I have been away visiting my family. It was so fun being with all of them again. The best part was of course my cute little granddaughter Ella. I just canât stop giving her millions of kisses and squeezesâŠ..It is always hard coming back home to my regular life of quietnessâŠI miss my family đ
Since I have been in alittle funk I decided I needed some colorful fun inspiration to motivate me for spring and summer so here is what I have found.
A beautiful colorful striped umbrella from Pottery Barn (I think)
I absolutely love these hurricane lamps and look at what they didâŠthey added fresh flowers to surround the candle. How simple and yet so beautiful. I am feeling like I am on vacation already! I found some white ones last year at Ikea for 10 bucks!! I canât wait to dress them up with some springtime flowers.
Well hello there gorgeous! Sheesh could it get any better than this⊠A beautiful lantern by the beach!
Look at these lanterns with sea shells around the candles. Just fabulous!
I love to lounge by the pool and wouldnât it be fun to do so on this brightly colored lounge chair!
Love these wide striped pillows. How about this backyard getaway? I think I will add some fabric to our backyard area to create an oasis!
I love these bright colored bags too!
Ahhh Spring is upon us and summer is right behind. Motherâs Day, Memorial Day, Graduation, Fathers Day, camping, 4th of July, August and my baby leaves to go to college. I will be an empty nesterâŠâŠâŠâŠ How can that be when I am only 29 years old. Ha Ha
What are you doing to welcome in spring and summer this year?
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!
