Karins Kottage Linky Party

Centerpiece Wednesday Linky Party 2021

We made it! It is 2021 and things are looking bright for this new year! Welcome to Centerpiece Wednesday Linky Party 2021. I can’t wait to share the fun things that caught my eye from last weeks CPW. Such creative ladies and I feel fortunate to be able to highlight them this week.

What I have been up to

I have been working on some Valentine’s projects that I think you will all love. One in particular is a project that even your kids or grandkids will love to make! I am gathering ideas for our annual Galentine’s party that I do with my daughters and granddaughters. So stay tuned for that! I have also been organizing my craft room! Here is one idea that I know you will love. Organizing wrapping paper!

Centerpiece Wednesday Highlights

My friend Rachelle has been feathering her nest for January and shares simple but beautiful ideas. How to refresh and look at your surroundings in a new light.

I love her post because after I take down my Christmas decor I too feel a little sad and everything looks barren. These are great tips!

At home with Ashley shares a fabulous tutorial on how to paint veneer furniture! Look at this darling little side table and how it turned out!

In her tutorial she goes step by step even showing how to repair loose veneer.

Next time I am in the thrift store I won’t turn down a veneer piece of furniture knowing it could look like this!

Ok so I love love English muffins and when I saw this recipe for English muffin bread I was so thrilled! Red Cottage Chronicle It makes 4 loves so I could keep some in the freezer or give to friends.

I am so excited to try this recipe!

Yvonne at Stone Gable always shares such helpful ideas and her post about putting away Christmas did not disappoint.

Things like store like items together, use smaller sized boxes that are clear instead of the big huge bins.

The best idea is to use your smart phone and take pictures of what is inside your boxes so you will know what you have for next year! I actually did that this year!

Welcome 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!
