PINK SATURDAY Greetings AND a GIVEAWAY too

Hello Pink Lovers!
Welcome to Pink Saturday and a basket full of Thank you's go to Beverly of
HOW SWEET THE SOUND
for hosting it each week!! Clap Clap Cheer Cheer Yaaaaayyyyy!!
I went "shopping" around the house choosing some pretty pink things that I thought you may enjoy . . . hope you do :-)

I chose a vintage pink telephone - yes it works and has that great old timey REAL ring and the clickity click of the rotary dial. Note the original phone number - STanley8-7434 . . . I will never forget the number we had when I was a child - 867-5309 - on no wait - that's in one of the most popular 1980's songs Jenny by Tommy TuTone that still finds its way into my head after all these years HA! Anyway, our number was MOntrose8-8315 :-)

Also is a vintage Cashmere Bouquet Talcum Powder tin - still smells good too! A sweet card of tiny vintage pink childs buttons with the cutest graphic. I collect unused button cards and that's a good idea for another post I think!
Next is a cluster of vintage Made in Japan millinery roses in the perfect pink! I found dozens and dozens of these sweeties and they are perfect for my embellished bottles and sachets but I love to scatter them around here and there . . . and everywhere.
Here is a vintage purse that was a sweet find last summer at my favorite antique mall! I never leave there empty handed :-) It has a wicker base and is covered in yummy pink velvet roses and lots of other millinery flowers.
This photo shows 2 vintage pink Fenton pieces - an interesting soap dish with "picket fence" edging and I love the way it is almost clear towards the top. Inside are 4 really cute pink and rhinestone buttons.
A couple weeks ago I found 2 of the swirly vases with ruffly tops and they were a fabulous find at one of my favorite resale shops for 5.00 each.
I hope you enjoyed your stay and have fun visiting all the other Pink Saturday-ers :-)

If this is your first time at my blog please check THIS POST for details on my first GIVEAWAY that ends on May 29th! Its really really easy to enter :-)
Bye Bye for now but please come back again soon!

    Lynn,

    Glad to see you here for Pink Saturday!!

    I love that cute phone! I had an older cell phone that I programed to ring like that! My one friend always laughed when it rang because she said it reminded her of the "LUCY" show and she could just hear Desi saying "hello, lucy???" !!

    And that purse is so cute!! What a great idea to embellish any purse with!!

    Oh how fun! What wonderful pink things! I remember as a child thinking how SLOOOOOOOWWWWWW it was to call my grandmother...most of her phone number were 8's and 9's, and even a few 0's!!!!! talk about SLOW! My phone number I remember tooo!! Emerson 8-0259. I know I'll never forget that! I'll probably be sitting in a wheelchair in the nursing home some day drooling and murmuring 'emerson 8-0259, emerson 8..." They'll think I want my husband or something!!! Or worse, my husband will hear me and wonder who on earth Emerson was!!!!! Thanks for the memories!
    Blessings, Doni
