Get Into Spring Linky Party

This weeks linky party will get you into spring! I am really craving spring right now. Winter has been here long enough! I really shouldn’t complain because last year we had snowmageddon. This year we had some snow and rain and lots of cloudy days. Spring will be here before I know it and I just can’t wait!

Spring linky party highlights

Decoupaging eggs is something I have wanted to try. Hunny I’m Home blog has this craft down pat. These eggs look handpainted but they are not. Using beautiful spring paper napkins and decoupage glue you can have beautiful eggs in no time!

Another fun decoupage idea is from Apple Street Cottage Blog. How to upcycle a candle jar using paper napkins. I have been a fan of decoupage for years now. In fact I had a small business where I decoupage baskets and sold them to Nordstroms many years ago!

St. Patrick’s day is coming up soon and I am always looking for some fun ideas for my table. The Painted Apron has lots of adorable tablescapes that you don’t want to miss. This one in particular caught my eye with the cute little leprechaun and lots of green and peach.

Speaking of peach how about this delicious sounding balsamic peach dessert pizza! It is made with blasamic glaze which is to die for and marscapone cheese. Homemade on a weeknight has the details on how to make this delectable dessert.

Karins Kottage Happenings

Life here at the Kottage has been fun with family birthdays and dinners. Two of my grandkids are celebrating birthdays this month. How can I have a 15 yr old granddaughter?? I remember the day she was born like it was yesterday. My daughter, Emily, made this amazing cake for the kids!

On Sunday we had the family over to celebrate the birthday kids and I made homemade focaccia bread that is so yummy! Recipe is coming.

My granddaughter loves to experiment in the kitchen. Ella begged me to help her make these candy coated fruit on sticks. They turned out really pretty and yummy too.

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!
