Karins Kottage Linky Party

Patriotic DIY Table Ideas and Summer Inspiration

Hello friends! Welcome back to this week’s linky party! I’m loving all the fun, festive, and creative patriotic DIY table ideas you’ve been sharing lately. This week’s features are full of inspiration to get you ready for summer gatherings, the 4th of July, and even a little crafting time for yourself.


📌 Cute DIY Cork Board Projects

From Sonata Home Design
Sonata has the cutest ideas for turning a simple cork board into a beautiful and functional piece of decor. It’s a great way to create a vision board or inspiration center for your home office or craft room.

💡 I actually made a version of one too! Check out how I styled mine:

🇺🇸 Stars, Stripes, and Checks Tablescape

From Panoply Blog
This tablescape is all about elegance with a patriotic twist. From Royal Check chargers to classic Staffordshire dinnerware and those darling seersucker napkins, this table is ready to celebrate in style.


⚾ Patriotic Decor with Baseball Place Cards

From Masterpieces of My Life
Talk about a clever twist on patriotic table decor! Using baseballs as place cards is such a fun way to combine America’s pastime with red, white, and blue vibes for your 4th of July celebration.


🍉 Watermelon Fudge for the Fourth

From Drugstore Divas
This fun and festive watermelon fudge recipe is an easy treat that’s great for parties or just a fun afternoon project with the grandkids. Sweet, colorful, and totally summer!


Karins Kottage Happenings

I’ve been enjoying a relaxing vacation in my hometown of Newport Beach, California—it’s been so refreshing to soak in the sun, sand, and sweet time with our grandkids. Watching them play at the beach has been the highlight of my week!

Don’t miss some of my vacation packing tips I shared over on Instagram:

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!
