~PINK, PINK and more PINK..~

Thank you to our hostess Beverly at HOW SWEET THE SOUND for giving us the chance to show off our PINKS every Saturday.





Our cozy little guest room. I love it. I thought it would be perfect for Pink Saturday. It is probably my favorite room in the house. My guests love it and it makes a cozy place to curl up with a good book undisturbed. And...it is PINK!


Yes...I know one doesn't usually show ones toilet..but..it's pink..so I snapped it. I don't ALWAYS use good taste.

I love this. This is on my vanity in my bathroom and I used it for my makeup. When I travel I just pick it up and put it in my suitcase. It is an old tackle box. As are most of my pink items with roses..they are handpainted by a dear friend of mine that sells her things on ebay. Relics and Roses..I probably may have mentioned her before. I love her work..

Another artist did this little telephone. It works beautifully and of course is old but NOT that old. I just like it.

I missed the deadline as I didn't know there was one. I'm sorry, Beverly. I will do better next week.

Well..now...that was fun! Hey..I am trying here! ~smile~

Have a wonderful weekend...I wish you love~
Mona

    Good morning, Mizz Mona..
    this bedroom is so so delightful. I didn't realize you love pink and roses that much. The bath is precious, too.
    I hope your Mother's Day is extra special...just like you!
    I'm getting ready for another part of your "story"...that was so much fun to read....just like a good book that you can't put down.

    You have a beautiful Blog! I was so very sad for you when I read what you wrote on A Stitch in Thyme's blog. I think you should be able to write what you want. It is YOUR blog. I am sorry to hear that. But keep up the good work! I love all your roses etc!

    OMG! Can you come paint my toidie seat lids like that ... they are exquisite. You are one heck of a fabulous decorator ... the other gal is right, write a book!

    If you aren't comfortable doing 'forums', so be it, Mona. Life is too short to have hassles rather than a fun time with blog friends.

    Have immensely enjoyed our 'chats'.

    You have a beautiful Mothers Day, my friend.

    bj...Well..I love the room and I love roses..but they are not in all of the house. The kitchen is deep reds and roosters etc.

    Balisha...Thank you! You have a rosy Mother's Day too!

    glimpseof my world...Happy Mother's Day back attcha! :)

    Susan...Yeah... :) those toilet seats are something..aren't they? LOL (got carried away with the roses thingy!)

    Sweet Cottage Dreams.... guests do get a kick out of it. Thinking of you, Becky!

    Smart Mouth Broad...A book? A book???!! Remember the last time I did any writing??! Naw..that's ok. Pictures are safer..LOL

    Joyce...Awww...I'm so glad you like that phone. You know..I didn't paint that. I do some painting but not roses like that! Oh how I "would that I could" as they used to say. :)

    Moondust Marita...Oh dear...well..the subject was on speaking your mind. I opted out. That's all.

    Marydon...thank you! :) I have enjoyed chatting with you also.

    Debbie...thanks..you are always so nice. No one I know is near the fires. Thank heavens.

    I missed this blog. And maybe others. I'll have to go back and see.

    Love this room. It's so pretty. We have such a tiny house and only have one bedroom. I wished we had a guest room too. Fun to fix up.

    Loved the toilet! HEE HEE. Do you paint all of the beautiful roses yourself? I love pink too. I will add you to my favorites list. Please check out my blog if and when you have a chance. I'm just starting out with my blog.

    Happy Mother's Day!

    How cute is a painted potty seat? Very, very clever. I love that idea and just may steal it! :-)

    Blessings and smiles,
