Weekly Linky Party: Sweet Treats, Savory Ideas, Christmas Kitchen Magic, and a Stunning DIY

Hello, friends! 🎄 This week’s Christmas linky party has inspiration, DIy’s with all things festive and creative. Can you believe this little corner of creativity has been going strong for over 10 years? I’m so grateful for all the amazing ideas you share each week. Let’s dive into some fabulous features that caught my eye this time

A Little Sweet


First up, Crystal and Comp shared an irresistible recipe for Easy Shortbread Christmas Cookies (find it here). These rich, buttery cookies are my absolute favorite for the holidays. Simple, classic, and perfect with a cup of hot chocolate by the fire!

A Little Savory


From Hunny I’m Home DIY comes the most adorable Charcuterie Skewers Wreath (check it out here). She used fresh rosemary for the greenery, creating a festive and tasty addition to any holiday table. I’m totally stealing this idea for my next party!

A Christmas Kitchen


Shelley from Calypso in the Country has transformed her kitchen into a holiday wonderland (see it here). Her decor is warm, inviting, and full of seasonal charm. I love how she combines practical touches with festive flair.

A Stunning DIY


A Ray of Sunlight shared an incredible Antique Buffet DIY Paint Makeover (check it out here). The before and after will leave you swooning. It’s amazing what a little paint and vision can do to breathe new life into a piece of furniture.

Karin’s Kottage Happenings


At my Kottage, we held our annual Sugar Plum Fairy Night with our grandkids. It’s always a favorite tradition! We had breakfast for dinner, played games, and gave the kids small gifts.

This weekend, we braved the cold to visit a German Christmas market called Christkindle to watch our granddaughter perform with her singing group. Though the lighting wasn’t ideal for pictures and the venue was packed, the festive spirit was in full swing. We even spotted Krampus!

Now it’s your turn! Link up your projects, recipes, and creative ideas below. I can’t wait to see what inspires me this week. 🌟

Happy linking!
Karin

    Oh these holiday posts are so much fun to look at and enjoy! Working in retail has really drained my holiday spirit over the years, I am really ready to slow down and spend more time at home. I did take a step in that direction, and hopefully it will rekindle my holiday spirit. Have a wonderful week!
