Pink Saturday! (I'm late)

Happy Pink Saturday and I'm late posting again! LOL! Click on the pretty china girl to take you to a list of other bloggers posting their pinkies! And, once again, thank you to Beverly for hosting this pink extravaganza!


WOW! This means that my last three posts have been Pink Saturday! LOL! Blogging has been low on my priority list these days. Here are my contributions for today, again, found on my travels through Ebay-land. Enjoy!!

Isn't this crinoline scrumptious!!!!

I would SO wear these vintage shoes! Alas, not my size :-(

I would so NOT wear these.
Did people really wear these atrocious disco shoes???
Too funny!!!!!

Pink Saturday...

Don't forget to visit Beverly at How Sweet the Sound for more pinkaliciousness!

Pink Saturday!

Well, I have missed the last two PS's. including the 1year anniversary! Where have I been? Slacking, of course. Not really... we had some glorious weather so we spent most of our time in the yard. This past week has been rainy and cold. Yuck.

On to Pink Saturday. I don't have much to share this week. Just a few oddments.


I found the most luscious pink spray paint! Pink has now officially migrated to the yard, much to MDH's chagrin. I painted these pot hangers to hang my white baskets full of pink portulaca.





I've been bugging MDH to let me get a tiny chihuahua. Yeah, just call me Paris. We have two dogs already, but a girl can dream. In the meantime I found 'her' a sweet basket and baby blankies to wrap her up in when I get her. Wishful thinking!




Found these sweet vintage playing cards on Ebay. Pink roses!




And here is my little pot of sweet impatiens. The perfect shade of pink :-)



Please visit sweet Beverly, our Pink Hostess for this weeks list of Pinkies! Enjoy!

Been away from Blogland for awhile. Been busy working in the yard, but we did manage to hit some yard sales and thrift stores on Saturday!




Got this pretty Homer Laughlin platter, an address book for my purse and a birdhose for my collection...


a sweet chippy pink picture frame, a couple vintage kitchen things, vintage hangers from old Dry Cleaners, two sweet tiny rosy saucers.....


an awesome old shortening can...



two vintage refrigerator dishes...


this awesome shelf...



a Victorian greenhouse/terrarium..for 2.00!



two cute little planters...

four new gnomes for the yard...




this is my new gardening hat....




and the last awesome thing.....

an antique bed for ......................8.00!!! It's in awesome, sturdy shape, and I plan to paint it a creamy white for the new guestroom. I'm still in shock that it was so cheap!!!



and what great thrifty goods did you find over the weekend???

My new favorite blog....

and they have a STORE as well!!!

I won!

I LOVE getting goodies in the mail! I rec'd a sweet package from Caren and Ashley of Kdottie Designs! I "helped" name their new carousel horse and my name was announced as a co-winner this post.

Inside the cute "dottie-d" tissue paper was a package of darling napkins (too cute to use), and a little vintage-style keyhole lock-shaped wall hanging. Sweet! Thanks gals!

Another new bird!

We had another new bird on the sunflower seed feeder today!

He's a Black-headed Grosbeak! Not a great picture, as I had to sneak up on him! He's got a seed in his mouth! Cute! Prior to seeing him, there was another bird on the feeder that I didn't recognize, but it flew away before I could get a photo. Come to find out, it was probably his mate because it was a female!

This is a photo from the internet, but that's her!! Sweet!


We also have a couple of sweet tiny Yellow Warblers hanging around, but they are too quick for me!! Here's what they look like...

Itty bitty things! I LOVE bird watching!!
