My daughter Madeline and her cute family have just purchased their first home and have been painting, fixing, creating garden beds, painting….did I say painting???? Not only every room in the house but ugly ducking furniture too!! All while attending to her 3 tiny children 4 and under!! Yeah…she is amazing! Here is one of her projects- ugly duckling bookcases that were given to her by a sweet Aunt. Boring brown with no pizazz.
Madeline got busy and went to town painting these ugly duckling bookcases white! With the help of her Aunt they whipped them out in no time!
Here they are in the kids newly painted playroom all ready for for playtime! I can’t wait to see this room in person!! I love the color of the walls mixed with the white shelves and white trim…it just makes the wall color pop!
I will be updating you on all her before and afters as she continues this process of revamping the entire house top to bottom and inside and out!! It will be so fun to see what she does next!

Karins KottageWelcome 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!
