Party in the New Year in Pink

Here's the rest of my vintage party hats and blowers in pink!!! Hope you're doing something fun tonite!

Cupcake Ornaments

What to do with my pink cupcake ornaments after Christmas? Put them in my glass cake dish in my office!

Pink Vintage Treasure from Paulette

Paulette from http://cheerfulthriftydoor.blogspot.com/ sent me the most wonderful gift-6 vintage glasses and a revolving trivet tray-pink and fabulous. I still cannot believe the generosity and thoughtfulness from her-she visited my blog and saw that I LOVE pink items and had these and offered to send them to me. She wrapped each glass carefully in bubble wrap and a vintage napkin. She also sent me a wonderful Christmas card with a picture of her and her grandchildren. I wish I could meet her and hug her in person! I can't wait to display them! Thank you soooooo very much Paulette and I will be getting something to you soon!

Pink Dog Crate

See the other present my sis bought for me!!! I was so excited since I had looked at these on Amazon several times. She bought this off the facebook garage sale site-pretty neat! Maggie Mae will love it! So do I!

Craftsman Tool Tote

See what one of my items my little sis bought me for Christmas-Love, Love, Love it. Now I'm going to be looking for some pink tools to fill it. I bought a tool kit this past fall so I need to find out what I still need. And what projects I can tackle.....is that scary!

Pink Camo Dog Sweater

My co-manager bought me this pink camo sweater for Maggie Mae(she needs to loose a few pounds) and pink sharpie markers. Isn't she cute-can't wait to go camping!

Does he know me or what!!!

Merry Pink Christmas to You!!!

I hope you all are having a wonderful Christmas Day!!! I'm trying to concentrate on the reason for the season-the Birth of Jesus Christ! After a long, hard night of not enough sleep and awful thoughts(that I won't go into)-the only thing that really helps is knowing that Christ is always there. Merry Christmas to you all!

Pink Christmas Cookies

Someone went and brought Pink Christmas cookies yesterday and I couldn't resist grabbing a few-I did manage to leave a few pink ones for other people(but I didn't want to!!!!) Yummy!

Pink Santa Nutcracker

I've never been into nutcrackers but when I saw this one on-line-I had to have it. I love the pink santa .. and the wheels look just like candy...notice the pink candy cane

and the Santa license plate

Maybe my Santa comes on a motorcycle instead of a sleigh!

Vintage Child's Washing Machine

Here's the other washing machine I got last week on my birthday. I thought it was funny how I would find two-even though this one is extremely small. It was too cute to pass up for the price! I'm joining Pink Saturday at http://howsweetthesound.typepad.com/my_weblog/

Pink Pyrex-YEAH

I've seen so many pics on ebay, pinterest, and blogs with this pink pyrex that I couldn't seem to find anywhere! I found two pieces last Wednesday on my birthday antique trip and one yesterday! I think I've got a new collection-and they're all different pieces!

Cupcake Apron

Look what my girlfriend from Idaho sent me-it's even in a pink mailer envelope! She made this adorable pink cupcake apron(I have done a little baking-which is huge for me!)

It will go great with my cupcake oven mitt and kitchen towels!

Thanks Rachel!!!!

An Early Present

I came home yesterday beat down by mostly mad customers to find that my sister-in-law had sent home an early Christmas gift. What could be inside? Pink Large Vintage Christmas balls!!!! Does she know me or what? How fun and wonderful is that-in their original box!!!

Thanks Nancy!!!

Pink Sugar Cookies

This was what was waiting for me when I got home from work at 12:30 am last nite. My oldest niece and my mother had made these especially for a late night snack for me. ( I stayed at my mother's house since I didn't get off till midnite and had to be back at work at 7:30 the next day and live 30 minutes from work). What a sweet gesture since my days haven't been the most pleasant-people can be very rude and mean during the holidays-working retail is certainly challenging. Anyway, these really perked me up!

Pink Ringer Washer

Well here she is...my pink Birthday gift! My husband was like OH No you want that?! I said YES-I have to have it!!!! Where are you going to put it and what are you going to do with it he said? I don't know -but I love it! I'm joining Pink Saturday at http://howsweetthesound.typepad.com/my_weblog/

Pink Striped Child's Socks

Here's the first thing I found yesterday and it has a clue to the big item I bought. I found these laying on it! Can't wait to show you!

