4th of July treats decor and tablescape ideas

Welcome to another centerpiece linky party filled with 4th of July treats decor and tablescape ideas! I seriously can’t get enough of the red white and blue!

We will have family here to celebrate and I am so excited!

There are so many fun ideas filling my head I just need to decide which ones I want to do!

4th of July tablescape ideas

Let’s get right to it! I was really impressed with Peacock Ridge Farm 4th of July tablescape! So perfect for todays theme of 4th of july treats decor and tablescape ideas don’t you agree?

I love how she used so many American Flags sticking out of her gorgeous blue and white vases.

Renae shared a tip on how to get the flags to stand upright by using tape! I love how she used grocery store flowers for her centerpiece! I do that too!

Here is one of my favorite tablescapes using grocery store flowers.

4th of July treats

I love a butter cookie and what is not to love when they have red white and blue sprinkles on them!

The great thing about Living Life as Moms recipe is that it has lemon extract in them instead of vanilla. YUMMM!

How absolutely cute are these 4th of July firecracker jell-o cups from Cincy Shopper!

These are made with two different flavors of jello and some unflavored gelatin and milk with a maraschino cherry on top!

So so cute! Isn’t jello an all American dessert…I have sweet memories of eating it as a kid 🙂

4th of July Decor

Debbees Buzz always has amazing holiday wreaths and this one is no exception! The ribbons that she used to make the wreath are so nostalgic.

I love that she named it “uncle sam wreath pedals bike to July 4th parade!

So cute and fun!

Karins Kottage Happenings

We have been busy with our grandkids lately. Spending time at the lake going paddle boarding, taking walks around the lake, eating smore’s and having sleepovers.

I wish I could make time stand still because this is such a special time right now with these pups!

Our oldest granddaughter will soon be a teenager and probably won’t want to spend as much time at grandma’s house. So I am soaking up as much time with the grands as I can.

We have the best friends because they let us store our boards at their house. We live right off the lake and they live right on the lake so it makes it so nice that we don’t have to lug all our stuff over there.

Even the three year old helps bring in the paddles. Notice she is also carrying her snack bag 🙂

Such fun memories for us!

Feeding the ducks on our walk around the lake. It is these little pleasures in life that we sometimes take for granted.

Karins Kottage

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!

I hope you have a great week!

  • Karin, thanks so much for featuring Uncle Sam and the lovely remark you made about my handmade wreaths. Much appreciated! Today, I'm sharing a holiday table set with vintage Liberty Blue dishes. And, the story of my husband's ancestor who lived in Philadelphia was a spy for General Washington during the Revolution. I loved seeing the joyful pix of your grandchildren enjoying the outdoors and nature around your home. We went to the zoo when my elderly mom was visiting recently --- and the best part was seeing all the young families and kiddos.

  • Hi Karin, I'm loving all the red, white and blue! So nice you can swim and play with your grands, that's what summer is all about...I'm looking forward to spending the 4th week on the coast with mine. Happy Summer!
