Karins Kottage Linky Party Summer ideas

HI friends! Welcome to my linky party filled with summer ideas. I love my Wednesday linky party where I get to share 4 bloggers each week. This week I am sharing some fun summer ideas. A pretty coastal tablescape, how to paint a piece of furniture from Target, a strawberry shortcake in a jar and some cute printable shark week cupcake toppers.

Highlighting last weeks bloggers

Masterpieces of my life has put together a beautiful blue and white coastal tablescape! I am in love with the turquoise blue water bottles that she used in the centerpiece! I love seeing such fun linky party summer ideas!

These cupcake toppers and wrappers are just the cutest! They are perfect for shark week! I think my grandsons would love these! Artsty Fartsy Mama created these as a free printable.

Wait until you see what color this Target piece of furniture started out as. The Antiqued journey shares the best tips on how to paint a piece of furniture from Target.

Karins Kottage Happenings

Things have been a little crazy this week. My father-in-law had a heart attack last Tuesday and we flew to California to be with him and my husbands family. He is doing much better but not completely out of the woods yet. We are so grateful for modern medicine, hospital staff and doctors that take care of patients so well. Recovering from a heart attack at 81 is no small task. He is one tough guy! We are just so grateful for family!

Since we have been gone I haven’t been able to focus on things here for the blog. So I am going to re-share a couple of older posts for you.

Peach crumble bars

These peach crumble bars are sooo yummy and perfect for a summer dessert.

Peach sorbet

Super fast and yummy peach sorbet! I love how fast you can make this with only 5 simple ingredients!

One Sweet Peach birthday party

My daughter put together the most adorable 1st birthday with a peach theme. You will love all her DIY ideas for this birthday.

Linky 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!
