Pink Saturday

Happy Pink Saturday friends. It finally came, SPRING IS HERE!!!! WHOO HOO!!!! My hyacinths were just beautiful this year, and my redbud is blooming and all my daffodils. And that puts me in the Easter decorating mood. So I am showing you today some of my little Easter decor.

Sweet Mr and Mrs Bunnies.

These are some plastic eggs I covered with musical paper pieces and decorated with flowers and ribbons. These are from last year but I still love them. So easy peasy to make too. Just Elmers and little pieces of paper.

This sweet little bunny may be one of my favorites, so sweet!

And who doesn't love baby chicks? I do, they remind me of my childhood on the farm in Wakita. We had baby chicks every year.

This is my Easter Candy Bar that I decorate with each holiday. I love it. If you cant figure out the fluffy thing with the hat, its a chicky also in an egg.

I'm not done decorating yet, because I got sick with an upper respiratory infection and have been in bed sick most of the week. Feeling better today and I get to go to a tea at my daughter Tammys home in the morning. I made scones and lemon curd to take. She always has the best tea parties for me and my Mom. I look forward to them because she makes them so special. Be sure to check out her site here and see some of her homemade decorations for Spring. They are so cute!!!

Thanks Beverly for hosting this Pink Saturday session, be sure to visit her here. I am also linking up with Show and Tell Friday at My Romantic Home and Marketplace Monday.

Have a great weekend,

NESTS

What do you do when you have lots of beautiful ribbon, paper and embellishments and a great inspiration?

The inspiration being BIRDS!!!!

You make crafts like these.........! My daughter Tammy and I had a craft day last weekend and she was decorating her home with bird decor so it inspired me to do something with birds in mind also, so this is what I came up with. A banner spelling out "NEST".

"N"

"E"

"S"

"T"

Then I threaded tulle through each one to hang and added a ribbon to each end. This is not the actual one I made at Tammy's house, I gave that one to her, but I liked it so well, I made another one. I will be listing it on Etsy probably tomorrow. If you would like to see the one I made Tammy and see all her birdie creations, please visit her here and see what beautiful things she has to show you!!! She is one talented lady.

On another day I decorated this cute little match box for an Easter treat, think I will put this on Etsy also.

The little chick looking up is looking at the butterfly I added for her.

And I have to have some pink in my post for my PINK SATURDAY post. So I am showing you this cute little birthday card I made with pink check paper with seafoam green inside. I love making cards.

This is the inside of the card. Who wouldn't love to receive a handmade card.

I'm all about CUPCAKES!!!

Hope you enjoyed my little post, now I am off to go blog hopping and visit all of you and see what surprises you are offering up for me!!

I am also linking this post up to White Wednesday and Show and Tell Friday.

Using My Good Stuff

I am joining Karla's Link Party of using our best instead of hoarding it for something special. I keep my very best embellishments in one of these pretty jars. Isn't it funny how you collect all this to use and then you don't?

But I did use this darling frozen charlotte I purchased from Karla. I used her idea and made a fairy charlotte out of her and put in a peat pot. But I'm keeping this one. I don't have much access to the F.C.'s and love this.

Another itty bity frozen charlotte I bought from Karla stands up tall on a pin cushion I made. So sweet. The Charlotte's are precious to me.

She needs some fairy wings doesn't she?

And I have started using my favorite ear bobs and buttons I have been saving for just that special something. Well, I have been making flowers with them and love how they look. They are for the hair, a purse, or bag, or just pin on your favorite t-shirt or jacket.

I will let you browse through the rest of my flowers without talking........!

Very pretty.

Well this is just some of the things I have embellished with my "best". Can't wait to see all the other bloggers contributions. You can either get to Karlas party by clicking on her button on my right top sidebar or the link at the top of my post.

It's a Pink Saturday SCORE!!

Hello my sweet friends!!! I have the PINKS to show you this week and I will start with this extra ordinary sweet pink hat I scored at my local Emporium Antique store for only, can you believe, $8.95? I promise, that is what it cost. Isn't it the sweetest hat you have ever seen? To me it looks

like a rose. Can't you just see that on some little lady setting in church on Easter morning. Oh I wish I could see a picture of whoever owned this sweeeeet hat!

I am displaying it on my tea table, all dressed up and ready for you all to come to tea with me!!! Wouldn't that be FUN!! You are all invited.

And a close up of the little buds all around the bottom of the hat. Sweet!

AND..... I wanted to show you what I did with a tablecloth I had made a couple of years ago out of some purchased material. I was looking through my stash of leftover material the other day and noticed I had some of the same fabric, hmmmmm, just enough for a RUFFLE around the bottom and you see how it turned out. I love it!! So romantic with ruffles.

So easy to do, yet such a difference. I may just start putting ruffles on everything I can!! LOL

And I have been in my studio, (doesn't that sound distinguished?) LOL, well anyway my craft room making some more Easter egg hangers. I will probably put this on my Etsy in the next day or so.

And what is Pink Saturday without one of my sweet little pink tea cups and roses. Loved this picture so just had to add it too.

The weather in Okla. last week has been so nice I have been walking every day I can but tomorrow it is suppose to be back in the 30's so guess Winter is still here.

Thank you Beverly for hosting this Pink Saturday and be sure to visit all the other Pink ladies on her blog How Sweet The Sound.
