deck every day with the blue sky, trees, and deer in my backyard....what could be better? Charlie is so cute !!! Thanks for the video and see ya next time! Peace...Z
Charlie looks too cute in his little coat! If I tried to put a coat on my cat Onyx, she'd probably just fall over..LOL Chad and I were out today, dropping off a few orders and then we went to the local Spirit store. One of my customers lives down this wooded road that runs behind a park and we're hitting peak fall colors here now and it was so beautiful to drive out there! I also love seeing her two dogs. She has a chocolate Lab named Tatiana and a Great Dane named Mr. Legs. I really love seeing all my customers furbabies..:) Have a great weekend!
Beautiful colours so uplifting….poor Charlie ..he’s so tiny . It’s strange how sometimes nothing turns up at the charity shops and at others you can find just the perfect thing.lovely gifts too from your mum? Thank you for showing us such beauty near you. Challenging isn’t it…this time of year. Can’t say I like the winter, although Being cozy indoors is a highlight or a snowy bright day is great but very rare here in sw uk. Just very grey🫤
I love Fall. The trees in MO were so pretty this week. I love Charlie’s outfits. That was sweet of your mom. Sorry you didn’t find your mantle. Maybe soon.
So gorgeous. I never get tired of the beautiful views and your wonderful ability to frame a shot and edit so well! Thank you for sharing your world with us in such a visually compelling way! PS: get yourself a hard hat or pith helmet, no joke, for walking in the woods in wind like that. You might still get knocked over but your brain will be protected.
Kate, call your local Home Depot and Lowe’s for a mantle. Sometimes they have them. Wish I could have been thrifting with you. Cute things. Love Charlie❤🤗
How wonderful your fall is. Not one leaf left on the trees here. You can still dress in summer clothes! We are having a warmer fall than usual here in Norway, but long time since I had bare legs outside! 😅 I just hope the snow will stay away! Love the gifts from grandma. Had to laugh at the glitter. The thrift stores... Be patient.. one day the mantel will be there for you. Thank you for another lovely video. 🥰
I just love you & Charlie! Your videos are just beautiful and I love going through each season with the two of you! Pure 🪄 magic✨💫✨✨💫✨Love from the RI coast 🌊🤎🧜♀️🍂🌼🍁🍄🟫🐚🌺
HAPPY FALL FRIDAY IN OCTOBER Kate and Charlie baby Sweetheart. Kate your hair is beautiful. Oh Charlie baby Sweetheart.. How precious are those gifts your mom sent to you and Charlie, so very thoughtful. Charlie knows his Gram sent those to him. Enjoy your weekend. STTB 2XS🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲
Another glorious video, Kate! Your photography is amazing...the shot of you walking through those orange trees with your dress matching...beautiful! Charlie is so cute in his new duds!❤ Carole from Tennessee
When you dry your Marigolds ...Save the seeds for planting next year. I deadhead them and save the seeds in a jar. I haven't bought seeds in many years
What a beautiful autumn colors! I just left the Niagara region after 3 months visiting my mom, and now back in LA where we won’t see the fall colors for a while but not as beautiful as it is in the east coast! Thank you for sharing another enjoyable video!
