WALK IN LOVE THIS PS!

Hi my fellow Pinkies! Happy Pink Saturday! Do you remember what you were doing when 9/11 happened? I do, I was glued to the television, crying and feeling so scared and helpless. Some days are so profound in our lives, they leave a mark forever in our hearts. My prayers go out to the families of those whose lives were lost that day. I am so grateful for the men and women who continue to protect our great nation. My hope is that we can all learn to "Walk in Love". My sister, Nora, made that cross stitch for me. I just love it. It is one of the most favorite things I own.





I have started Pink Saturday late, but a least I posted this week. Last week I could not even post because things were so busy around here. I am sharing a few things I have up in my guest room. It is funny how we all have a guest rooms now. I guess our children are going up! These "Pinks" are on one of the dressers. My guest room has a guest this month. My husband's niece Sarah. She is a lovely treat for me, I will be sad to see her go.





I would like to invite you to visit Patti at http://pattiannsblog.blogspot.com/. She is a beautiful lady, who has shown me lots of love during my time of need. I never thought I would meet so many women who could touch my heart with their love, kindness, their talent and their love of the Lord. It was a surprise I am so grateful for. I am so grateful for her in my life. Please visit her, you will not be disappointed.




I hope you all have a wonderful weekend. Please let me know if you want to be part of the give away and don't forget Tea Cup Tuesday! You are the best! Blessings, Martha

TEA CUP TUESDAY NO. 27!

Hi Ladies: Did Tuesday just sneak up on you? It did me, Tea Cup Tuesday No. 27, and I am still thinking it is Sunday night, instead of Monday night. If my dear friend Terri had not sent me Mr. Linky, I would have been late again. I feel like I have missed so much on everyone blog these last few days. I know I am still running late, but better than last week! I have to get my act together! Please keep praying!





I am going to share some very different cups today. The first one is a Black and White and Gold cup made by Clarence China in England. It is No 52 of only 460 made. I love the Quatrefoil shape cup that sits on a pedestal. Clarence China, commonly made Chintz designs. This is a rare design for them. I just love how beautiful the Black and White looks.





Cup number 2 is another rare cup. It does not have a saucer, I don't know if it ever did. It is another hand numbered, hand decorated piece. This is by Lenox. It has a Fragonard shape with an angular handle all hand done. This is my favorite piece this week. I love the heavy gold they used on this cup.




Cup number 3 is this beautiful Limoges, Faberge, demitasse cup. The cup features a Victorian couple, in period attire, in a natural outdoor setting. This beautiful cup is a Royal Blue in color with a ribbed shape cup. It features a beautiful broken loop handle that is very common in Limoges cups. The saucer is scalloped with hand painted gold flowers to match the cup. I decided to put this one up for auction on Ebay today. Don't know why except, I need to start making Christmas money to tell you the truth. Another reason may be that I watch "Hoarders" today. I need to prove that I can get rid of my things, if I want too!





The very last cup I want to share is new to my home. It was purchased Friday for $1.49 at the Thirty Store. I just love Limoges. (I know I have said that hundred times.) It is by Theodore Haviland Limoges to be exact. I just love the faded look that Limoges does and the beautiful scalloped cup and saucer. It is just stunning and you can't beat the price. I don't think a girl can have too much Limoges, do you?



Well, you know what to do with "Mr. Linky". Please don't forget to visit Terri, and her amazing cups. Let me know if you want to be a part of my give away. Have a wonderful time at the party! The very first picture is the new blue and white colors of my house this month. Just thought I share a peek! Love you! Blessings, Martha

HAPPY PINK SATURDAY!

Hi Pinkies! Another Pink Saturday hosted by Beverly. What would we do without Pink Saturday? It just seems to make everything better. It makes me feel normal, in a very un-normal time for me. I have been busy this week learning how to make myself bleed to get my sugar numbers. I have not gone to classed yet, that happens next week. Right now, I am a human pin cushion. I continue to ask for your prayers, thank you!



This week I thought I would show you some items I have pick up recently at Estate sales. My Mother and I have been visiting them lately. I am only going to show you the "pinks", I will save the rest for later. This first picture looks like it is original. I love the pretty pink roses on her hat.



The next oval frame is part of a set. The other had too much glare to post, but you can see how pretty it is. I believe this set, I am going to sell on Ebay, because I have not found a place for them.



I just love this cup and the lady next to it. I believe the lady is a Poppytrail! The colors are so pretty and the price was right $1.49 each. You can't get better than that! This next picture is of a Lefton Lamp and an Egg. I think they will look beautiful at Easter time. Hopely I will keep these. I am not sure yet, still thinking about it.



Hope you have a wonderful three day weekend. I am going to try and catch up with my visitors from Tuesday. Don't worry ladies, I will visit everyone. I don't want to miss one tea cup.



Don't forget to let me know if you want to be a part of the give away. I will be ending it on my birthday, September 23rd. This last picture is the plate I am going to give away! Blessings, Martha
