In honor of Dr. Suess birthday tomorrow I am re-posting this Dr. Suess wreath that I made for a Youth Conference with the theme “Oh the Places You Will Stand”.
I made this
wreath using “The cat in the hat” and “
Hop on Pop” Dr. Suess books. We used the wreath on our snack table as the centerpiece. I saw this wreath
here and decided to whip one up. It was pretty easy.
STEP 1- I cut each page into a 6″ square and rolled them into little comes with a little tail sticking out of the top.
STEP 2- I took a paper plate and cut out the center circle and glued each cone onto it.
STEP 3- Then to cover up the center hole I cut a circle out of one of the books with the Cat in the Hat centered on it of course 🙂
This is the only pic I have of the treat table we set up…it looked so much cuter in person! My friend made the banners in the background soo cute! We filled glass jars with all kinds of candy, popcorn and pretzels.
Here is the gym all decked out…my friends husband did the lights, the balloon drop, and made the wooden signage!

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!
