Linky Party- Happy 4th of July

Welcome to another week of Centerpiece Wednesday Linky Party- Happy 4th of July!

I love red white and blue and I was very inspired by all your Tablescape ideas that reflect this. Plus I am a huge fan of chocolate chip cookies and this recipe of making them in a skillet really caught my eye. Thank you everyone for linking up each week and sharing all your creative ideas with us!

Centerpiece Wednesday Linky Party - Karins Kottage

Centerpiece Wednesday Linky Party Highlights

I love using denim in my Tablescapes like the ones I did here but I never thought to use denim to make a bouquet of flowers like Pillar Box Blue did below. It looks amazing and so perfect for the 4th of July too! I need to start cutting up some old jeans and try this out!

Welcome to my Linky party Centerpiece Wednesday here on Karins Kottage

Star place setting idea

Calypso in the Country nailed this tablescape with the darling checked star plates. They are so cute! I love how she layered the blue and white striped napkin on top of the red one underneath the white plate. Really really cute and festive!

Centerpiece Wednesday Linky party where bloggers share ideas.

Patriotic centerpiece

If this tablescape done by Whispers of the heart doesn’t say patriotic I don’t know what does! Don’t you love her stacked centerpiece with all the American flags! One of my favorite 4th of July place settings that I did with flags is here

Chocolate Chip Skillet Cookie

What is an America celebration without chocolate chip cookies? Walking on Sunshine Recipes has this fabulous skillet chocolate chip cookie recipes that I can’t wait to make! I just barely bought some mini cast iron skillets so I can make this delicious dessert!

Happy 4th of July Decor Ideas

Debees Buzz post is loaded with so many fun patriotic decoration ideas! It was hard to pick just one thing of hers to share. I thought this was a clever way to use a fan of flags meant to be used on a mailbox but she used it by attaching to a wire basket with glass bottles.

Simple Patriotic tray vignette

Thistle Key lane does a Pinterest challenge to try and recreate a look seen on Pinterest. By using things she already has in her home to create a similar look. I think she really captured the look from Liz Marie Blog. This simple patriotic tray vignette is fabulous!
