Dear Colette, I came across your channel a few weeeks ago and am enjoying it so much. You are an inspiration to me as a 52 (53 next week) year old, single woman. I am in my 3rd summer of my own home on a small lot in the city. When I bought it, my vision was/is to create my own little cottage haven, inside and out. It's a fixer-upper that needed to be loved again. I wish I was further along but I'm loving the process of being creative while bringing it new life. The space I have keeps me more than busy. I don't know how you do it on 3 acres. Like I said, you lift my heart and remind me I'm strong and capable. Blessings to you and to a quick, uncomplicated healing! ~Kim, from Michigan
I am 67 and on my own single and find these videos inspirational...I now live in Scotland since 2018....my home town Birmingham England...grew up there in Seventies...my family past ...Our neighbours in my growing up years from 8 years old in Birmingham ...our neighbours were Irish....could not have wished for a better childhood in Birmingham England in the Seventies... Magical...miss such times❤❤
Yes, indeed, gratitude for what we have..and don't have.
Love your stove surround!
So happy your dental issues are dealt with.
Take good care, Collette... blessings
Collette I feel sorry for people now a days looking at their phones all the time missing out on nature etc your kitchen looks great god bless from Gary on the sunny Isle of wight
Hi from Virginia, USA! WOW! The tiles look absolutely fabulous! They blend in perfectly...and are a continuation of the artistry and magic of your cottage! Hope you heal from the dentist and take time to rest today.
You know Colette, I don't have a TV or even electricity, just this old mobile phone with a limited access to internet, still what's happening in Ga za makes me cry every day, I just can't help it. What unfair world we are living in! Bless you for being a real human with a tender and true heart.❤❤
Hi Colette, I think the blue patterned tiles look wonderful . You are very creative! Blessings to you and dear little Patsy ❤❤
It is a wondrous feeling when I feel all alone to hear another echo my thoughts. I feel much better knowing I am not alone at all
Well the new stove and tiles are a triumph. Your cottage seems such a homely place. All your doing of course. You've done a smashing job with the kitchen. When I saw you up on the counters painting .... there's a one who hates being told no
Nice seeing you work your magic with the tiles again. It's like welcoming the new stove to the cottage. It looks as if it has always belonged there. Your kitchen project is so homey and comfortable. Sorry about the trip to the dentist. I feel the same about that sort of thing. I know better, but I just can't help it. Looks like you have good meds. Wishing you a speedy recovery. 🙋♀️
Your kitchen looks wonderful!!!! So cozy and welcoming!😊❤😊
Good old salt in water water mouth wash helps healing ❤, love how beautiful the kitchen looks, well done 👍
What a transformation in the kitchen. The new stove is awesome and the colors and finish tile work are so perfect. Love it.
Dear Collette, I used comfrey leaf mashed with honey and vitamin E as a poultice on my gums when I had teeth extracted long ago. They healed super fast and well. When I went back to have stitches out my dentist asked… “you have 3 weeks of healing done in one week…what have you been doing?” I confessed and he told me to keep doing what I was doing because it was working! Beautiful job on your stove surround! Yes, it IS artistic!!! ❤
@@greenspiritarts That's wonderful- is the honey Manuka, or maybe local to your area? Organic? Is Comfrey have another name, can I use a Comfrey tea bag?
@@Good-DaySunshine It was regular, local honey from a local beekeeper and the area did not have pesticide crops, so whilst not labeled “organic”, it was good quality. FRESH comfrey leaves are best. The juices of the fresh plant contain a lot of healing properties. I just mashed the leaves with honey in a mortar and pestle to make the poultice with the Vit E added at the end. Manuka honey would be amazing, but I did not know about it back in the day. Dollops of the mashed leaves, honey and Vit E were rolled into gauze wrappers and then placed over the extraction points in the gums. Held in place 15-20 minutes. Discarded. No rinsing right away. Repeated 3x per day.
Collette, I am beyond impressed how you sorted out the tile situation. It’s like a beautiful quilt. What a resourceful woman you are. I hope your mouth heals quickly as I know how you feel about now. But you are right, the worst is over. Your place will be a haven for years to come, and it makes my heart happy knowing it’s there, so I can’t imagine how it makes you, its creator, feel. Rock on you fabulous woman. Hugs from America. Judy
Collette, my apologies but I must point out a serious problem you have created for yourself. Now, when sitting at your kitchen table enjoying your cuppa, meal. etc., do you gaze out your window at the beautiful garden or at your beautiful stove and tile art. ha! 😉 Enjoy both♥️♥️!
