I love the Cottage in the Sun!! Sounds like what a love heart means to me!! It also makes me miss my best friend who lives in LA as hearts are her favourite things!! What a gorgeous post. Pruxxx
Well....my heart is smiling...as I listen to your Jack Johnson cocoon...and read about your beautiful hearts.
Thank you!
From one mermaid to another..
altho far from the sea..
she calls to me..
with her ebb and flo.
I feel her in each heart beat..
singing to me..
I love your post..
the words..
and the music..
speaking to me..
of the sea..
love the hearts..
warm sandy hugs..

I so love your posts! You really changed my day today! Thank you!
Oh this is a sweet giveaway. These little hearts are beautiful. My heart is full today. I had a "milestone" birthday yesterday, and my family just shared so much love with me. I know I'm blessed.
Blessings,
Marcia
Oh my I would love to win one of those white tin hearts. What a beautiful heart-touching post you've written here.
So many kind hearts floating through Blog Land. Giving of themselves, helping one another. Holding someone's hand a thousand miles away because their heart is heavy. A dear blog friend lost her husband unexpectedly last week. I would like to hug her, but then that is limited here, and tell her it will be all right. Not now. Not for a long time. But it will be all right.

These are so pretty. I'm amazed by the creativity of others. Blogland is the land of kind hearts. When my mother got sick and during 2 months that followed until her death, I was amazed and so touched by the messages, prayers and support that came from a community of people I had never met. I know that I will forever be grateful.
ahhhh my heart would be completely full if i won your heart. :)
these are beautiful, and i definitely think surrounding yourself with love is the way life should be.
Wow Julia
What a beautiful giveaway... gorgeous hearts from someone with one of the best!!
I haven't visited Cottage in the Sun before so I will be over to feast my eyes soon ...
have a lovely week dear heart.. xxx Julie
Thank you so much for visiting me the other day! Your blog is so lovely...can't believe I am just in time for your lovely giveaway. What makes my heart happy...my sweet girls..especially tonight around the dinner table...boy can they ever laugh and giggle. xoxoxo
Quite an inspiring post! Thanks for stopping by my blog:-). The flowers that are hanging off my deck are called scaevolas. They bloom nicely and love full sun, however, they need to be watered all the time. I hope to "see" you again. xo
I'm very much trying to follow my heart..., this would be a beautiful reminder..., because sometimes I do forget and think I need to obey some other rules..., how foolish.
Your heart and your words are enough for me, so I hope that someone else wins, but I had to drop in and say I heart you!
Cottage in the Sun is a gorgeous shop! Thanks for your visit to my new photo blog, and for leaving a comment. You are a Sweetheart! ♥
Beautiful giveaway and beautiful post on a beautiful blog. I am a kindred mermaid.
For you:
There's a lovely cottage by the seashore
Where the water lillys strew the shore
It was there I passed my happy childhood
With a loved one that's gone before...
I'm so glad to have discovered your beautiful blog, especially now that I see these hearts. If you have a chance to visit again, you might enjoy my post, 'Hearts Find Me Everywhere', about the natural heart shapes I find.
This is a lovely giveaway..so kind of you!

I love your blog! Like you, I am drawn to the sea. I don't care which sea it is...east, west, north or south. There is just something about the tang of the salt air, the whisper of the sand between your toes, and the lapping (or crashing) of the waves. Ahhh......
Jane (artfully graced)
PS Cute hearts!
What a wonderful post-you took me there! And your giveaway touches my heart (sorry, couldn't resist)Thanks for visiting me. It's nice to meet another WW newbie.

I would love to have one of these hearts to add to the collection of hearts in my home! In my kitchen I have a plastic plate with a heart drawn around the words I love you Mom! that my son made in grade school. In my hallway I have two heart shaped plaster molds of my son's and daughter's handprints; and a heart-shaped plaque with the words Home is Where the Heart is, that my son made in Cub Scouts. In my bathroom I have heart shaped stones we've found on family vacations. I believe the heart of a home is the love it contains and I don't think that's something you can ever have too much of.
Glad you're back!! Love the hearts! and your words!
Your hearts are lovely. Each so different. Just like each shell on the beach. My heart is lifted each time I read your posts, whether new or older, as my heart isn't able to be at the ocean, but my eyes can see it, thanks to you. Thank you for sharing your heart's love of the ocean with me, who is surrounded by land. Shannon :)
Julia, your hearts are beautiful, just like your heart. Your blog is so uplifting and inspiring. I look forward to visiting often. Never change, be true to your heart. Debbie
Ok, first I love the photos of the birds in the water, it looks like I am there with you, so real. You can see the wet of the waves. Second, ohgosh, those hearts are beautiful. I would love to win, but now I will have to go and see where they came from.
Bob sent me. I'm in love with your blog, and would love to have my name tossed in the hat too!
I'm adding your blog to my blogroll - looking forward to reading & seeing more!
Hugs,
Zuzu
Bob sent me too. He is so darn funny! ....and your hearts are simply sweet!
Feel sort of silly, missed this whole post earlier. Pretty hearts, and very sweet thoughts.... have a great weekend!

I'm a new visitor, saw your comment on someone else's blog and felt drawn to have a look. These are amazing hearts- love the pressed tin ones and weathered wood. I make fabric hearts, but these are something else entirely- so ethereal, vintage and full of patina. I share this poem, just written now...
Heart of mine beating wildly
why will you not be still?
There's more to be said
and more to be done,
more to be seen and
more to be given, until...
more hearts are stirring
more hearts are athrill
with all that is beautiful
and all that is good
amid the broken and ruins
of hope that is dashed...
count each petal as a rose unfolds
inhale its fragrance while it lasts
there's always tomorrow
and joy comes in the morning!

How did I miss this give away - oh my gosh- count me in - love these sweet treasures! These are more than beautiful - they are a reason to smile each day!

I love the white hearts with white ribbon. White is my fave when decorating and I adore hearts! My heart is torn at the moment. My kids (son and daughter-in-love) want me to live with them, and I'm not sure I want to give up a little home of my own. Time and prayer will direct me! ♥
