Welcome to Pink Saturday! Hosted by Beverly at http://howsweetthesound.typepad.com/my_weblog/. Stop by and check out all of the wonderful Pinkness that is posted this week. The dishes above belong to my wonderful husband, so I am planning on keeping them. I love the pinks, browns and blues in the pattern. I really love the little birds that are scattered throughout the scenes. I think this set would be great at Thanksgiving.
I love, Love, LOVE Susan Branch! Her books are so cheerful and the illustrations make me smile. There are some really good recipes in this book!
This is a Brighton tin. They make the most wonderful costume jewelry in the world. Each piece comes in its own very special tin. I have tons of them and use them to store beads, pins and other little tidbits of treasures. When I travel on the motorcycle, I use one to keep my earrings,watch and bracelets safe.
Sorry, this is not a very good picture. It is Philosophy's Amazing Grace perfume. I love the clean fresh scent, just right for just a hint of fragrance. And I love the delicate pink color!
Now to the most wonderful of pink! I am giving away one of these beautiful pink and green strawberry pin cushion! They are handmade by Kimber Van Heukelom. She does the most gorgeous hand work. I just cant decide which one to keep! She even added some really wonderful pink pins. Kimber takes orders and if you would like to order directly her email address: tkhook@msn.com They are $10.00 each and worth every penny. Such a great addition to your sewing box!To enter this giveaway please leave a comment and mention that you would like to enter to win the pink pin cushion. That is all you have to do! If you do not have a blog, I need an email address to contact you. I will announce the winner on Friday, Feb.13th! Good luck to everyone!
Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend! Please keep Becky and her family in your prayers. They have lost a most precious son.
Hugs,
Lorri

Those dishes are to die for! I bet you can set a gorgeous table with them. Glad to see I'm not the only one who saves Brighton tins for trinkets! The little strawberry pin cushions are are so darling. What a lot of work to hand sew those and how sweet to include the pink pin!

Hi Lorri!
I adore the dishware. So lovely and so very feminine.
I'll have to try the perfume you have. I'm allergic to all floral but can tolerate fruity and fresh scents.
I'm a Brighton girl, so I do know what you mean about their jewelry. I have most of the charm bracelets in my collection!
Oh..and please, I'd love to enter the pin cushion giveaway!
Have a great Pink Saturday!
Deanna :D
Hi Lorrie~

Happy Pink Saturday and please enter me in your give-away! Those strawberries are so delightful! And I love all your pink as well. Don't you just love Brighton? I have several of their tins and treat myself to one new handbag a year.

Please enter me in your pin cushion give away.

About my recipe book. The notebooks that I have selected have a front sleeve to insert a cover page. What I have been doing is going through all of my family photos and putting aside those where either the boys or I were in the kitchen or eating anywhere, even picnics. Then I'm going to make a collage of the pictures for an 8" by 10" format and have that printed either at Walgreen's or Wal-Mart.
Voila! All I'll have to do is slip it in the sleeve for even more nostalgia for the kids! Please keep in touch. I'd like to know how your progress is moving along on your book, too!
Hugs, Mimi
Great pinks...I love Susan Branch books!
Please throw my name in the sewing basket for the cute pink cushion.
Thank you!