I love the tiles over the stove Colette, you are so creative, the kitchen looks wonderful. You poor thing, having to get teeth extracted is no fun, hope you feel back to yourself soon xx
We had our first Dragons breath of the season this morning. It was beautiful. Your kitchen is so cheerful.
I love the stove backsplash.. it has a kimono textile look to it..lovely
Lovely work....well done.I hate the dentists!
Absolutely beautiful collette❤🎉
Your tile art looks phantastic, much nicer than all the same tiles would have 🎉 hope you feeling better soon, 🙋♀️
The tiles look wonderful. I just love how it has turned out. Great job, Colette! The garden and the light are so beautiful and peaceful. You live in a magical place. Thank you for sharing your world with us. Take it easy today. Let your mouth heal. Blessings to you. Take care. ❤
LOVE the tiles!! That’s a great sale on the tiles, the stove itself is gorgeous I’d love one of those in my little cottage 😊
The tiles look great, I understand about the Dentist, I don't go until I'm desperate and then it's never as bad as I thought except on my pocket.
That's it..... we all have to count our blessings....
Wow your kitchen is so beautiful and cozy. ❤ I love it dear Colette.😊
Good morning Colette from Tucson, Arizona (Sonoran Desert). I enjoyed your visit today. I’ve been following you for years and have gained much from your insights and knowledge about nature and how to live within our means. Your tile work is beautiful, love the colors and textures.
Sending positive healing energy and hugs.🌵🥰🥦🍉🍋🍎🐾
New stove looks great Colette. Well done! Great video as always.
Your kitchen is looking mighty beautiful and cozy. Stove is lovely. I turned 63 this year and feel I don’t need so much stuff. I love feeling cozy in my home. Of course Colette wish I had your land . Warm eater and salt for your mouth. ❤
Get well soon Colette..The tiles look FANTASTIC, Colette at her best with her own imagination. BEAUTIFUL Colours ❤Kerry Australia
❤ sending hugs... thank you for sharing your beautiful cottage and garden... grateful I discovered your videos and posts
Beautiful Colette. Just lovely. I am sorry for your pain and pray that you are much better very soon. Love the peacefulness of your home and gardens. You are a wonderful keeper.
I absolutely love all your creations, Colette! Blessings to you and your precious Patsy. ❤
OMG! That tile is fantastic.
Love the tiling around the stove! Yes, gratitude for the many blessings and prayers for those who struggle!!
Thinking of you and hoping you are feeling better each day. Take care
Wow that's going to look wonderful love the whole kitchen your magic ❤
I wish you could have hired someone to do the tile work, but life happens. You do have an artistic flair. Thank goodness you know how to do it and are so very creative. Terriers must always be on a leash. I easily find things to be grateful for. I'm very fortunate in my life. Don't get me wrong, I've had tragedy and hard times, but at 65, I'm very comfortable and blessed with loving family and friends. Our natural world is a constant source of pleasure. Blessed be.
Aww Colette you're such a breath of fresh air in a terrible world. Your tiles look amazing well done.
So glad you have got your teeth done I am afraid I might need to do the same soon.
Blessings to you and little Patsy xxx
It turned out gorgeous....very funky ☘️
I love the artistic tile work you did behind your little stove. Its beautiful!
Feel better soon and blessings to Patsy🐾♥
Hi Collette, I have been following your kitchen journey with great interest, congrats on the end result, it's gorgeous! Like you, I live alone with lots of exciting challenges in house and garden, hard work, but so rewarding when it all comes together! Blessed Be.🍀
Collette. I must say the tile looks amazing - great job - I know the feeling of wanting to have it done for you, yet once it's finished I feel happy and proud of myself for a job well done 👏as you should too - as old as we are we are blessed, even though hard at times, that we can stll accomplish our projects! ❤ 🎉 from Andrea USA 😊
You DARE say artistic..it looks wonderful.Well done.Happy to hear that you have tooth relief .We do have much to be grateful for and need to count our blessings one by one.
