Summer Tales: thrifting, decorating, and horse therapy (story 79)

I visited an AMAZING thrift store with my friend and found so many treasures for the cottage! We also visited her beautiful horse, which was such a wonderful therapy for me. If I had to pick which therapy was more effective (horse vs. thrifting), I'd have to say it's a tie : )
Summer is in full swing here in the Hudson Valley. My little cottage garden is coming to life and I've been soaking in every second of our longer days.
Thank you for being here! 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

I’m feeling so grateful to you for sharing your life with us! Your posts bring me such joy and calm to my life. I live very far away and am much older, but I find myself smiling from the moment I turn on the channel till the end. Your honesty and vulnerability is helping me to understand my own life and be soooo grateful for nature and animals and tiny cottages and everything that is peaceful and good in life. You remind me of happiness and joy and looking for the good, even through the struggles. We are here to learn and I’m just glad I happened to find you to go along with me for the ride. ❤😊

[@littlebohocottage]

Thank you for such lovely words. It means so much to me. It's hard to focus on joys sometimes ... so making these videos helps me to do that. And then the fact that it helps anyone else to do the same makes me just so so happy : ) ❤❤❤

[@MicheleBlumberg-u6n]

I totally agree with every word of this! every posting is so beautiful.

I just can't wait for your videos to come out. I am 63 yrs.old and live in South Carolina. I ABSOLUTELY Love your little Boho Cottage. You My Dear are a Beautiful Soul and Charlie is a Darling. I have a little Applehead Chihuahua, 19 yrs old ! She's my world. Anyway keep doing what you do. Sending Love and Hugs to you and Charlie ❤😊❤

[@sarahprice1375]

Likewise! I'm 63 and have 4 rescued Chihuahuas and just love Kates posts

[@debbiekennedy6030]

Ya'll can include me. I have my little old lady, chihuahua/poodle/terrier mix, and two one year old chihuahua siblings that were both born without front legs. My other dogs are a black lab, and a rat terrier mix. I also rescue, so right now I have 2 rescues that will be adopted out to their furever homes. All my dogs are named after characters from "The Wizard of Oz." I agree, these videos are wonderful! I am stressed lately, so coming to this channel can completely relax me.

[@dixiedarr700]

I cannot stand summer. The heat makes me miserable. I stay inside and pray for an early fall.

[@deboramccallum3987]

Especially this heat dome scenario it's miserable. I'd rather have the cold, but summer nights are so balmy

[@angelabay-jespersen6205]

I totally agree! I live in Brisbane, Australia and it is SO SO hot here in summer and incredibly humid as well which always makes the best feel hotter some how. In the last week of winter we had a heat wave and it got to 96.8°… in winter! Watching Kate and her gorgeous little boho cottage go through 4 proper seasons brings me so much joy (especially all the flowers in spring) and I wish so much I could live somewhere like that, in a little cottage on the edge of a woods with nature all around. But, watching Kate’s videos always reminds me to be grateful for what I do have and to try and focus on the positives like she does. I am very grateful to Kate and her @littlebohocottage channel. I too have anxiety (and chronic pain from back issues) and seeing Kate’s courage in looking for and finding all the good things is so inspiring. I’m going to see if I can somehow budget to join her patreon because, if all the channels I follow, Kate brings me THE most joy and I believe she really truly deserves all the support e can give her!

[@jaynewarriner7214]

I grew up with horses, and they just sense pain in humans. And another interesting fact is you can put a child near most horses and they will calm down and be gentle around them.. They’re an amazing fascinating part of our creation. When I see a horse freely gallop across the field, I can’t help but think majestic.

[@KimberlieOtt]

Lovely video, that light you captured around you (orange, gold) stunning!!! The music you chose at the rock outcroppings was so beautiful too, so glad to know there are others that can't do the heat well too, I love the cooler days!!! May you be well, physically and mentally and emotionally. Thank you again for sharing these peaceful moments with all of us!!! P.S. Those flowy dresses!!! Sigh!!!

