PINK SATURDAY & GiveAway Winner

Saturday greetings to my pink loving bloggerdoodle buddies!I'm participating in Pink Saturday this week and send a big bouquet of thank you's to Beverly of
HOW SWEET THE SOUND
for hosting the pink party each week!!
But before I proceed to the pinkness I'm announcing the winner of my Christmas In July Stocking GiveAway :-) There were 397 entries and the winning number picked from my popcorn bowl was 381 . . . Sandy of Romantique Inspirations. Congratulations Sandy! Please contact me with your shipping information and I'll have her ready to go!


I collect antique mohair teddy bears and this girl always makes me smile! Doesn't she have a sweet funny face and big ears! She is about 100 years old and I've always had her wearing this baby bonnet, handmade knitted bib with pink ribbon and embroidered flowers and crocheted pink booties. She has always been selfconcious of her big feet and doesn't realize that is a GOOD thing with old teds!



Well now . . . she could almost fit her feeties in this pink vintage baby shoe planter but they sure would hurt!

Here is a sweet pillow previously sold on ebay featuring an adorable pink rose stripe fabric, vintage doily with cutout center to frame the bouquet of handmade pink ribbon roses!

Something a little different - but sweet and pink! An antique pink enamel child's chamber pot! See the pretty hand painted daisies and violets . . . when ya gotta go it's nice to go in style - hehe


A trio of dainty pink velvet vintage millinery roses simply displayed in a shabby white gesso decorated frame and a bit of vintage lace.

And the last items to showcase today are a pair of previously sold door hanger sachets aka Door Charmers! Long and lean featuring vintage lady images, lace and of course handmade pink ribbon roses! Perfect for displaying on a door knob or anywhere you please . . . more of these coming soon :-)
Thank you for sharing a part of your day with me and hope to see you again soon!
Pink Hugs and Smiles,

Lynn

  2. Ohhhhh..what a ~sweet~ girlie bear. I bet if she could talk, she would say "Make Mine Pink".

  4. LOVE LOVE LOVE all your pinks. You make beautiful items. The pillow and door hangers are gorgeous.

    The chamber pot is interesting. I never realized they were decorated like that. But I suppose if you were going to keep a pot in the corner of the room, you'd want it to be a pretty pot, huh?

    LOVE the bear. She definitely has aged well!! She doesn't look 100.

    Have a lovely day,

  7. You certainly made Teddy irresistible even though she's 100 year old.

    OH MY GOD.... I DIDN'T EVEN NOTICE UNTIL I WENT UP THERE AGAIN AND NOTICE MY NAME.... I'M CRYING I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS.... Ok I need to calm down somewhat.... I still can't believe it. I'm so excited Lynn it's hard to concentrate what I was going to comment about. Oh I'm really surprised!!

    I'm so glad your blogging and that I was able to meet you and have a face to the ebay seller you are.

    I finding it real hard to comment now, but to let you know I enjoyed looking at your pink pretties today and so delighted I have won!

    Thanks you So Much!! (Give me a moment and I'll get with you concerning the mailing address.)

  15. Your teddy did make me smile, I just love the booties and bib. Made me think of the times I used to dress my cat in booties, bonnet and a cardigan, can I possibly say....oh yes why not, I was in my twenties when I did this...hehehe. I will explain, I was told I would never have children and I now look back and realise it was my 'wanting so desperatly to be a mum' coming out.... poor cat. I defied the odds and had three children, so never say never.

  19. Love your post and especially love the bear. I have a collection of bears too in different sizes. I use mine for decorations on my breakfast room table. I dress them in different outfits to match the occassion. I enjoy them and they make adorable centerpieces for back to school, etc.
