I'M SHOWING WHAT I'VE GOT and
I'M TELLING YOU WHERE I GOT IT!!!

I have a crazy busy week ahead of me with a long, long list of pretties I'm ready to create, plus I need to get ready for "Pink Friday", so I thought I would get a head start on
SHOW and TELL Monday.

Everyone who knows me, knows how much I love pretties. I want to share some of them with you and let you know where you can get them too!



I was so lucky to snag this beautiful pink, vintage "glove box" from Michelle at "Rose Petals and Blooms". Lots more pretties to choose from there.



Almost every week I find something I just "have to have" from Lori at "Katies Rose Cottage". I especially love her "forget-me-nots" and her beautiful "charms". I made some of them into bookmarks for Christmas presents.


Completely created by hand, Christine from "Extra Sprinkles" designs these beautiful roses and uses them on many different surfaces. Everything from frames to ornaments. If you love this tussie mussie, I think there is one left on her website!


I absolutely adore these Large and Lovely, Cottage Gift tags made by Theresa at "Cottage Violets". She is one of the most amazing ladies I've come to know. Her website is chock full of fun. Stop by and get to know her and her friends. You'll love it there.

I'll be posting more treasures soon. I hope you enjoyed your visit.

PRINCESS GABRIELLA TURNS 3 1/2


Princess Gabriella (my next door neighbor) is a little over 3 1/2 years old and it's high time she moves out of the "Winnie the Pooh" decor and into the "Glamour Girl" bedroom. After painting her bedroom walls a 'high stylin' bright Purple she had Mom paint her toy box Bright Pink (one of my very favorite colors, just in case you didn't know).

Well in her very sweet and tiny voice (sometimes!), Princess Gabriella asked Cathy if she would please paint her toy box something pretty and very girly. I was more than happy to oblige.




Yesterday Gabriella's toy box received lots of beautiful roses which danced over the top, front and sides of her beautiful, 'Big Girl' toy box, then Fairies and Glitter (of course!) were added for the final touch. It was a big hit. She is just "Tickled Pink" with her new toy box from Cathy's "Glitz and Glam" station.

Finis!
