I should be in Capri Italy right now

I should be in Capri Italy right now! 🙁 But of course we all know why I am not. I am missing the gorgeous green aqua color water that surrounds the island. It is absolutely stunning there! The colors of the water inspired the things I chose to highlight for this weeks Centerpiece Wednesday Linky Party! I am very happy to share some fabulous ideas from these great bloggers! But first a couple of pictures of Capri from the last time were there.

I should be in Capri Italy right now. It is so gorgeous and I am missing being there at the moment.

Just look at the water! I seriously could not believe how beautiful it was there. I will be sharing more about our trip to Capri Italy soon!

Happy Wednesday everyone! Please take a minute and check out all the fun ideas from these fabulous creative bloggers! Stop by their blogs and say Hi.

Happy Centerpiece Wednesday Linky Party easy to Sew a cushion slip cover, grilled Italian eggplant, German Cucumber salad, How to paint a French provincial desk, Simple DIY flower box centerpiece

I love love this idea from Shelly at Calypso in the Country! This is a cardboard box covered with burlap with the black and white striped ribbon. SO BRILLIANT!! The beautiful white and green hydrangeas are some of my favorites. I did a dining by the pool soothing tablescape awhile ago using green hydrangeas that you might remember here

This German Cucumber salad recipe sounds so scrumptious! Cucumbers, mayo, sour cream, chives. I have a cucumber in my fridge so I think I will make this right now! Thank you Lois at Walking on Sunshine Recipes for sharing this recipe with us!

Check out the transformation of this French Provincial desk over at Thrift Diving. Serena does incredible things with furniture she finds at thrift stores! I love a good thrift store makeover myself. I painted this dresser black and used it in my dining room as a sideboard and I loved it!

This beautiful fabric reminded me that I should be in Capri Italy right now! The colors look like the water in the photo above don’t you think? Wendy at My French twist shares a fabulous tutorial for an easy to sew removable cushion cover.

      Aww thank you Kippi! How fun that you lived out there! Where in Italy did you live? I cannot wait to go back and check on our Palazzo with my own eyes. Not much is happening on the ground just yet except clearing the overgrown areas to make space for new construction supplies to be stored. It is really just so exciting! Thanks so much for stopping by and saying Hi. I will keep posting updates as I get them.
      Hugs,
      Karin

    You have shared so many fabulous ideas! I love the ribbon on the box but instead of using a cardboard box I’m going to put the ribbon On my wood box.

      HI Jenna….it is just crazy right now with not being able to fly out of the country 🙁 I just hope it will open up soon! Maybe in the fall we can finally get back over there. Capri is so incredibly gorgeous and everything you could imagine being on an Italian island…pure heaven! Thanks so much for linking up and leaving me such a sweet comment. Enjoy your day!
