All things spring linky party #312! Last weeks party was filled with so so many great spring ideas. You should pop over there if you are looking for St Patrick’s day food and party ideas and Easter recipes and decor for your house.

This week I am highlighting 4 bloggers that really showed their spring ideas. An amazing DIY European cake stand, Irish soda bread recipe (which I love), 4 spring tablescapes using cabbage plates and how to style an afternoon tea tray! I know you will love all these amazing ladies so pop on over to say hi.

Karins Kottage Linky party highlights

First up is this fabulous cake stand that The Crowned Goat created out of a light cover and a plate! I know absolutely amazing what she created out of thrifted items!

A DIY European Farmhouse Cake Stand that is really stunning.

Irish soda bread is so yummy! I am excited to try out Cincy Shopper’s recipe. Simple ingredients that you most likely have on hand make this bread crusty on top and dense inside. It is a quick bread so no kneading and goes perfect with stews or soups. Add in raisins to make it sweet or herbs to make is more savory.

I have always loved green cabbage leaf plates. They are perfect for spring and Calypso in the country is sharing 4 different spring tablescapes using these fabulous plates.

They are really versatile and really scream Easter to me. Make sure to pop over and see all her ideas.

How sweet is this Afternoon Tea tray that Decorative Inspirations styled? I am dying over her grandmothers Japanese tea set. The blue tea pots and cups have such a pretty look to them.

There is also a blog hop of many other bloggers that joined up for tea time on a tray. All the links are on her blog.

Karins Kottage Happenings

Here are few of my favorite spring ideas that I think you will enjoy. First is a college graduation party that I did a few years back. It continues to be one of top 5 posts that everyone seems to enjoy.

I put together a cute dessert bar and made diploma cookies (no bake), graduation hat mini cupcakes, brownie bites, lemon bars and more.

Easy spring tablescape using grocery store flowers. It really does not get any easier than this!

You will love this St Patrick’s day tablescape that I did using copper pennies! I made a runner to go down the middle of the table

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!
