Happy Pink Weekend!

Hi everyone and welcome to Pink Saturday hosted by Beverly.

Today, I am sharing some pink that I have gathered together and next week I will show you what I did with it.




I enjoy crafting and I love hydrangeas, whether they are real, dried, or faux. One can do so much with them!


I have had my SnowBaby display out all winter on my mantel. It's time to put them to bed for another season.


Spring is coming and pink and posies and birdies are calling me!


Are you working on anything for Spring?


I also received these linen tea towels in the mail today from Northern Ireland. I was asked to do a review on them. Aren't they pretty? Lots of pink here!


I will let you know what I think of them.

I love quotes. I came across this quote some time ago and I wanted to share it with you today.

" People are like stained-glass windows. They sparkle and shine when the sun is out, but when the darkness sets in, their true beauty is revealed only if there is a light from within." ~ Elizabeth K. Ross

Thanks for visiting today. Do drop by Beverly's How Sweet The Sound to see lots more of this luscious colour. Have a delightfully pink weekend everyone!

Sharing from my heart~ Sandi

    Hi Sandi,
    Those tea towels are so beautiful! I love hydrangeas, too. They're one of my favorite flowers - fresh, faux or dried! Can't wait to see what you do with them!

    How could anything from Ireland be but the best ... the towels are gorgeous! So is your decor, Sandi.

    I hope you will pop by to help us bring 'angel love' for a young girl who is sick.

    Thank you.
    Have a beautiful PS weekend ~

    Hello Sandi,

    Your flowers are very pretty and spring-like. I have some lovely spring faux flowers, too. They look real and last all year.

    The tea towels are lovely. I like the colors.

    Blessings,
    Marianne

    I am a pink girl. Just love how it can give most things an unexpected lift. I adore those irish tea towels. I just opened a pack of three linen tea towels yesterday that my SIL gave me a few years ago. Since she gave them to me I have just been admiring their cuteness and didn't feel inclined to use them straight away mainly because they even had their own ticking and vintage button belly band.

    Hi Sandi, love the quote and the tea towels are so cute! I have been putting out quite a bit of Spring decor. Mother Nature must have not seen it though. She brought us 4 to 5 inches of new snow this morning. Excited to see what you do with your pinks!
    Hugs,

    Hi Sandi,

    My heart is singing right now. What a gorgeous Pink Saturday post. The photos make me wish it was spring here in New England, but unfortunately we have a few months of chilly weather yet.

    Thank you for reminding me of the beauty of flowers. It warms my heart.

    HPS, Cathy

    You tease us! :) I love hydrangeas too and as soon as the rabbits are put away my hydrangeas come out for the summer. Today I put away the Nordic front porch (think sleds and snow) and replaced with the old rabbit statue. I'll do some more tomorrow. HPS and hope you have a wonderful weekend.

    oh those tea towels put mine to shame! What am I working on? I guess garden planning- so many seeds, not enough space for all of them!

    Nice quote~ I have two hydrangeas growing in the backyard...last year I got blossoms from them that were 12 inches across! I dried them and they are displayed in a pitcher in the kitchen :)

    I can't wait to see what you do with the hydrageas!
    I know it will be lovely.
    I used to have many dried bunches of them hanging from my ceiling :-)
    Those Irish tea towels are very pretty - almost too nice to use by the looks of them!
    A happy Pink Saturday weekend to you too, my friend.
