PINK Saturday! 8/9/08

PINK Saturday!


Sweet Beverly of How Sweet the Sound always is our hostess for PINK Saturday, so please stop by her blog & see the complete list of other participants HERE! There are always tons of participants.

Everyone seems to enjoy my mirrors, so let's start with one of those. I tend to decorate with mainly PINK items, like this Rachel Ashwell Shabby Chic bottle.
This is one of my favorite Lampe Bergers, in PINK, of course!
Another antique mirror ~ I have my sweet PRH Sister Lorena of Rose Chic Friends to thank for this vignette ~ she & her little pink Southern Belle pushing a baby carriage were the inspiration for mine!
Love these pink sunglasses I found on eBay. Haven't you heard that all things look better in rose-colored glasses?!?


I found a wonderful sight for baby bedding & nursery accessories here at Nava Designs! Isn't this just the most adorable pink/green combination?


A vintage postcard ~ love the little dog's pink collar & pillow!
And finally, for my sweet blogging friend Lori of Pink Faded Roses, a little Pink Hello Kitty Costume on a furry friend!! Feel better soon, sweetie!!
Off to visit my friends that are posting PINK today!!

Hugs,

Happy PINK Saturday!

Happy PINK Saturday!

Wanted to share this adorable pink postcard with you today on PINK Saturday even tho it is a Happy New Year card. Isn't this just the sweetest expression on this child?!?!

Look at these fun PINK flex tees I found on eBay ~ in support of Breast Cancer Awareness ~ hubby would croak if I got these for his "game"!! But they do come in more manly colors, too, like mad bull red!


I didn't realize that horse shoe ribbons come in PINK!! How awesome & beautiful is that? I'd ALWAYS strive for 5th Place!!

Saved back one of my little dressforms for today since it is pink ~ another little porcelain hinged box from my mother.

Sweet Beverly of How Sweet the Sound always is our hostess for PINK Saturday, so please stop by her blog & see the complete list of other participants HERE! There are 72 participants this week!! WOW!

SHOW ME YOUR FORM Party!

SHOW ME YOUR FORM Party!



Our friend Tiffany at Shabby Scraps is hostessing a party today & is asking everyone to show off their dressforms! I have such a mania for these that I couldn't wait to join in & show mine again!




My very favorite dressform display is my wedding gown back from 1974. Oh gosh, I'm vintage now!!



This little black beauty is named Elvira & she moves around the house, but is currently in our bedroom.

I made Izzy (named for the Laura Ashley Isabelle fabric used to make her) for my mother for Christmas back a few years ago. She was definitely a labor of love!

She features a crocheted collar from my grandmother & a vintage rhinestone brooch that belonged to my late mother-in-law.





This pretty wire dressform is from Ballard Designs.





I found this adorable idea for a lamp from the HGTV site. I'd love to try to make one of these sometime!


Now, back to a few of my favorite miniature dressforms in our bedroom.






The small dressform to the left is a tiny porcelain hinged box.

Back side is also decorated.




This little prom dress dressform is displayed in my granddaughter's bedroom.



Two of my favorite miniature dressforms in antique taupe in our bedroom atop my wedding plantation cupboard.
Beautiful detailing on the backside, too!
Another inside our armoire.


Hope you've enjoyed my little mania (hubby says "illness") for dressforms ~ careful, or you might catch it, too!! And there is NO CURE! Now, I'm off to visit all the other party participants HERE! Thanks so much, Tiffany, for having such a great idea!!
