MY VERY FIRST....
PINK SATURDAY ....MAY, 2008
************
BEVERLY, my friend over at HOW SWEET THE SOUND
This beautiful, PINK book was given to me several years ago by
This OLD shaving mug, with the handle broken off
MR. SWEET bought this beautiful English plate for me about 10 years ago..
Isn't this the ugliest thing you've EVER seen andI PAID MONEY FOR THIS !!
What was I thinking and even more,
what WILL I ever do with it ??????
BEATS ME !!
OOPS, I feel a
PROMISED
that if she can come up with ANYTHING cute out of it,
HAHAHA...GOOD, GOOD LUCK, MO !!
*
My very favorite little plate from my mother....
One of the first quilts I made....
*
A favorite PINK flowered lamp from an estate sale...
The VASE holding these PINK flowers was another treasure from my mother.
And, finally....
MY PINK PIN MONEY BANK
*****************
Many thanks to BEVERLY for this fun
SATURDAY
hugs, bj

Miss BJ,
I love that faceplate for the doorknob. Put a pretty hook on it and hang it on the wall with an apron hanging off of it! Just sayin'....

Hi bj
You were there right from the start. I loved reading your first pink post. You must be getting excited about your cruise! Please include me in your giveaway.
((hugs)) Rhondi
What a wonderful post! I love the English plate and the plate from your mother. They are both so pretty! And I would love to be entered in your giveaway!!
I do have one question... I recently bought a quilt top from ebay and my sister is going to show my how to put the back on it. Thank goodness because I would never be able to do it. But, I really want to learn to make an entire quilt on my own and am saving the girls baby clothes and my husbands shirts, so.... your first quilt, is it entirely handmade or did you use a sewing machine? I'm just curious. Thank you so much and I hope you have a wonderful time on your cruise!! I can't wait to see pictures!
-April
Oh BJ, I want to win! I will take the gift card, the quilt, the bank and the pink hickie-do that I don't even know what it is:) Have a blessed day my friend! HUGS!

Happy Pink Saturday! That was a great first pink post. I was wondering what happened to the item you sent MO? Love the plate and other old items. What's "pin" money? :) Thanks, Jenn
Awesome treasures, BJ ... the door plate is fabulous!

What a wonderful idea for a birthday post, reposting your very first Pink Saturday! I'm sorry I missed Beverly's big day, but I was so busy with graduation day. I'm enjoying visiting a few of my favorite Pink Saturday blogs today though.
Sherry @ A Happy Valentine
I was strollin' down memory lane with you, BJ, looking at all your cute Pink Saturday pretties, and then I came to the picture of the shabby pink door escutcheon.
I thought, "Wow! I love that piece!" Then I read your description of it "the ugliest thing you've ever seen" and started laughing.
Beauty truly is in the eye of the beholder.
I would love to have you join my three new linky parties. I just put the very first one up tonight, June 1st.
Hugs,
Liz @ the Brambleberry Cottage
