Pinking At The Cottage

Hi Girlies!


And, Happy Pink Saturday.....


Don'tcha just love peeking around at the lovely and delicious shade of pink?



It makes my heart sing.


Bidden or Unbidden
God is Always Present.


I LOVE that little phrase, don't you?





Ahhh.....My very favorite fake posies. Eddie Bauer had these many years ago. I bought them on clearance for a song. I'm crazy about them....even if they are fake!




Oh YES......more fake posies. I really love 'em. Chintz teapot orphan (she lost her lid, darn it all).


And, my souvenir from my trip to Kansas. Old Yellow Dog.



A frame made into a tray....with barkcloth under glass.


Yep, I know I've told you I'm Tightwad Tilly. You really don't think that's a REAL piece of barkcloth do you? Nahhhh.....It's a handy dandy photocopy. Hey, it works....don't laugh.




Cracking myself up here..........MORE fake posies? Ah, come on Spencer.




Oh Holy Moly....It's the REAL deal?

Even I am excited.



Now I just know you don't have your pink appetite satisfied with these puny little pix.


For lots more Pink FUN...

Happy Pink Saturday Girlies!

Happy Pink Saturday! Loads more fun from all the other great posters at
www.howsweetthesound.typepad.com.

Miss Beverly hosts this event every week.....it just keeps getting bigger and bigger....grab your morning cuppa and have some fun! :-)

I've switched things around a bit since these snaps were taken....but still, it's pink, right!!!!??

I LOVE that pink cabinet. Nobody else in my family likes it, but what the heck, it was only 25 dollars and makes me really happy. It started life as a yukky, dirty white, but a nice coat (really about a zillion) of pink paint and it was transformed. It had disgusting pulls and none of the new ones fit the hole space, so let's just bend some old spoons.....it worked! And, it makes that little cupboard sort of zippy, don't you think? It holds sooooo much stuff! It's amazing. And, it's right there by the table, so it's easy when we entertain....



Have I shown you this picture before? I can't remember......I just know I'm pooped and I can't remember anything right now....so, if I'm cheating I'm sorry!



The little vignette from the entry table....I love things that contain a lot of little "stuff"... :-)



My dearest, darling hubbs bought the teapot for me as a Christmas gift several years ago...and I LOVE old teacups. I gave about 10 sets to my daughter...do I really need all of them?? :-)




I've had the old Language of Flowers book for a long time, but I still love it....it used to have a nice cover on it....and MORE teacups. Gotta love a nice stack of them. The bottom cup is Shelley...isn't it cute? I got it for a buck at the thrift store because it didn't have a saucer. I didn't care.....it was way too cute to pass up.

And, of course, the little shelf started life as a natural wood piece....YUK! Nothing like some paint to fix it up!


Now, you've probably already seen this hot tip here in Blogville....but here's a free treat for you!

Go here:

www.glidden.com/index.do

And, they'll send you a FREE quart of paint in your choice of colors! It's eggshell finish, so it would be perfect to re-paint a bit of furniture!

It's freeeeee!!!!!!!! You can't lose here!

I hope you have a wonderful weekend and that you enjoy some special time with your family. Time flies, you know!

God bless you alllllllll super abundantly!

Hugs!
Spence