Pink Metal Ice Cube Trays

I had a great day antiquing today for my birthday. My husband drove 277 miles to take me to several new places. I didn't find any pink Christmas and I was a little disappointed about that, but will be posting some of my finds for the next few days. One item is so large we have to go back to get it-and it's pink-but you'll never guess what it is. I've never seen one like it and was so excited when I saw it. Anyway, I did pick these pink(I know they don't look pink, but they are!) metal frigidaire ice cube trays. They were only $1.00 each so I had to get them!

Pink Birthday Cupcakes

A good friend from work surprised me right before I left work and brought me these beautiful and yummy cupcakes. Pink of course with pink sprinkles and swirly roses and even an antique calling card in the middle! I LOVED it! Here she is -you've probably seen her before on this blog-Bre-multi-talented girl!

Thanks so much!

A Christmas house tour!

Last nite I was invited over to my friend from work's house-Here's Janice! From the outside to the inside she had pretties everywhere I looked!

Christmas tree in the parlor-she said these were purple lights-but I see pink!!! Her collection of churches

Tree in the living room-sorry it's a little blurry

One of her 3 fireplaces-love that old clock!

I had a wonderful evening visiting with her and just forgot to take more pictures. Everywhere I looked there was something decorated for the holiday-even the lampshades had bows!

Thanks for inviting me over!

1850's Christmas at the Rutherford House

I was in the parlor(of course in a pink dress!)

Caroline-my mother-in-law and the president of our organization The music was beautiful

Jane-our long-time treasurer-I didn't know she had this costume-so I told her she'd be wearing it more often-now that I knew!

Kathie-the organizer of the event-in a beautiful dress she made herself

Stringing Popcorn in the kitchen Reading bedtime stories upstairs(it was soooo cold up there!)

Playing games with the kids

A wonderful 1850's Christmas Time!

Pink Air Freshner

I know I'm going crazy-I'm buying Air Freshner with pink caps!!!

Pink Silicone Baking Pans

I've been searching for months trying to figure out where I saw these. I checked Kohls, Amazon, and Carsons and finally found them online at Target. Has anyone used these? I'm ready to buy them and would like to know how good they are.

Vintage Juice Glasses

I bought these pink vintage juice glasses several months ago-I couldn't resist for only $6.00.

More Candy Ornaments

Remember the lady I told you about that brought me some pink ornaments the other day? Her name is Nancy and I'm convinced she's my Christmas angel. Not only because she keeps bringing me wonderful Christmas stuff(when I can't seem to find much on my own), but because she brings it when I'm feeling down. I don't know how she's doing it, but it sure has made me perk up a little and feel better. As Tete says-there are Christmas angels out there!

Pink sugar coated baskets with candy and a candy guy... Sugar frosted candy picks(some have pink candy!) A little elf with pink shirt and pink/red striped candy cane How fun are these!

Plastic Pink Cupcake Ornaments

Aren't these cute??? I haven't been able to find any vintage ornaments anywhere this year(I'm blaming it on Ann from Sentamental Life-she even said she'd bought them all). So I've resorted to plastic pink ones!!! What are you finding out there?

Pink Ornaments

I was talking with a lady at work(she's a friend of my Mom's) about how I haven't been able to find any vintage pink ornaments this year. She was telling me how her mother has been wanting to get rid of some of her christmas ornaments and that she would go thru them and give some to me. This is what she brought me.... Some pink small balls. Can you see all the different ornaments-cupcakes, little victorian dresses, crochet snowflakes, little lace gloves, and so much more! I was so excited! This is exactly what I used to put on my victorian tree-I may have to get that out next year or put up a small tree this year!

Peach Blossom Pyrex???

I only have one of these. My sister in law used to collect it and I've picked this one up and just found it again. I don't think I'll be collecting this pattern-but it will go with my pink pyrex!

Pink Sugarplum

I haven't been to Bath and Body for such a long time but when I got a coupon in the mail-I had to go and buy this pink sugarplum lotion! While I was there-I bought my favorite Vanilla Bean Noel lotion too! Lots of cute stuff out there!

Candy Filled Jars

Isn't this the cutest idea-a jar with candy, a sticker, and ribbon! I can see a lot of these under a tree decorated with candy ornaments! What are you finding out there that's neat?
