HAPPY PINK SATURDAY

I thought I would share some really cute pretties with all of you on this lovely Pink Saturday. With Spring right around the corner, there will be weddings, parties, picnics, home redecorating, and lots of ways to pretty up your environment. I've shared some lovely items which would add a little punch of color to your home or cottage. My favorite is the beautiful Mermaid French Florist bucket. I made two this week. One with a mermaid and one for the new bride. I love the way they turned out.

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend. Enjoy your Pink Saturday visits.

Way to go, Octavia Spencer! Congratulations for winning an Oscar!

It's Monday already... Wow the weeks are flying by. I stayed up way to late last night watching the Oscar's. I really love Billy Crystal and thought he was great, as always. A little disappointed that Viola Davis didn't win Best Actress, but hey how can you complain when Meryl Streep took it? She is the ultimate actress of all time. I had also hoped that "The Help" would have received more awards and that the Academy had spread the love around a bit. It's so much better when all the movies receive at least one award, but it looks at though "The Artist" swept them away. It must have been quite a movie. I'll have to catch it when it comes on cable! lol

I'm sharing a new creation with you today. I hope you like her. A stunningly lovely and quite large Altered Art Apothecary Bottle. She can be a pretty Southern Belle, Marie Antoinette, Madame dePompadour, or Cinderella. Whatever floats your boat.
You can find her HERE.

LEFTON CHICK LOVE

How sweet is this Easter Chicky centerpiece. One of my "original" creations. The base is a yellow bunny pedestal dessert plate adorned with vintage lace around the edges. A sweet vintage Lefton Chick is the focal point along with a 1917 vintage ephemera Easter Postcard backdrop. Silk hydrangea in light green and light blue along with pastel eggs, a rhinestone floral brooch, and a large strand of green glass beaded trim all add the perfect adornments to this "one-of-a-kind" Easter creation.

How perfect for your Easter table or your decorated sideboard. The blue and yellow have become two of my favorite color combinations. They compliment one another and look perfect amongst your other pastel spring decor. Available now at Treasured Heirlooms.

HAPPY PINK SATURDAY

JEESH, this week flew by. I hope I'm not the only one who thought so! I am a bit out of sorts these days with the weather here in New England. The weather greatly affects my emotional and physical well being. It has been really strange having no snow all winter. Although I am so happy I didn't have to worry about shoveling, the plants and trees need water. No doubt the city will put a stop to anyone trying to water their gardens this summer. Then again, when we have such sunny, warm winters we usually end up with dreary, wet summers. I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

Valentine's Day came and went in a flash. Poof and it was over. A lovely friend of mine sent me a sweet package in the mail. I forgot to take photos of the outstanding chocolate cupcakes with buttercream frosting before I ate all six. Yup I ate them all in a jiffy. They were small cupcakes though! It was a joy to have such a pretty package sitting outside my front door when I came home from my errands around town. I think the best part was having someone think about me when I least expected it. Isn't that always a joy. My friends are my family and I truly do love them. So if you are one of my dear friends, I thank you for being there.

Here are a few pretties I've added to the shop this week. Enjoy!

HAPPY WEDNESDAY EVERYONE

Thank you for dropping by my blog to see what's new. The weather for Massachusetts has been sunny and warm (if you consider between 38-50 degrees warm). I know we do here in the middle of January. Usually we are buried under 2 or 3 feet of snow if not more, but thankfully the few inches that fell this weekend already melted.

I have been having a wonderful time getting ready for spring. Spring cleaning has already begun. The attic treasures are finally being sorted through (been meaning to do this for years) and being posted on my websites. Everything from antique jewelry to vintage clothing, lovely figurines to awesome baby planters. You name it, I've probably got it. So it's all coming your way. I figure I should be done listing new product by Christmas 2012! LOL

I am also working on absolutely gorgeous Easter Ephemera and new Spring Wreaths. I'll let you know when they are ready for new homes. In the meantime, enjoy your day and have fun window shopping. To visit any one of my four websites. Two are on the left of my blog (just click on the icons) and the other two are on Etsy (just click on the right sidebar)