The stove wall Tiling is SMASHING, Colette! 🤩 VERY Artistic and the perfect carryover and compliment to the other tiling you’ve done throughout. So glad the extractions are behind you. Steeped Clove tea swished in your mouth will relieve the pain quite a bit. Good for your gut too. Be sure to restore your gut flora - post antibiotics - either by eating yogurt or taking a probiotic supplement. Gratitude is THE Winning Attitude 😊. -V
PS You can also just pop a clove bud in your mouth and let it rest between your inner cheek and gums - one on each side, if necessary. 😋😋
Gargle salt and hot water a few times a day speeds up the healing
Hi Colette i love the way you have done the tiles and in the garden is stunning Love to you and Patsy xxx
Oh my, the star tiles are lovely.
You have created a gorgeous, unique and perfect wall.
Hope you mend quickly. 💐
Many Happy Blessings ⭐💖🫖
So sorry to hear you had dental issues. Wishing you a speedy recovery. Colette, you did a lovely job with the tiles. You are so creative. Always do what pleases you in your own home. Enjoy the changing of the season. Nature is so very amazing and healing. Take care and be well. 💖
Oh, my goodness ups and down for sure! Good to have your teeth sorted out. I bet that dental issue was dragging you down a bit without your even really realizing it. You will probably be back up to top energy level once your mouth heals. I love the tile surround that you have come up with over the stove. The colors fit in so well with the stove color. Take care now and give yourself a good rest--------you've been very busy lately and need some relaxing time to counteract that.
Your kitchen looks so cozy and inviting ❤
I must agree, it is very artistic and it turned out beautifully! Hope you start to feel well dear friend. Blessings.
You managed to make a lovely pattern on a minimal budget. Kudos. You are very observant about your surroundings. That allows you to appreciate all of the many beautiful gifts bestowed on all of us. I sure hope that you don't wind up like me with dentures. They are no real substitute for your own teeth. I did take care of my teeth, but they insisted on going bad. Blessings to you too.
I had an extraction a few weeks ago after I had a bad tooth infection. I was relieved to have it taken out. It's taken a few weeks for the gum to properly heal but it's a lot better now. Good luck with your recovery.
Tooth extractions,ugh! I had a canine tooth extracted in late July to the tune of $1860.00 US dollars. And the thing that hurt the most: my dental insurance only covered $67.00 of the cost. Boo!
Oh, Colette! I thought you were planning to have plain tiles like the ones you originally had, but I LOVE the way you did these! Fantastic, creative, artistic choice! Absolutely brilliant ❤
Love it the colors everything gorgeous
Once again, you've made something functional into a lovely art project. It's such a happy thing to have something your eye can dance over. After all, Mother's Earth is showing you that it's better to live with raucous beauty! Why should we have dreary homes?❤❤❤
And thank you, by the way to you and your sweet post office, my books arrived in Virginia Beach just 6 days after mailing! I will start on the Goddess Rising one with my coffee this morning!
Your kitchen looks amazing!!
Your tiles look lovely they remind me of a quilt my Grand made.
Your tile is beautiful! I think what you came up with is better than if you had gotten all of the same tiles. Love that blue. Love your yellow walls, too. Love that you are sharing your pictures and thoughts at the end of your videos. Thank you for continuing to share your journey with us. I have committed myself to living a creative life, after too many years of being stifled. You are one of my inspirations. ❤❤
Thank you for your lovely video the kichen is look amazing x
Good morning. It is a crisp 50-degree f/10-degree c this morning. I think your kitchen is cozy and inviting. You have done an amazing job. I have managed to accomplish a few tasks this week. I also had a few errands that interfered with finishing everything. I hope to complete most of the outdoor clean-up by the end of next week. I need to give myself "grace" in working in the garden. 😊 I enjoy doing tasks alone. However, I am realistic in my abilities and time. Have an absolutely beautiful week/weekend ahead. Blessings
Get well soon Colette. Love and light from the U.S.❤️🌞
What a great outcome on the wall! Wishing you a speedy recovery.
