Karins Kottage Linky Party Highlights

Hello to all my linky party friends! I love hosting my Karins Kottage linky party each week and highlighting 4 of your ideas. You always amaze me with your talents whether it is a great DIY project or an amazing recipe, Organizing tips, beautiful tablescapes or fashion. You always inspire me! Here are the 4 bloggers I am highlighting this week.

Highlights From Last Week

Creative Moments has done such an incredible job of transforming this gorgeous antique china cabinet. I absolutely love how this turned out. Make sure to stop by to see the step by step instructions

Homemade on a weeknight is sharing a delicious recipe for a blackberry prosciutto crostini. I am a sucker for a good crostini and this one looks so good! The trick is whipping the cream cheese.

Bushel and a Pickle has put together a fun whimsical winter wonderland tablescape with snowman mugs. I love the idea of making things special during winter after Christmas.

An Organized Season is doing a home organizing challenge for winter. Donna and Rich have really put together some great tips and ideas on how to get organized. Every small step brings you closer to a peaceful and inviting home.

Karins Kottage Happenings

Last week I was washing all my white slipcovers from my sofa and chairs. As you can see in the photo they get so dirty with so many people coming in the house through the holidays. It is always such a good feeling to get them nice and clean.

I use this amazing spot remover product that my niece told me about and it really works! You can even use it on fabric items that have been through the dryer!

My hubby, sister and sister in-law made a really quick trip to Arizona to celebrate our step-mom for her 80th birthday. It was so fun to be with some family members that I had not seen in over 20 years!

Another fun project I have been working on is updating my dining room. Here are a few sneak peeks of things I am working on and will be sharing soon! I am going with a more neutral beachy look. I am really excited to share how I only shopped my house to do this too!

Party time!

Link up new or old creative posts. I want to see what you are going to do for Valentine’s day. I can’t wait to see your creativity in home projects, crafts, fashion and recipes.

You are invited to the Inlinkz link party!

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!
