Hello and welcome to another Pink Saturday hosted by Beverly of How Sweet The Sound. If you would like to join us just go to her blog and link up, we are growing by leaps and bounds! We do have so much fun! I'm starting my pinkness with a pretty vintage post card. Please feel free to click on the pic to get a larger and better view.
I'm just thrilled to show you this beautiful Southern Belle Pin Cushion Doll. I purchased her from my Pretty Romantic Homes Sister Vickie of Visuals by Vickie. You can go here to see her web-site and all her beautiful treasures!
Some close ups.
Miss Vickie was so sweet she sent me these two little vintage poodle pins. My Aunt had poodles and when I see one I think of her.
Today I went to a little flea-market in town and found some really cute vintage treasures. The journal in the backgournd was not at the flea market, that was made by my friend Rhea and I will showcase that next week on my Pink Saturday post. 
I got these salt/hat pin holders for $1.00 each. The aqua sugar bowl was only $3.00. It's not pink but I thought I would show you all my goodies from today's shopping trip.
Some closeups.
Look at how pretty this aqua glass is, I think I'm going to paint the lid pale pink and put some mini pink carnations in it.
This pretty bowl is really shabby but I loved it anyway. My friend Rhea had a good idea, she suggested making it into a pincushion.
Well that's it for all my pinkness, now on to an award.

Now on to more mussings, I had been looking for a new floor lamp for my upstairs sitting room for some time. At times I sit up there and look through my cross stitch, craft & decorating books. I could not find what I wanted but found the one below that was just perfect for my living room. So I bought that one and painted the old one that was in my living room and put that upstairs.
A few close ups.
Below is the old lamp, I painted it white and put crystals on it then purchased a new lampshade. It's perfect for the room upstairs.
When it comes to cross stitch, I have two hobbies! Cross stitching and collecting books! I can set up here for hours just looking through books.
The base of this lamp is pretty too and it lights up.
Last saturday we spent the day on the lake in the boat. We live only five minutes from the beautiful Stonewall Jackson Lake and Resort.
We stopped a bit and watched this busy little beaver.
The next two pics are some things I picked up in a thrift store, I plan on redesigning them into cottage treasures and selling them on a Flea Market Friday.
Last pic is an adorable set of vintage filet crochet of cats and cherries. Just fell in love with it! They will go upstairs in my sitting room. Lots of red & cherries up there.
Well that's it for this post, I enjoyed having you! Please leave a comment, I love hearing from you!Blessings, Shirl
