Karins Kottage Linky Party- November

Welcome to Karins Kottage LInky party November. So sorry I am late in posting this week. I am on my way traveling to Italy! This is our last trip for the year to go and check out our Palazzo Ricci! I am on the plane watching the old movie Funny Face with Audrey Hepburn and writing this blog post. Ahhh living in this day age is amazing isn’t it!

Last weeks party had loads of fall ideas and some Christmas too. Fall is such a beautiful time of year that I want to relish it as long as possible before I get my Christmas decor out. But I love seeing all the fun ideas too!

Highlights from last weeks party

Let’s get right to the 4 fabulous ideas that I know you will want to pin to your Pinterest boards for later.

The first idea is this how to make easily leaf stamped tea towels. So perfect for Thanksgiving don’t you agree? My family Thyme shares all the directions on her blog.

These pesto chicken stuffed pasta shells sound so delicious. It makes my mouth water thinking I will soon be in Italy eating all the pasta I could ever want! Homemade on a week night has the recipe on her blog.

My Wee abode has made these adorable stretch velvet acorns. Julie shares to make them the easy way. These would look so cute on a Thanksgiving tablescape wouldn’t they?

The Crowned goat is sharing 12 ways to ease into the holidays. I love this idea of setting up a cute wrapping center. I mean why not make it beautiful when you are wrapping so many presents. It will bring in the spirit of giving even more fun.

Karins Kottage Highlights

Halloween was so much fun. My daughters came over with their kiddos as well as a yummy dinner for all of us. My oldest daughter is vegan and she made scrumptious potato slices with guacamole using both a regular potato and a yam..

A cucumber snake was super fun and easy for the kids too

Plus she also put together these fun apples slices with almond teeth and grapes.

My friends thank you for always want participating in my linky party each week even when I run late. I hope to post more about our travels to Italy soon. Until then you can follow me on Instagram where I post pictures often.

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!
