Karins Kottage Linky Party

Halloween Fun Linky Party + Inspiring Fall Ideas! šŸŽƒ

Welcome to this weekā€™s Halloween linky party at Karins Kottage! Iā€™ve chosen six incredible bloggers to highlight, and youā€™re going to fall in love with all the festive and creative ideas theyā€™ve shared. With so many wonderful DIYs, recipes, and crafts circulating in blogland, itā€™s always a challenge to narrow it downā€”but these are sure to inspire you!

An Organized Season

The cutest DIY pumpkin basket using nothing but packing paper and a dollar store trick-or-treat pumpkin. Itā€™s simple, budget-friendly, and absolutely adorable! Check out the full project here.

Over at Crystal Grandeur

Plaid is in the spotlight with a gorgeous fall tablescape featuring a plaid tablecloth. Her photos look like theyā€™ve been pulled straight from the pages of a magazine! You can see her stunning setup here.

Hunny Iā€™m Home

For something spooky yet chic, Hunny Iā€™m Home has turned a dollar store Halloween skull into a fabulous DIY planter. Itā€™s creepy, cool, and elegant all at once. Youā€™ll want to see this unique project here.

Flour On My Face

Flour on My Face whipped up a fun and festive Halloween cookie bark thatā€™s perfect to have on hand when friends and family drop by. Itā€™s colorful, sweet, and totally seasonal. Get the recipe here.

Our Grand Lives

Our Grand Lives is celebrating Halloween with friends and shared their fabulous charcuterie boards. These are filled with delicious treats and perfectly themed for a Halloween gathering. Take a look at their festive spread here.

Cloches and Lavender

Lastly, Cloches and Lavender has the most darling tutorial for DIY acorn napkin rings. These are not only perfect for fall but would be a beautiful addition to your Thanksgiving table too. Learn how to make them here.

Karins Kottage Highlights:

This is a significant week for me as Iā€™m heading into my amputation surgery. While Iā€™ve felt fairly calm most days, Iā€™m incredibly thankful for the many prayers sent my way. Today, Iā€™m going for a lymphoscintigraphy, where a radioactive tracer will be injected into my finger to check for any melanoma spread. The test helps track how things are going, and while Iā€™m definitely nervous,

Iā€™m keeping my sense of humor intact. Iā€™m adding ā€œfinger-tip ectomyā€ to my long list of surgeries!

Iā€™ll keep this linky party up for two weeks just in case I need some extra recovery time. Thank you all for your continued support, love, and prayers. Iā€™ll keep you updated as I go through this journey.

Sending much love and appreciation,
Karin

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!

  • Karin,

    Thank you for the feature! I can't imagine how you feel or what you are going through. I will be sending tons of prayers your way. I saw you saw your finger for the first time. I would have never seen this coming either. I probably would still think it's nothing. Thank goodness you went when you did.

  • Thanks so much for hosting!! I really appreciate the time and effort that goes into it along with visiting all the links!! I hope you are enjoying your week and you are doing well...
    Hugs,

  • Karin, wow, what a shock to receive news of cancer after thinking it was something, nothing at all. I feel pretty certain most of us would have thought as you did before the official diagnosis - a wart, etc. I went back and read the back story. I most definitely will keep you in my prayers for a clean report after the surgery (which you should now be 1 day post). The humor and positive attitude are definite pluses!

    • Rita, It has been crazy to say the least. Who would've thought you could have cancer in your fingernail and that it would be an aggressive melanoma! I still don't have results from my lymph node biopsy so we are hoping and praying for good news.

  • Sending prayers for a successful surgery and a speedy recovery! You've got this! I appreciate all the work that goes into this party! Thanks for hosting and featuring my pumpkin basket!

  • Praying & thinking about you Karin. Hoping for an uneventful experience and a soft recovery. Stay well friend. XO- MaryJo

  • Good luck with the surgery. Good thoughts and prayers are speeding your way for a successful outcome and a speedy recovery.
