Welcome to Karins Kottage Weekly Linky Party Centerpiece Wednesday! This is a place where you can come to get inspired!
Bloggers from all over join in this party each week to share things they have been working on!
I love to see the creativity shared each week!
Karins Kottage Happenings
I have been trying something new and little scary. I am sharing Fashion Friday ideas and tips!
It is always kind of nerve wracking to put yourself out on the web like this but I hope it can be helpful to other women my age and with my fashion issues of having a short waist, broad shoulders and a short neck.
This past week I shared how to style Tartan plaid pants after the holidays! This Friday I am sharing a jewel toned winter outfit so come on back on Friday to check it out!
I try to camouflage my square upper body issues as best as I can. So I decided to share my fashion tips with all of you every Friday!
The other fun thing I have been up to is hosting family birthday parties! This French themed birthday party for my granddaughter turned out so cute! I am also sharing a quick and easy Ratatouille that you will LOVE!
It brought back memories of doing a French themed party for my mom for her 75th birthday.
Highlights from weekly Linky party Centerpiece Wednesday
Every year I tell myself that I am going to make some cute aged looking terra cotta pots and it never happens!
This is the year! Look at this adorable pot from Virgina Sweet Pea.
She uses chalk paint to age the pots and tissue paper to print the image.
Brilliant!
Pillar box blue is so dang creative! I love all her ideas and this one is stunning.
Creating this wreath from scraps of yarn and fabric! I have lots of yarn up in my craft room just waiting for a fun project like this!
How sweet is this mini antique basket filled with spring goodness! Common Ground shares this idea on her blog.
I would love to find some mini antique baskets like this! She filled them with real and faux plants and flowers.
I love it!
How incredibly smart is this idea! These are dollar store mirrors that are plastic and Sarah says ugly. Sarah from Salmonde transforms these “ugly” mirrors into Farmhouse cute!
Chalk paint and wax brought new life to these mirrors!

Hi Karen, I’m running really late this week! Thanks so much for sharing my little antique baskets for spring. It was fun putting them together to get spring rolling in. I love seeing what everyone wears, and you look great! I have my issues as most of us do. I’m short, and it’s not always easy to find trendy styles in petites. Thanks for the great ideas, I’ll be cheering you on each Friday! Thanks for hosting!

Rachelle says
Karin, I’m short waisted, so seeing you in such cute, and beautifully modeled outfits is great.
Karins Kottage says
Rachelle! You can relate! Being short waisted is a little tricky isn’t it! There are just some things we cannot wear don’t you agree?
Thanks so much for stopping in. I will post another outfit on Friday.
Hugs,
Karin
