Karins Kottage Happenings

Guess what!! I am in Paris right now! This is our first time being in France and it is magical!

The weather is nippy for sure and we have to bundle up every time we step outside but it is so amazing here at Christmas time!

We walked around the Notre Dame under construction from the fire that they had.

It is stunning!

We walked all around last night seeing everything lit up.

How about this amazing building all lit up!

This is there city hall area in Paris and they have little woodland vignettes set up all around the area.

If I could read French I could tell you all about it but there was no English “subtitles” anywhere to found haha.

We stopped by this incredible outdoor Christmas market.

Kind of like a carnival with rides, tons of food booths and craft booths.

I can’t even begin to describe how amazing this is.

I will be posting more about Paris as we go along. Plus we head back to Italy in a few days to check on our Palazzo and see more Christmas markets.

So stay tuned!

This Ombre tree DIY is such a cool idea!

My French Twist shows how she created it using dollar store ornaments!

So creative and fun!

I can’t wait to try this recipe for Spiral apple bread.

Treat & Trick shares the full recipe and directions.

I think this would be so yummy on Christmas morning!

Need a neighbor gift or a fun gift for teachers!

How about these darling marshmallow pops!

Bluesky at home shares how to make these easy treats.

These darling blue and white napkin rings that This Dear Casa has created are decoupaged paper towel pieces!

I know! Unbelievable huh!

They look like blue and white porcelain!

Well I am off to go get some pastries for my breakfast! Enjoy the party!

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!
