ROSE WEDNESDAY



Hello and welcome to Rose Wednesday hosted by Jan & Tom's Rose Haven. If you go to their blog you can get a list of all the other participants.
Today I have some of my Valentine decorations with roses. Please feel free to click on the picture to get a nice large view!


The picture above are some silk roses and above a pretty victorian girl that I made years ago from a doll fabric cutout panel. Bumble Bee Bowser is posing for us! The little girls with kitties/dummy board are from an ebay seller, the link is below.


The picture above is a pretty floral arrangement in a candy box, my daughter Jen made this for me when she was working at a florist several years ago, also pictured is a vintage post card on a dummy board. I buy these on ebay and they have a fantastic collection of items. The seller is Stromboli's Wagon, here's her link on ebay.

Next is an adorable little Valentine goose that I stitched years ago and my daughter Jen painted the roses on the candlestand for me.


A pretty little kitty with a rose in her mouth that I cross stitched and made into a heart hanger with some millinery and a little bling. Below is another cross stitch that was a shop sample when I had my cross stitch shop back in NJ.
Thank you so much for stopping by and thank you to Jan and Tom for hosting such a fun event. If you scroll down to a few previous posts you can see some more Valentine's decorations and a Valentine/Anniversary Tea Party also hosted by Jan and Tom.
Bless You! Shirl

PINK SATURDAY & ANNIVERSARY



Hello and welcome to Pink Saturday hosted by Beverly of How Sweet the Sound. If you go to her blog you can get a list of the other participants.
Yesterday my husband and I celebrated our wedding anniversary of 38 years. We celebrated by going to a quaint little restaurant for dinner.


Here we were 38 years ago, it seems hard to believe that it 's been that long, the time went so fast! We have had a wonderful, rich (in love) and full life, we have a son and a daughter and three grandsons. Oh my has the world changed around us since 1971! We are still happy on our little farm in WV with our children and grandchildren living right on our little piece of paradise.


My husband is so sweet, he surprised me with this ring, he saw it and knew being pink I would love it. Knowing how much I love bling he almost always buys me jewerly for gifts!

He also picked out this pink butterfly necklace to go with it. I love them both.
Ed has wonderful taste in jewerly don't ya think?
Another peek at Valentine's Day in my home!
Thank you so much for stopping by and thank you Beverly for hosting such a fun event. I'll be back on Monday for Blue Monday with Sally, try to stop back, I'd love to see you!
Bless you! Shirl
