Vintage Linens & Hankies for Pink Saturday

YEAH!! It's my favorite time of the week....It's PINK SATURDAY!! Can ya guess why I love it ? Well, it's because I LOVE PINK, lol!! Betcha you'd never guess that in a millions years :) Be sure to thank BEVERLY at HOW SWEET THE SOUND, for hosting this fabulous Pinkalicious Party every week!

Reminder: You have just one week left to enter my Christmas In July Giveaway...just leave a comment HERE to be entered.

This week I thought I would show you some of my pretty Vintage Linens and sweet hankies, that have either pink or pink roses in/on them.

First up is this lovely set of vintage towels with gorgeous cross stitched pink roses. This is my favorite set!




Here is a close-up of one of them....



This towel has a lovely pink appliqued rose and rosebuds....



Pretty soft and delicate colors on this one....



These next 4 photos are of some lovely vintage hankies with embroidered roses, and one that is a simple soft pink linen with crochet edging....






And lastly, of course, I just had to show you my newest pillows that I have currently listed on Ebay..... you can see them also on my right sidebar, with links to those listings if you'd like to check them out. You can also click on any of these 3 pictures below to enlarge them if you'd like.

This pretty pink long style pillow is the last one of this particular type that I will be making, so if you missed out on the first one that I created, here is your last chance to get one!





Thanks so much for stopping by to see my pretty pinks for this week. Be sure to stop on over to Beverly's to see all the other wonderful blogs featuring their pinks for you all to see!

Blog Changes & New Door Hanger Pillows

Hi Everyone! Well, as you can see, I've done some changes with my blog, and am using Bloggers new Template Disigner. I've been wanted to change over to a 3 column blog for quite a while, and today I have finally taken the plunge, so to speak. I'm pretty much happy with it.

I've been VERY busy in my sewing room these past few days, as you can see below the photos of what I have been working on. These are some pretty Door hanger Sachet Pillows, and I used different Images of pretty Victorian ladies on each one, with pretty rose prints, and lots of lovely embellishments.

This first one I just finished a few minutes ago, and haven't yet put it on Ebay, but keep an eye out for it as I will be listing sometime today with a BUY-IT-NOW price.



This one is now currently available, and you can click on the picture to the right on my sidebar to take you to that listing.



This lovely lady just sold earlier today, and will be going to a lovely lady in the United Kingdom. Gosh, my pillows get to travel all over the world, but not me :(

It's "Tea" Tuesday Time Ladies!!

Hello Ladies! It's "Tea" Time Tuesday here again in Blogland, and I will be participating in these Tea parties this week:

Teacup Tuesday at Martha & Terri's Blogs
Teapot and Tea Things Tuesday over at Pam's blog,
And Tea Time Tuesday at Sandi's blog.
So be sure to stop on over and say hello to these lovely ladies!

Also, my Christmas in July Giveaway is still going on, so be sure to go to that post, which you can do HERE, to leave your comment to be entered for it :)

Below is the vignette I have set up for this weeks featured Teacup. Ain't it cute!




Instead of a regular teacup this week, I am instead featuring this beautiful little Demitasse cup and saucer. Sadly, there is no makers mark on either the cup or saucer, but I would guess it to be from Germany. The roses on it are just so lovely, don't you think.



Next is this gorgeous Vintage Teapot. It too does not have any makers mark. I bought this about 3 years ago while hubby and I were out antiquing with some relatives. It does have a crack on the backside of it, which doesn't bother me much, as I use it only for display, and I just had to have it because it has PINK in it, lol! And I love the shape of it too.



I've placed it on top of this vintage crystal candleholder with these wonderful drippy prisms, and below is a lovely handmade paper rose by my friend Rhonda.



Here is a lovely vintage spoon....love the details on this!



A sweet Vintage victorian gift book titled "Life's Roses" (I'll have to show you the gorgeous rose pictures inside some Pink Saturday!), and 3 sweet little faux petit fours by, you guessed it, Rhonda :)



And lastly, this GORGEOUS wreath just full of pretty pink roses!



Yes, I MUST show you a couple of lovely pillows that I have just finished working on~which includes this first one I gave you a sneek peek on a couple of posts back :)

Update: This pillow is now available on Ebay.



And this Romantic long style pillow....done a bit differently than the previous long pillows I've shown before. This one is done in just pretty pink and white! It is currently now listed on Ebay with a Buy-it-Now price.

Update: This pillow is now sold.



Thanks again for stopping by my little 'ole Blog :) Now go on over and stop by to visit all the lovely ladies participating in all the wonderful Tea parties that are going on now :) Have a great "Tea" Tuesday everyone!!

Warmest hugs, Brenda
