Just when you think to yourself "Does what I do really matter"... one of these amazing emails drops in your In Box and you are forever grateful.

This one arrived today, so I am going to share it with all my treasured friends. BTW, I finally went to the dr. today to get some medicine to kick this terrible flu to the curb. I expect to be well in the morning! lol



Dear Cathy,

Thank you... thank you so very much. My first look at your pink cottage and the items you sell have changed my life and home.

I had lived in a 70's ranch for 32 years (red shag carpet and dark colors). After seeing what could be possible, my fantastic handyman and I will be working together in the next week or so to begin building my dream cottage in my backyard. I've been collecting furnishings for the past months (already have 5 plastics totes full plus a box and a huge stack of pillows) and will have lumber within a week.

I've saved the pix of your cottage plus a large notebook of ideas for painting and decorating this "Big Girl" playhouse. I can hardly wait. Hopefully, I will chronicle the construction, decoration, and enjoyment of my fairy rose cottage through photos.

Thank you again for all of your inspiration.
