Yipppppeee! It's The First Pink Saturday For Bellamere Cottage!

Thank you so much, Beverly, for letting me join your Pink Saturday party! I'm excited to be here.......I can't seem to add links, but please join all the other lovlies at www.howsweetthesound.typepad.com
You'll enjoy it!

The first picture is of my little pink Wade house. I used to collect them, but gave them all to my daughter........well...........except this little pink one. I just couldn't bear to give it up. :-)



A small shot of a dresser in the master bedroom. The lamp was originally brass......I think (to be honest, I don't remember for sure, but it was icky)....painted a pale petal pink and re-wired for safety. I have a thing for trays......one of them is peeking out from behind the lamp.....



As I've said........I LOVE vintage tole trays. This is one from my collection. It's a tiny one.......I think about 7 inches or so.



Oh yes! Pink knobs! I'd add them to everything if I could! They make everything cuter!



A bit of my bedside table. I LOVE that little lamp. I bought just the base at an antique store years ago and made it into the lamp.......it was hard to find a shade that would fit, but I'm determined and prevailed.

Our bedroom is pink and yellow......my very favorite color combination. It's just so happy!

That's my little grandson as a baby. That picture of him is just so sweet.........it makes my heart sing!



A center shot of one of my green tole trays. I couldn't get the darn thing to crop worth beans so I gave up and just did the center. I LOVE those roses! Aren't they so pretty? I wish I could go back in time and watch the artists paint them. They did such a good job. It's interesting how many were painted by the same artists.

I so hope you enjoyed my first Pink Saturday........PINK is my favorite color and when I think of my house I always think in pink, but when it came to photographing things it didn't seem so pink.....hmmmmmmm.........

I'm so glad you came! Thanks again, Beverly.

Have a wonderful weekend dear ones.

Wishing you abundant blessings!

Spencer

I'm in the process of using my lovely collection of items or passing them on. Now you've given me another idea for alternate uses! Must recycle. hahaha Love your blog if you like please visit mine.

  31. Note to Lisa....

    I made the curtains. I must have really loved that fabric because when I went through my stash I found pieces of it umpteen times! A yard here, three yards there....five yards..and on and on. Because I'm thrifty I decided to make that the color/fabric for my new bedroom. I've had it for quite sometime and I don't remember who made it. I haven't seen it for quite awhile......sorry I couldn't help!

  44. Hi Spencer,
    I'm so glad you came to visit my blog and left such sweet comments too. I always love to discover new blogs to visit and yours looks very charming. You have such pretty pink things and I especially like the tole trays.

    I want to express my heartfelt sympathy to you on the loss of your Mum. I can only imagine how hard that has been for you. It is always difficult to lose the people we love, but I think it must be especially hard when it happens the day after Christmas. My thoughts are with you and I hope that your memories of the good times will help to comfort you.

    Hugs,
    Kim

  50. I love your pink things. I wish I could see the entire rooms. The wall paper with the pink flowers is beautiful too. I have a few trays and would love to learn how to paint petty roses on some of them. I bought a book of instructions and hope to learn. Thank you for sharing.
