It's Pink Saturday!



Hi Fellow Pink Saturday girls,

Its been a while since I came to the party.  Life has just been rather crazy, but I'm sure any woman reading this can relate.  Anyway, I thought I'd share with you something pretty and pink from my neck of the woods.  This fabulous antique silk petit point and jeweled frame purse is something that I purchased a while back.  It is such a stunning piece, I just had to show it to you.  It is pristine and oh, so pretty, with its little personalized initials showing it was "For MR From JP".  Someone must have really cared for the person they had it made for.  There is not a stitch missing and THAT FRAME!  Oh my... Anyway, I kept it for a few weeks before I sold it over at Our Cottage Garden because I just needed to love on it for a while before it found a new home.  I hope you enjoy it.  Of course, I would be remiss in my shopkeeping duties if I didn't mention that we have new listings of beautiful vintage things EVERY NIGHT at Our Cottage Garden.  Pop on over and check it out sometime.  You'll be glad you did! 





Once you are finished ooohing and aaahing over this divine purse, go on over to Beverly's at How Sweet the Sound and see the plethera of other Pink Saturday posts.  And get a cup of coffee or tea and settle in...you are gonna be there for a while absorbed in a pile of pink goodness and some very nice ladies.  And by the way, October is Breast Cancer Awareness month.  Don't forget to take care of "your girls".

Also, check back here on November 1st.  I will be having a wonderful giveaway that you won't want to miss.

Until next time,
Pin It!

    Hi Judy,
    Just as I was oohing and awwing over your header and those lucious pillows.....I then did the same thing over this wonderfully sweet purse. I just love the initials. I would have a hard time giving it up too.

    hugs

    Hi Judy, What a gorgeous purse, I don't know how you can let such pretty things go, it would be too hard, I would become a big hoarder:-)) The signed bottom is priceless, too endearing!
    Happy Pink Saturday!

    Hi Judy~
    The purse is so wonderful - thank you for sharing. Glad it found a good home. I too am from Colorado and live in a small rural community. It was fun to meet a fellow Pink Saturday girl from Co.
    Blessings,

    Happy Pink Saturday, Judy. I am so glad you decided to join us again.

    Girl, the minute I read you put that book on your site, I flew over. But alas, I'm too late. It is absolutely exquisite. You have such beautiful things.

    Oh, this is truly an amazing bag. I love petit point, and the colors in this are lovely. I don't know how you could stand to part with it, but someone is going to be very happy, indeed!

    XO,

    Sheila :-)
