This calming beach-themed table is a beautiful blend of gratitude and coastal vibes. It’s a sweet reminder to savor the season with those you love most. Love the idea of using this for Father’s day and placing photos in the glass vases.

Take a peek at this pretty outdoor table created with a mix of thrifted finds and classic summer style. It’s a lovely example of how vintage pieces can come together to create a meaningful setting. These dishes remind me of my mom because she had a beautiful set of the same kind. I inherited some of her bowls that match these plates.

Karins Kottage Happenings
I have had the opportunity lately to work with Coldwater Creek and I am in love with this linen jacket. I have one in white but I am swooning over the navy and the deep purple. Linen is so perfect for summer. Here is a link to the linen jacket.
Oh and the drawstring pants are the most comfortable pants I own also from Coldwater Creek! Here is the link for the pants.