[@maureenabray7660]

Idea: Make a pullover full long slip from a found percale white sheet and you can even add some fancy hem trim sourced from a lace tablecloth to peek out below the over skirt. Wrap around skirts are easier to make and fit forgiving. I've only experienced Chinese acupressure. I would love to find a sliding scale charging practice near me. Not much around here. Enjoyed your wonderful pup, the sunrises, rain storm whirling clouds and sunsets.

[@littlebohocottage]

What a great idea! Thank you!!!! And I hope you find a spot with a sliding scale. I was so grateful to find her so that's why I wanted to spread the word for anyone in this area. Have a lovely weekend!❤❤❤

[@theMermaidRhonda]

I'm also loving the long days of summer. I was driving home last Friday night from the full moon women's circle I go to and it was still light at nearly 10pm! I also love getting up early during the summer and when it's already light out at 7am, it's so much easier. Yesterday my husband and I went down to Williamstown, KY for the memorial for my aunt and uncle. They were interred together (their ashes) at the Kentucky Veterans Cemetery. She passed in Dec, he joined her earlier this month. She was 90, he was 94. It was a beautiful morning and it was nice to see so much of my family. It's been so hot for the past few weeks, but the weather was perfect yesterday. My aunt would have loved this channel..she was very much a boho lady. Probably why she was my favorite aunt..:)

[@terryshaw3493]

Here in southwest Florida, the summer is very hot and humid, but I love the longer days of sunshine. The longer I have lived here, th more I become accustomed to the extreme heat. I still do my 5 mile walks along the water even in the heat - my happy time and place! and keeps me healthy. I love watching your videos in New York - so beautiful. I really enjoyed your Goodwill shopping trip. Your time with the horses was my favorite. So amazing - they are beautiful creatures from God. A wonderful video!

[@kathyhoward9182]

Your videos bring me such joy like there’s a peace and a calmness about them. I have been sewing for well over 50 years and have owned lots of sewing machines over the years some expensive some not. IMO for a beginner a basic machine is perfect. Some of my most fond memories and projects were made on a push pedal singer (no electric) lol it was a straight stitch and that was it, but truly that’s all you need. Just the basics. I hope you find a machine soon. You are going to love it!

[@liketanyanot]

For future reference, you can use a clothing steamer on things like pillows!

[@littlebohocottage]

Never thought of that! Thank you!!!!!

Love, love, love the footage you caught of the lightning bugs which we call fire flies. I too was watching them a few nights ago. They truly are magical.💕

My friend that’s a very serious quilter says that the Janome sewing machine you looked at is a good brand. You could ask to set it up in the store and run a few stitches before buying to be sure it’s working.

Thank you for another lovely video. It's been a bit hot here in England for a few days, but like where you and Charlie are, it cooled down today and was ideal. We need some rain, though, as my flower beds are looking a bit wilted! I'm definitely planning to get my bicycle out and enjoy the summer. It's great cycling down to the sea, where I can get some sketching done. Wishing you and Charlie a super weekend, good luck with the skirt and dresses, the material looks so pretty! 😊😊😊😊😊

I know that strip mall with the Food Pantry! I live in Hawaii but when I visit my sister who lives in Fort Montgomery, the pantry is where I go to load up on my food for my stay. I love that antique store and have been in it a couple of times, and last but not least, I know exactly where you are at that park the end of your video! I thought it was so awesome that you can actually see the city from that vantage point! Sending Aloha from the islands and thank you for taking me along on your journey today. That little Runner is adorable! Can't wait to see the dresses you're going to sew from the sheets!

