Introducing The Style Sisters Magazine!!
No….Not really but If I did have my own magazine I would want it to look something like this…Fun bright colors, Easy how-to articles, Recipes, Party ideas, and of course Tablescapes for very season!!
Would you buy this magazine?
I found these raspberry plum colored placemats at target the other day in the clearance aisle for .89 cents!! How could I pass them up! I paired them with my favorite lime green napkin rings for eye popping deliciousness!
(Napkin ring Tutorial is at the bottom of the post)
My grandmas cut crystal goblets were just begging to be included on this table!
For the centerpiece…I emptied out a basket of play dishes that I keep for my grandkids and plopped in potted fresh herbs and lettuce. Ohh the mix of the dark basket with the green leaves is intoxicating for me right now as I wait for spring to come out in my yard!
I love the texture contrast between the elegant sparkling cut crystal and the dark woven basket.
Each plate is sitting atop of dollar store grapevine wreaths.
Tip: look for wreaths that are even or your plate will rock and roll on it.
You will notice that I mixed and matched the napkins…some are this awesome floral print and other are simply a solid lime green.
Ok now for the flower napkin ring tutorial….so easy!
Items needed:
Wire cutters
Green florist tape
Cute silk flowers
I found these at Michaels and they came as a cluster
Cut off each flower making sure you keep a leaf or two on the stem from the big cluster of flowers leaving 8″ or 9″ inch stem. You will want to pull off outer plastic green stem cover if it is thick…as it makes it easier to bend the wire.
Turn stem into a circle and wrap the stem at the end to secure.
Cover the wire in self stick florist tape.
Done!!
I’ll be taking orders for my Style Sisters magazine soon…. wink wink 🙂

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!
