So happy to host Karins Kottage linky party #280! Each week I choose to highlight some of you great bloggers. Creativity is something I crave! Don’t you? Thank you for sharing all your ideas and inspiration each week. This week I am highlighting a beautiful floral watercolor, DIY painted pillows, ocean swill cupcakes and a beautiful outdoor sunflower tablescape.
Karins Kottage Happenings
Last week was my birthday and my daughter’s 35th birthday….how is that I have a 35 year old child?! We enjoyed spending time as a family, swimming and having BBQ’s. It was nice to just relax and enjoy being at the lake and paddle boarding.
In case you missed my latest posts-

Linky Party Highlights
I would love to dine here in My Hubbard Home’s backyard. I love the sunflowers and yellow bowls. You need to see the entire post Rachelle always does beautiful things!
How cute are these DIY painted pillows! Perfecting places has a great tutorial on how to make these.
I am a sucker for cute cupcakes! These Ocean swirl beach cupcakes are just adorable. Hunny Im Home shares how she make them. They remind me of my crabby cupcakes that I made for my grandkids.
I love love water color artwork. The Painted Apron is always creating beautiful artwork. I love how she shows how she created this. If you are not into painting it yourself she does offer the for sale on her blog
I just posted a new fashion post today! Let me know what you think! Click to see my post.
your crunchy french toast sounds just delightful! I’m going to have to try it <3
Ms. K, thanks for the feature! I want to try the French toast with GF bread. And I always look forward to your new outfits. They inspire me to think outside the box 🙂
Hi Rachelle! Let me know how the GF french toast turns out! Thank you for your sweet comment! I appreciate it so much!

Happy belated birthday, lady! And to your daughter also! I’m right there with you wondering how we can have daughters 35 (and my oldest is 37!) years old. And yes, absolutely I would (and do!) wear the cardigan shawl wraps. You look fabulous! Thank you for the party. I’ve been grooming my new cottage garden in this first year in our new home, having a lot of fun after four years with no garden at all (condo living). Have a great rest of the week.
Thanks for another fun party, Karin!! So much fun reading all of these today! Hope you are having a lovely summer!
Thanks for hosting and sharing all the wonderful ideas!! Have a great week, Karin!
