Happy Pink Saturday!!!!

Thank you so much for coming to visit! I LOVE all of you! :-)

Oh yes!!!! There are lots of sweet pinks this Saturday. That dear Beverly over at www.howsweetthesound.typepad.com hosts this little pink party. You'll want to zip right on over and get your PINK FIX! :-)

Yep....fake flowers. I know lots of people hate them, but I've gotta say...I just LOVE me some nice fake flowers....especially if they're pink. I wanted a little glass basket like this one for a very long time. My sweet little daughter bought this one for me as a little giftie. Isn't it cute?? And, I know I've said everything is so much cuter with a nice bow on it.....so, why not tie some around a nice little group of vintage bibles. One of these old gals has notes in it. I LOVE that. I used to be so afraid to mess up my bible, but now.....yep, I write in it.....and this one is so sweet because of it's dear little markings.

I collect little vintage dog figurines. This is just one of MANY! Gotta love a little dog.


A peek at the corner of the kitchen. .......we don't have a HomeGoods anywhere near where I live, but they do have a nice one in Portland. I got the petite cake/cookie stand there. It was a wonderful day! The lamp is a bunch of old glass stuff that I put together. The ribbed part that you see is actually half of a set of candlesticks.....and that darling shade? Tuesday Morning. Can you believe it? I liked it so well, I bought two.



Well, I'll be darned. My darling daughter bought this lovely little pillow for me too....isn't she sweet? Gosh, she's a good girl.




Yeah, this is NOT a nice big tole tray, but one of the beensie ones. I love it though.




I bought this little medicine cabinet a million years ago. I've used it for all kinds of things, but right now I have tiny doo-dads in it.

Ok....I'm pooped and I really should have gone to bed a long time ago. We went out to dinner for my precious grandson's birthday and tomorrow is his party....whoa....now that's a lot of party for this old gal! I'd better get some zzzzzzz's.

I forgot my camera at my daughter's so I didn't have the pix I had planned for Pink Saturday....I'll save them for next week.

Hugs to all!

Have a blessed and safe weekend.

Spencer

  7. Beautiful and fun Pink Saturday blog entry! It's a little gloomy outside today (hope the sun comes out) but your blog and a little cup of tea are giving me a little sun!

    Wouldn't have known they were fake flowers if you didn't tell me☺

    Happy Pink Saturday. Sending you good wishes from the tip of Michigan for a special weekend filled with sun, surrounded by those you l♥ve.

  13. I'm with you, Spencer...I love faux flowers. I really don't know why the "decorators" bash them so badly. If it were not for faux, I wouldn't have any flowers or greenery in my house because I don't have a green thumb and I sure can't afford fresh flowers every week.

    You don't know how much I would love to come "shopping" at your house. You truly have some beautiful things!

  14. I love fake pink flowers but they gotta be the GOOD ONES and they can be big $$$. Still, I'd rather have nothing than those that speak to my soul. So, I wait until I can afford what I want. :)

    LOVE THIS POST! Beautiful!

  40. Oh my goodness.. when you showed and mentioned the glass basket, I immediately thought "That looks like mine!" But you would be upset with me if you saw where I have it!! BAD BEANSIE! I am inspired, however, to get it out and display it properly!! I love the flowers, and Heaven knows I am VERY good at taking care of silk flowers!!! Yes, I definitely have a talent for taking care of fake plants!! (0; Happy Pink Saturday!
