Before we party today on Centerpiece Wednesday I want to tell you what I have been up to! I did my first LIVE Facebook post last Friday! I was a tad bit nervous and even got a little emotional. You can watch the recording if you scroll down to the bottom of the blog or click above and watch it on Youtube. I started talking about how crazy things are in the world and how crafting can make you feel joy and….sheesh, I got emotional LIVE on camera! I was able to pull myself back together and teach how to make coastal Christmas crafts but it sure caught me off guard.
I want to party today on Centerpiece Wednesday I hope you do too! To host each week is just so much fun because I just to see all your fabulous ideas! Please take some time to visit at least 3 other blogs to say Hi. We all know how much we love to read a sweet comment especially when you have worked so hard to post about something.
I have a bunch of lime light hydrangeas in my yard and I need to dry some of them. The house on Silverado shares really great tips on how to do this while saving the color. Did you know that there is a water method to dry hygrangeas? Me either! Go check out her tips.
Holy Cow! This is one amazing transformation! Cherished Bliss not only covered her old brick fireplace with concrete to give it a beautiful new look but she also added shiplap above it!
These sound so delicious and are perfect for the season. What did we do before crock pot cooking? Slow cooker Living shares this easy recipe that I know I will using a lot! Another must have in my kitchen is a roasting pan oven especially at Thanksgiving so I can roast the Turkey but I also use it to roast two chickens at a time.
These colors just speak to my soul! Creamy white, light blue and turquoise says beach to me but they way My Wee Abode displayed this it also says fall. I just love the bleached acorns and the pretty neutral colored florals. Of course the velvet pumpkin is to die for!

Lovely centerpiece, Karin! Saw you on Facebook Live and you did an incredible job!! Keep it up! Lori Nell - Southern Nell's Gracious Living
Thank you so much Lori! It is always a little nerve wracking to try something new but I did it! :) Thanks for stopping by!
Karin
Oh Karin - that's great that you did the FB Live, and glad it was fun! Sometimes it takes a little emotion to get through these things, right? :) Thanks so much for the great features, and for hosting the party. I see lots of things I need to find out about! Take care and Happy Wednesday!
Thank you my sweet friend! :) So happy to have you join in the fun!

Karin, kudos to you for facing your fear AND keeping it real. This year has brought about a lot of changes in us all, and it sounds like yours are much for your betterment. I can honestly say I have learned some new things this year, and have spent a good deal of time focusing on helping close family members. Playing with dishes and even cooking/baking has been my creative outlet through it all. Happy September, and thank you for hosting this weekly get together. It gives us all incentive to do things at home and invite others in virtually!
Hi Karin, thanks for hosting! Facebook lives, oooh scary! Good for you that you had fun doing it!
Hi Jane, Yeah I am working on getting out of my comfort zone and facing fears haha. It wasn't as scary as I thought it would be once I got going and after my little emotional moment. I guess I am just keeping it real right? haha. Thanks so much for linking up and leaving a comment I really appreciate you!
Karin
Thank you so much for featuring my How to Dry Hydrangeas post! I was thrilled when I visited your blog this morning and saw it!
-Niky @ The House on Silverado
Hi Niky! Your hydrangeas are sooo spectacular and I have some limelight hydrangeas that I am going to go out and cut some today and try out some of your drying ideas! I wish I had some hygrangeas that were the pinkish color when they dry but really...I will take any type of hydrangea!
Karin
I could never do a live presentation, good for you!! I'm sure next time will be much easier! Thanks so much for Centerpiece Wednesday!
Hi Jenna,
You could totally do a Live presentation! You have such great ideas on your blog and it would be fun to see what you would share! Your heart will beat out of your chest for a bit and then it calms down haha then you realize that everyone watching is a friend :) nothing to be afraid of. Thanks so much for always supporting me and leaving a comment I really appreciate it.
Hugs,
Karin
I don't think I'd attempt a facebook live presentation, lol! Kudos!
You can do it! It was a little scary at first but then I felt pretty comfortable once I got over my emotions haha. Thanks so much for stopping by and saying Hi. I appreciate it sooo much.
Karin
Congrats on the facebook live! I'm too scared to try that!...good for you! Thanks for hosting and enjoy your week!
Shelley
haha If I can do it so can you! It is a little scary at first and then you just realize that they are your friends and want to learn how to make the craft or whatever you are showing. Then I started to relax and enjoy it. Hope you try to do one soon!
