How about this porch with a view of the beach? I love the hanging lights and the green sofa I love love love this look~ Ahh bouganvillias (I don’t know how to spell it) Beautiful pink flowering bushes
More hanging lights, colorful chairs and fabrics. Just makes you want to be there having lunch!
Love the lampshade and the colored glass cupboard doors.
Wish I was there right now!Love the distressed table, the chandelier, all white cupboards, the chair…everything!
Don’t you love the colors and the exposed walls with the wood slats going horizontal?
I can almost smell the ocean just looking at this picture.
How about a little pink beach house?
Wouldn’t this yard be fun for an Easter Egg hunt?

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!
These are such springy lovely photos! I want to live in these!
Such gorgeous pictures!! Especially love the beach pic and the white kitchen! :)
Followed your link from Susan’s porch.
Enjoyed all your creative and inspirational posts, the bougainvilleas are beautiful and perfect for the beachy theme.
These pictures are great! I want to go there....now! :)
These pictures are great! I love old looking things. It always makes me think of what they looked like when they were new and who owned them. Especially old houses. What was life like there? What were the people like, did they love the item or house as much as I do now? I would love, LOVE to own a older home with a ton of character, but that looks nice! If only I could sell my house in this market it might actually be possible with the lower cost of homes! Oh well. I can dream and look!! Thanks for shareing the beach!!
