Pink Saturday

March 14, 2009 at 12:13 am by Claudia

Ah, time for another Pink Saturday. Beverly of How Sweet the Sound generously hosts this event. Please click on the link to see more Pink Saturday posts! How about a little blue with your pink today?

I found this little German plate at Vignette’s today. I love the blue and pink colors in this sweet piece of china. The flowers are more pink than this photo indicates.

Some of you have seen this print before, but I bought it to brighten up my apartment while living here in San Diego. I love the blue background and the beautiful pink flowers.

Happy Pink Saturday to all!

Pink Saturday

March 7, 2009 at 1:05 am by Claudia

Happy Pink Saturday everyone! I am posting early because my husband is arriving here in San Diego tonight! We are looking forward to 6 days of being together after 2 months of being apart.


First up, this vintage knitting bag I bought at the New York Sheep and Wool Festival last October. Isn’t it charming? I love vintage fabrics.


Next, the vintage barkcloth cushion cover that I have had for oh, so many years. I brought this with me to San Diego, but will most likely send it back home in April as it lives on our porch glider in the summertime.


These lovely blossoms are right outside my office window at the University. So pretty!

I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend. I will visit you all throughout the week ahead.
Please visit Beverly at How Sweet the Sound for a list of all those participating.

Pink Saturday

February 28, 2009 at 2:54 am by Claudia

Beverly of How Sweet the Sound has a Pink Saturday post every Saturday. Many bloggers take part in this, and I thought I would join in today. Since I am away from home, in a furnished apartment, I am limited in my access to pink. I think I managed to find enough for a respectable post!

Pink flowers on my Rachel Ashwell shower curtain (bought to replace the hideous one provided in the apartment.)

Pink flowers on my coffee cup.

Pink rose on my wall.

Pink roses on an antique plate. Can you tell I love flowers?

One of two pink dishes I bought to hold keys, jewelry, etc.

Pink, white and yellow Alstromeria

Pink roses in a painting by Gail McCormick that I purchased from Shabby Fufu.

I think I will stop here. I have some other pink things, but I should save them for another Pink Saturday! I hope you enjoyed all my pink treasures.

More later.

Welcome!

Welcome!

I live in a little cottage in the country with my husband. It's a sweet place, sheltered by old trees and surrounded by gardens. The inside is full of the things we love. I love to write, I love my camera, I love creating, I love gardening. My decorating style is eclectic; full of vintage and a bit of whimsy.

I've worked in the theater for more years than I can count. I'm currently a voice, speech, dialect and text coach freelancing on Broadway, off Broadway, and in regional theater.

Thanks for stopping by.
