I am sure you all know someone that you admire how they can make so many things look easy.
Maybe even effortless.
I believe that when we see someone in their element that is when we see an effortlessness.
It doesn’t mean they haven’t practiced or worked hard.
They have most likely taken their natural interests, read, practiced and grown their innate interests and gifts.
When I was putting together the other hosts for Creatively Made Home (CMH) I wanted women that were using their gifts to bless their families and others.
I wanted women with distinct styles.
Kimberly Taylor is one of the five hosts of CMH and I am so excited today to give you the first peek into what she will be sharing with all of you!
(Can I just add that I found myself smiling throughout all of Kim’s videos. She is that adorable and real. It doesn’t hurt that she is one of my closest friends).
Kimberly lives on a few acres outside of Seattle.
She has chickens, gardens, berry bushes, a horse, sheep and she makes it all look dreamy!
I admire so much of what she does and how she does it.
I love how much she uses her land and how she is learning to use this land to it’s full potential more and more.
It was an amazing reminder to me that just because I am not on acreage doesn’t mean that my land is not full of self sustaining potential.
Because of just knowing her, being at her home and even watching the videos that you will get to see….I have big plans for my smaller yard!
Here is a peek at what Kim so beautifully brings to the course (this is just a peek though)…..
Kim will talk about:
*Her personal journey with her home and family
*Her design influences
*How she found her own style and how she began incorporating it
*Share favorite recipes and photos of her home
*Have a live, online discussion with members of the course to ask whatever they wish about her style, home, passions.
*Share 10 project videos in different areas that are true to how she incorporates her creativity and passions in everyday living.
A peek into her project videos…
Kim will have three different videos about harvesting from her land and how to enjoy it all winter long.
She will also talk about how to harvest seeds from your favorite plants and how to add to your garden naturally and cost effectively.
She will talk about food, herbs and flowers.
She will have videos on raising chickens and the different chickens they have added to the farm and the eggs they produce.
This is something I was dying to learn more about!
Kim will share some of her recipe staples and extras like ricotta cheese and yogurt.
She will also be sharing about a few of the special things they create on the farm just for guests to take home with them.
I loved these videos and know it will get your creativity going for yourself and your family.
Keep in mind that this is just a little peek. There is so much more that Kim will be sharing!
All of Kim’s projects were really about using what is around you, simplifying your life and having a home that is always open to friends and family (and even the unexpected stranger).
You will love, love, love the lifestyle that Kim brings to the course!
I chose four women to join me in this five week, online course that have very different gifts so there is something for everyone and bits of knowledge for everyone…..but there is a common thread of hospitality.
The website is new and the community aspect will be even better than before (and our community is what keeps people coming back)!
*****
A few words about the course…
I wanted to create a course that celebrated what really matters in your home…..you and your family.
I also wanted to celebrate making life beautiful in the everyday.
I know that so many want to make their homes beautiful but feel overwhelmed and don’t know where to start….so they do nothing.
I believe that everyone should be surrounded by beauty in their homes and that has nothing to do with how much you spend.
I think sometimes we can get lost and distracted with everything that comes at us each day.
Sometimes things can look so perfect and we as women may feel inadequate.
It is time to exhale and delight in your home.
It is time to open your doors because of what is inside of you…not what is inside your home.
Our desire is that this five week online course will change how you see yourself, your home and your family.

We are so giddy to get started.
Score! So happy I signed up. I can’t wait to hear Kim’s advice! That lady leads my ideal life. 🙂 xo-k
I adore you miss Katie!!!
Why do you think I had to have her in the course??? 🙂
I just signed up! I’m looking forward to hearing from all of these creative women! And hoping I’ll gain some inspiration on how to make our rental flat here in Paris more homey!! Can’t wait!
Welcome and we all hope you get lots of inspiration from the course!
For once, I really do wish time would fly! For all the amazingness about Kim, my favorite is that she keeps it real at the same time. Is it the 22nd yet???
I hope it is not the 22nd yet because I still have lots of work to do:-) So excited that you are excited too!! Only three more weeks.
I’m all signed up, and am going to invite an out of state friend to take the course with me, as a way of being “together” even though we live hours away. And Jeanne…thank you for spelling sneak PEEK properly. That just gets my week off to a happy start. I am such a word-girl, and seeing one more “sneak peak” might have hurt me more than it should. 🙂
PS. (oh lord. I can’t everrr be brief) your ecourse timing is preciously providential. My life has been in majestic transition…epic…for a long time. The nest has emptied in only the last MONTH! My whole *heart* wants to give my home some love, and chart a course for the next season of life. I am likely going to be your most enthusiastic student. I do have a loooong history of hospitality and home loving, but my soul so needs fresh direction. YEAY! See you soon…
I can’t wait to have you in the class and to hear what changes you make!
i am getting excited, jeanne. good, good stuff!! love all the pictures from kimberly’s life in the northwest, too!!
I knew you would really love all of Kim’s videos!
The sneak peek has got me so excited about this course! I cannot wait to see what these talented women have to share with us:) My kiddos are in college and my husband is a very patient man to put up with my white bare walls. I told him to get ready because this online course is going to add some life to this home. I cannot wait to get started!! Thank you:)
I hope you share photos with us:-)
I’m getting excited too! Even though I’m one of the hosts in the course I just know I will take away so much inspiration too. Kim is always a HUGE source of inspiration for me.
The feeling is quite mutual my friend. I am so excited to be working with you and the other incredibly inspiring girls!
I can’t wait! I just picked up the keys to my NEW HOUSE!!!!!!! I’ll actually be en route on the day class opens so while I’d love to be there the second the course is available (Thanks Sara Duckett), I’ll catch up in the next couple of days. New inspiration—- new digs—– new joy!!!
Congratulations on your new home!
I am so excited for Oct. 22nd! This is going to be fantastic. I am especially excited about Kim’s videos about harvesting her land and how to enjoy it all winter long – as I live in the Seattle area too – so we have the same weather limitations. Fun!
So glad! You will love Kim’s videos and the best part is that if she doesn’t cover something you were interested in….you will have the opportunity to ask her questions during her live question and answer time on the website!
