Trying something new on our blog

We have put a new thing on our blog called snap shots. It allows you to view certain links on our site without having to actually go to the internet. We aren’t sure if we want to keep it on our site. Let us know if you like it or if it bothers you. You can click on the top right corner of any of the windows when it pops up to stop it while you are viewing our blog if you prefer.

Also we will be sending out our first newsletter by April 1st so be watching for it in your inbox soon! For those of you who haven’t signed up yet….there is a link to sign up for it on the right hand side of this blog.

Feel free to comment on any of our stories or photos listed here on our blog or on any of our other blogs. http://www.beyondthetable.blogspot.com/ http://www.capturelife-karin.blogspot.com/ and our two newest blogs…..http://www.thechildrensnest.blogspot.com/ http://www.flydaddyo.blogspot.com/ (for world travelers)

Looking forward to tomorrow where we will bring you new fun and exciting things on all our blogs!!
Karin and Tiffany

Karins Kottage

Welcome to Karins Kottage! There is always something fun going on! You would think after becoming an empty nester couple that our nest would be very quiet and empty but our Kottage nest is usually more full than what we started out with! You might find me hosting a birthday party or graduation party and a baby shower on the same weekend or a big outdoor get together with 25 of our friends and family in the backyard or maybe I might be in the kitchen trying out a new recipe for my hubby and I to grill on the BBQ for a quiet night for the two of us. I am passionate about entertaining and setting a beautiful table! I may or may not have an addiction to cloth napkins and fun salad plates oh and goblets too! I think I will always have a home decorating DIY project in the works as long as my hubby is on board with me haha. We have painted A LOT in the 6 homes we have owned in the 35 years that we have been married as well as re-done multiple pieces of furniture, added wall and ceiling treatments, replaced lights, bathroom fixtures and even tiled floors! I have sewn what seems like a million window treatments for our home as well as for family, made slipcovers, and duvets and even a formal dress or two!
