Pink Saturday

Hello and welcome to Pink Saturday hosted by Beverly of How Sweet The Sound.
Above I have a pic of some Flea Market finds from this past summer. The pretty Victorian looking ones on the left I thought I would make their little baskets into a pincushion, they were probably made to hold flowers. The little girl with dog is so pretty, the detail in it is just incredible. I paid $1.00 for each one. The cute little box has a powder puff with powder still in it.


Above is a pretty little birthday planter that I purchased at the same Flea Market. I think that was $1.00 also.

When my hubby and I travel I always do needlework because I hate the tractor trailers on the roads. (they drive way to fast). I'm always loosing my scissors so when hubby was cleaning out his drawers at work he brought this little thing home for me. It grips anything that lays on it and does a great job of holding my scissors and sunglasses, only problem was that is was not pink and pretty!!! So I made this cute little pink yoyo brooch to pretty it up. I make this brooches in all colors to put on my coats and totes.

Now it's pretty!!!!!!

This is one of my favorite little tea cups with a cottage window and hollyhocks!

Thank you so much for stopping by for Pink Saturday! It was so nice to visit with you. I hope everyone had a nice Thanksgiving, ours was wonderful! I'm getting my Christmas decorations out today and hope to do a few more posts this week with the last of Thanksgiving and start on some Christmas posts.

Have a great weekend and Happy Pink Saturday!

Blessings, Shirl

Pink Saturday

Hello and Welcome to Pink Saturday hosted by Beverly of How Sweet the Sound.

I'm out of town on a road trip but posted this before I left, if my post options took then you will be reading this! Hopefully it did! This week I made a few things and of course they were in pink so I thought I would show them to you today.

This tote below is made from a cross stitch that I had done years ago, the artist is Paula Vaughn. I just love all of her Victorian Designs! Be sure to click on the pic so you can get a larger view!

Another one that I made using a teddy bear cross stitch then I made the tote using 1930's repo print fabric.

Yoyo's are something that I love so I made a little cluster to embellish the tote with.

Then used a vintage button with a little bling in the middle!

A few more things I made this week, a lavender sachet, victorian needleroll sachet and yoyo pin.

I got this adorable Susan Branch fabric and made a few little tea towels.

A closeup of the cute fabric.

I made this lampshade years ago, I saw one in a high end gift shop and came home and made myself one, also some flowers and herbs from my garden in the little jadeite flower pot.

My favorite flower that is blooming in my garden is the highly scented stargazer lily!

Another victorian needleroll sachet with fresh lavender.

A little dresser top that has some pink and alot of things that I love.

Well that's it for my Pink Saturday Post, I hope you enjoyed, have a great week and stop back again.

Blessings, Shirl
