Hello and welcome to Pink Saturday hosted by Beverly of How Sweet the Sound. Thank you Beverly for hosting such a fun event.
I'm getting my post up late today due to satellite problems.
Today is my 100th post, I can't believe that I've done that much posting already. Time sure does fly! It has been so much fun sharing my creativity and fun events in my life with you! So to celebrate the occasion and thank you for sharing I'm having a giveaway. My very first post was about the history of this farm, if you have not read it I think you would enjoy!
The pretty pink embroidered heartstrings above are for giveaway and a few things shown below.
I've picked up some pretty things lately at Flea Markets so I'd thought I 'd pass a few on to you. This pretty glass bowl is from Italy, I thought it would be pretty to hold candy, sachets, flowers or just about anything. It's a nice 8x3 in size.
Also in my give-away is the March issue of County Living and the Jan./Feb. issue of Southern Lady (one of my favorite magazines)! Also a pretty tiny 4x5 cottage chic print.
All you have to do to be entered in the drawing is post a comment here on this post. If you put a link to my blog on your blog I will enter your name twice. Be sure to tell me if you do that so I can enter your name again. I will have the drawing on March 10th so that will give two Pink Saturdays and two Blue Mondays for people to enter.
Pictured below are all the items in the give-away.
Next I have to show you some pretty things that I've made this week and will be listing in my Etsy Shop this weekend for sale. These are not in the give away. Sorry!
Please feel free the click on the picture so you can get a good look!
I've always made these pretty Tea Towels using my needlework and thought I would make some using the pretty stash of fabric that I have collected over the years. They look pretty on a towel rack or just in a tablescape with your other pretty collectables.
This pretty one is made from Susan Branch fabric called "Afternoon Tea" with a ruffle of light pink and white doves.
Silk ribbon embroidered heart strings for St. Patricks Day.
I have always loved Victorian, (it still tugs at my heart) in fact my first apartment that my husband and I set up in 1971 was Victorian. We had purchased the furniture that was then called Colonial Dark Pine and I mixed that with all the pretty Victorian accessories that my Mother In Law told me to help myself to from her basement. So there was my version of " Country Victorian". So for my first item in my Victorian Line is this pretty heart garland done on black with bold colors of silk. Also filled with some fresh lavender.
