Just a Girl

You must go check out Just a Girl blog! This was her Deal of the Decade post and was it ever a deal! She got this “sucker” for $27.00 (without the cushions) HELLO!! Truly this is one lucky girl. Her posts are so funny to read and there is some delicious photos of dreamy rooms on her blog as well as really cute and fun photos of the amazing things she has done in her own home. She is just like us….wants the beautiful expensive stuff but can’t afford it so she figures out way to re-create things very inexpensively. Ohhh and check out her “closet chaos” post and see the after photos…She has really inspired me to get organizing and cleaning up my own closet. We are excited to keep checking out her blog.

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!

  • Oh my gosh!! I just realized I never thanked you for the post. I promise, I'm not that rude--but I am known to be that flaky!!! When I got on here, I was like, "Oh my gosh--they like that bed too!" Then I realized the content. Thanks, again!
