Memorial Day and 4th of July Decorations

How I love Memorial Day and the 4th of July!!
I feel so blessed and so grateful to be an American!
The Land that I love! Thank you to all those who have fought and are still fighting for our freedom.I found lots of fun things for the 4th of July to share with all of you to give you ideas of how to show your spirit!
This fun apron is from Pier One Imports
Set the table in red white and blue…
I would love this set up…. overlooking the ocean or a lake!!

Or how about pulling out all the stops and dressing your whole house!! I love love love this!

Old Glory above the fireplace.

Look at all the cute festive pillows! They would look so cute on my red sofa wouldn’t they?!
I love how they elevated the food and added small flags to make it even more festive.

How cute are these!! I believe it shows how to make them..over at country living website under crafts!
Red white and blue!
All these photos I found on BHG, Country living, Country Home and Pier one websites.
Happy 4th!

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!
