2nd Anniversary of Pink Saturday

This is the second anniversary of Pink Saturday with Beverly of How Sweet the Sound!

Please join in the fun of all things Pink!

I am highlighting a pretty plate my Mother-In-Law gave me one Christmas. I don't know anything about the maker of this plate.

Does anyone with Pink Saturday know anything special about this manufacturer?

I Still Can Sew!!!

If you are my sister, get out of the blog NOW, unless you want to spoil one of your birthday presents from me.

Everyone else, I can still sew. Sewing was my first craft love. I even use to sew models for a quilt store - not quilts though - I made the cute little stuff animals and dolls. I think I burned myself out on sewing by doing that, but after a long break, it feels really good again.

I found this sunglass case pattern on Studio Cherie. The pattern is available on etsy in her etsy shop. The fabric I used is by Moda and is called Frolic. I got the fabric at a local quilt store but it is also available at The Fat Quarter Shop online.

Thanks for looking!

Cute Etsy Find

I found the cutest herb garden markers. At first, I had the lovely plastic markers that come with the plants. Actually, I know the difference between the different herbs, but I just wanted some of those cute markers. So, on with the search and this is what I bought.

And here are my happy herbs...

Miss Rosemary - love you in a roast!

Miss Basil - you are great in salads!

and Miss Oregano. Also great in roast and pastas.



You can get your own set at CambriRea's Shop!

Welcome to Beverly's Pink Saturday!

Another busy week! Kids are finished with college exams!!! But a busy summer is in store.

Today I am excited to show a piece of depression glass that I got for my Mother for Mother's Day. (shhhh, don't tell her please!)

There must of been a piece similar to this one that my Grandmother had and after her passing, it has disappeared and my Mother does not know where it is or which family member has it. Anyway, she found a piece on ebay and asked me to look at it and possibly place a bid for her. I didn't get that auction - it got way to expensive, but about 1 month ago I started looking again and found this pretty piece.

Looks like I need to examine blogs more carefully and learn how to "stage" a prettier picture. Bare with me, someday I may learn.

To find a lot of pretty pink items, go to Beverly's blog and have fun hopping from blog to blog.

I enjoy reading Lisa's blog of Pupylov from Pink Saturday. Her blog is actually in my Google Reader. Hop over there for some more pretty pink items.
