Happy Pink Saturday with How Sweet the Sound. A chance to go overboard loving pink!
I want to share a very pink teacup, and then some pink decorations from my home and from Country Living magazine that I like.
I just love this teacup...it is PINK! The pattern is called American Beauty and was made by Royal Albert, England in the 1940s. You can dive into that pink, can't you!!!!! For more on the teacup at Antiques And Teacups, click on the photos.
And here are a few pinks among my Christmas decorations:
One of a whole bunch of Victorian lace fans I made one year when we were living in an 1879 Victorian home in Redding, California. I trimmed them with ribbon and roses. The other is a mouth blown glass ornament with gold plated metal and gold braid made in the 1980s in West Germany.
A manger scene on a dining room server. We have had this for about 25 years, but it always has a place of honor. Pink on Joseph is interesting....
Now these are from Country Living, from a page sent to me on an email as I am a subscriber. These were my favorites. Great decorating ideas and just eye candy for Christmas!
This was a great wreath made out of mother of pearl buttons! I loved that idea!
How about Christmas stockings made from stiffened dressmaking patterns???
And for a white and recycling Christmas, a wreath made entirely of old newspapers!
Then there is the luxe look of combining all sorts of vintage mercury ornaments on a tray in a silver bowl.
I love the simple pinecone wreath being framed...suddenly a fine art statement!
A definte favorite because I love red...or as it's also called...pink transferware setting the scene for a vintage Christmas with panache!
Using a fancy silver serving tray as a table centerpiece with just a few chromatic ornaments.
Making room on the shelves for a Christmas statement with green wreaths among the winter palette.
What a great idea for the knitters out there!
Another silver utilization with vintage balls, beads and sparkles!
And lastly...a pink Christmas with pink flowers, bows and table accents.
Have a great time visiting the other Pink Saturday posts. It is so much fun!
