Welcome to Karins Kottage Linky Party #267 where you can find lots of fun ideas for your home. It is such a pleasure to host this party every week. Highlighting 4-6 bloggers each week is such a treat for me and I hope for each of you too!

Who am I highlighting this week?

I am so glad you asked! First up is My Family Thyme 5 easy ways to to welcome spring into your kitchen. I just love her idea of hanging a spring wreath in the kitchen.

I think I might like to hang one on my my pantry door. She shares lots of other simple and refreshing ideas for your kitchen.

Cottage in the mitten had me smitten (did you like my rhyming there haha) with her blue, white and a little bit of pink tablescape.

The large blue vase in the middle is just so eye catching!

The little touch of light pink dinner plates just makes for a beautiful inviting table.

Speaking of pink look at this thrifted tablescape that Thrifting wonderland created!

Truly she is a master at finding such beautiful items at the thrift store and then putting them all together like magic!

I seriously need to be thrifting more often!

A few years ago I used all thrifted items to create my dining room here.

    Even as a parent I always looked forward to the egg hunts (at grandparents or in-law’s houses!). They are so much fun and while I don’t mind buying and stuffing the eggs I really dislike having to hide them myself. My boys are all too big for that now but I know they have such fond memoires of candy overload. Sounds like you had a really delicious Easter too!
