Pink Saturday Rolls Around Again


Happy Pink Saturday! I hope this finds you well...my second Pink Saturday appearance, thanks to Bev at "How Sweet the Sound" who is hosting this event. As I was taking pictures for an item to be put on Our Cottage Garden, I said to myself, "Self, wouldn't this painting be just ADORABLE for next week's Pink Saturday?" And apparently, Self thought it would, indeed, be adorable, so here it is for your perusal. It is a painting from a gal in my local area. She does really pretty and sweet little vignettes, among other things. I love the fancy kitty in the bottom left. Cats just seem to make a house a home, but that's probably a personal bias I have...I'm a Leo, born in the year of the Tiger, how could I NOT like cats?! But I digress. The painting was just so cute and, well, PINK! AND it had all those cozy elements like a big comfy couch, lamp, roses, and the aforementioned kitty. It evokes a smile when you look at it, doesn't it? I must admit, unlike lots of ladies, I don't think pink is the beat all to end all, but I do enjoy throwing it around here and there to inject a little femininity to my surroundings (much to my boys' chagrins). A TIP FROM THE QUEEN: I do tend to buy pink tools for myself because then my husband doesn't inadvertantly take my stuff and put it in his toolbox. A big man with a pink hammer would definitely have some SPLAININ' to do to his buddies! Hey! I just got some inspiration for next week's Pink Saturday post.

Until next time,

  2. Oh my, we do have lots in common---we're Leos, we love kitties and I also believe a cat makes a house a home, I don't have much in the way of PINK, and I think that idea of buying tools with Pink handles is the best one I've heard in a long time!!!

    Happy Pink Sat!

  13. Happy Pink Saturday, Judy. Pink isn't my favorite color either. My favorite is yellow.

    Love the painting. It looks like a cozy place for reading a good book.

  15. Sorry I'm so late in posting my comments...work has taken me on a few travels as of late...but now that I am able, I certainly wanted to "visit".

    Our cottage, The Painted Nest is not abundant in PINK (gasp, I know, LOL) nonetheless the fun continues, as I participated in this past Sat. Pink Posting... :)

    Happy to be here tonight...
    And congratulations "self" for a remarkable Pink post...I like it...very nice indeed!

  17. I adore the kitty. Who has a strong resemblance to my own white kitty.
    Picture those pink boots in a size 3... That's what my friends lil' girl was gifted from her brother. When he went to Texas.
    Yup, just as cute as you'd think.

  19. Hi Judy,
    That is just the cutest painting with that little kitty cat.

    I also wanted to thank you for your kind comment over The Vintage Journal. It's tough posting at another place other than "home" and appreciate your kindness ;)