Looks fantastic, much better than if you'd brought in a tiler as like the rest of your home it shows your style. Feel better ❤
Grateful to have found your channel. I am very inspired by you and all that you do! The kitchen tiles look amazing and artistic and fit very well with the other colors and the floor! Lots of love and hugs from Canada. Dental work is also my least fav. Get well soon ❤
Well done! The tile is beautiful, the blue paint sets it off perfectly, and the whole kitchen looks fabulous! What a cozy, warm space you have created. It will be divine to spend time in that sunny kitchen on gray, wintry days. ❤
Your tiling job looks great!
Hope you feel better soon❤
the stove and wall behind it look so homey and unique. I really like what you did. Take it easy with yourself. I've started back with my turmeric orange juice shots every morning. I'm not tooting my horn but I haven't had so much as a cold in years. Never had covid and I'm out and about and have been around people who have colds, flu etc. I'm a believer in strong immune systems. Stay well and enjoy the beautiful light.
Hope you are feeling better soon Colette love the photo of patsy in her basket xx
Kitchen is lovely ..love the blue and yellow!
I love the colors! A sunny kitchen is always preferred, I think! ❤🎉
Blessings and healing to you, Dear Colette. You've really been through it of late. Thinking of you and little Patsy and sending you my best. Many thanks for all that you do.💞💞
Love love love the tiles x
Your title reminds me of how I used to joke about Ye Olde English Towne names, I made up one called, North South Eastern Upson Downes.
The tile is perfect! I love your design sense.
It has a north east west star feel and the south being the heat of the stove! Xx lovely😊
Be Well dear One !! You are a lovely inspiration ! Love to you!!
Beautiful! Very well done, Colette!
You’re a true artist…interior and outdoors as well.❤
We had Jack Russells in the past and the little buggers do love to chase 😆 Sadly, not everyone is as thoughtful as you are regarding the sheep, so thanks for putting that out there. I hope your mouth has healed well and not too sore. x
I LOVE the tiles!! It all looks smashing!!😍
That's a lovely job with those tiles Collette!
Tile job looks lovely, a beautiful reflection of you. If it was my kitchen, I would be painting the metal sheet at the back of the stove a colour to blend with the tiles. Of course if it had been my work, it would not have been nearly as creative.
Beautiful photos, in my minds eye I transport myself to your garden 🪴🍁🦋👍
Good luck with the dentist. Glad it went well. My poor hubby had all his back teeth out Monday ready to have his front out and dentures. All his siblings lost their teeth by 21 due to genetics. He has held on to his until now 69. But it was like living in a crime scene with the blobs of blood everywhere lol. I have to say you are a breathe of sun shiny fresh air. My day started really gloomy my fault been watching the news then I saw your video and I am happy again. ❤
Love the tiles, and your creative solution! Hope you’re feeling better soon!
jove the way you decorate according to your tastes, it always looks wonderful!
People who ask why you have PATSY on a lead.. Don't own a Jack Russell in open country side,,,,,, 🐶they are known bolters,... My sisters little one Millie,,, is on her three acres still not enough to stop her running off.. Anyway COLLETTE that is a grand job you have done with the tiling.. Looks soooo good...

Absolutely LOVE the tiling around the cooker ... wish I was as creative.
Your kitchen has turned out just lovely! All your hard work has paid off.
Oh Colette, you sounded like you've been through it there!
Your graceful attitude shines through though, here's wishing you a speedy recovery. The stove and the tiling looks fabulous, I love the creative solution you came up with it looks fantastic. 😊❤
Sorry to hear about your needing dental treatment Colette, I know how debilitating tooth trouble can be and I hope by now you’re well on the mend.
I’ve just caught up watching this video over lunch … a bowl of your yummy potato and chickpea curry 😋 I found it in the freezer this morning, unlabelled, not a clue what it was 🤦🏼♀️A tasty surprise indeed!
Your kitchen looks amazing. So pretty and homely, and winging it clearly works! What a brilliant job. You never fail to inspire and uplift me, and I’m very grateful to you for this wonderful channel. Thank you, and blessings to you, Colette and Patsy 🙏💚
My goodness I LOVE your tiling Collette! I LOVE all of your tiling! The kitchen renovation is absolutely beautiful.
Your kitchen is wonderful and so are you. Take care
Kitchen looks so nice!
You are so strong. Your heart is pure. I love what you’ve done with the tile. Your kitchen is very cozy and relaxing colors. I enjoy your walk abouts with Patsy. Blessings to you with warm healing thoughts for your mouth. Be sure to rest.