It's always lovely to see a new video. The sheets will make such pretty dresses. We've had a Janome for about 10 years and sew regularly it's a great machine. I know you said you have a friend to help which is the best way to learn,I'd also recommend patterns by indie designers, explaining things step by step is a great help.xx

Look at your channel growing Kate! Deservedly so, my dear. I'm with you about Summer heat. I'm not a fan (punny 😂). I do love Summer evenings in Eastern WA state. Nighttime temps dive by 30-40° on a regular basis and most importantly there is relatively no humidity here. I can handle heat over high humidity which I find quite oppressive. 🥵 Thank goodness my cabin home is in shade much of the day. Trees make all the difference in the heat. I enjoyed tagging along in the thrift stores. I got a big chuckle from the clever mastectomy tee shirt! Charlie was especially adorable in the park. You two are quite a pair. I love your channel ❤

[@seeyouonthefly2024]

I think you are adorable and enjoy your content. It is your money, your stuff and your business. Why do you feel compelled to go to all of these stores and shop? Full price or half price doesn't matter. There is something missing that thrifting is fulfilling. Food, shopping, social media, plastic surgery, etc. Many of us (including myself) have something compulsion. I am now at a point where I do not want all the stuff.

My sister just returned from two weeks in Italy and she ate pasta and pizza for two weeks and felt amazing. Here, when she eats those foods, she suffers with bloating and other symptoms. And even stranger, her husband's beard, which had been turning gray, started getting darker while in Italy. Apparently the chlorine in our water system has that effect on our hair falling out faster or turning gray sooner. What are we doing in this country? It's so frustrating.

If that Janome sewing machine worked, Janome is a very good brand and expensive when new.

[@melkrist]

I agree about Janome being great machines. A used one is generally a great budget choice. I spotted two things on that machine that were of concern, one was completely broken. I've been sewing 35 years and I currently own more Janome machines than any other. I definitely would have passed on that machine though.

Awwe, no worries about the little fawn. That is actually normal deer behavior... The doe will leave the fawn (they have no odor to attract predators, unless humans touch them, then they will have human odor on them and the predators know human smell means food) and then the doe comes back at night/early morning to nurse the fawn. Until the fawn is large enough to keep up with mamma. And actually a fawn starts browsing almost immediately, as well. I'm sure the mamma was near! You did the right thing to observe from afar❤️💕

I have you as someone who reminds me, that my life is a special gift. I bought a tiny cabin in the woods in the California mountains, in November and I have been spending time whenever possible to fix it up😊 I refinish furniture which brings me such joy, taking something old and making it new. I treat myself to Goodwill shopping when I’m feeling down, and like you, I get rid of one thing for another. I appreciate you for all that you bring me everyday.

My daughter is HSP and when she was young she had these hours where she would just cry... She also had panic attacks. We went to this place with horses and when she was on their back she started to relax and after that she wasn't scared and relaxed... It was very special! ♥️

[@davinamcm6435]

What a beautiful video ❤🐴A horse's heart is 5 times bigger than a human's and has a correspondingly larger electromagnetic field. When the horse and human 'energy fields' interact they appear to effect each other's heart rate. Since horses have a very stable heart rhythm, humans frequently feel calmer when they are around these animals. It has been clinically documented that just being around horses changes human brainwave patterns. We calm down and become more centred and focused when we are with horses Horses are naturally empathetic. The members of the herd feel what is going on for the other members of the herd.

They are the BEST medicine for stress, anxiety, PTSD and other conditions. I’m blessed to own 3 (or be owned by 3) and I’m so, so grateful! 3: The band of chihuahuas: hilarious! ❤ 4. That thrift shop! Amazing! I wanted the boho purse so badly, the one with fringes!! 😂 5: Charlie: Just precious. What a cute little guy! 6: Food in the USA: You’re completely right. It is incredible how much junk is forced on us in this country. It is not nearly as bad in other countries. But… companies need their money, and that is more important than our health. Anyway… thank you for your videos. I truly enjoy them.

I used to have horses when I was a teenager and let me tell you once you have one you will realize that basically, horses are like puppies/dogs with hooves. Like dogs, they have their own personalities, but they are gentle giants. I do believe often times horses are misunderstood. They are the sweetest animals next to puppies and cats. Which I adore too.🐴🐎❤❤❤

FYI, when you can't wash a pillow, you can put in a dryer on high heat for a few minutes to kill any germs.
