Pink Saturday

May 23, 2009 at 12:06 am by Claudia

Hard to believe another week has gone by so quickly, but it is Pink Saturday again…please stop by our hostess Beverly’s blog and see the list of all the participants. I must admit I was afraid I had nothing pink to offer this week. Then, my husband and I were having breakfast with friends and one of them gave me a little Pink Saturday treat. She reads my blog. My present was this sweet little teapot.

Isn’t it adorable? Thank you, Lynne!

This week I bought more tulips and was sure they were a pale lavender. When I got them home, I found they were the palest of pinks ~ a delicate, lovely pink.

Have a lovely weekend, everyone!

Pink Saturday

Hello everyone – it is time for another Pink Saturday, hosted by Beverly. Please stop by her blog to see a list of all participating.

Well, another week has passed by full of rehearsals and work – so full that I can hardly believe its Saturday already. The usual still applies: I will be in rehearsals Saturday and Sunday and promise to visit you all over the weekend!

This is a mini Eiffel Tower that I originally bought to hold notes and reminders. After continually searching for my earrings, I decided to use it as an earring holder.

My set of Paris-related stamps from Cavallini –

Have to finish with more Tulips – I am really trying to take advantage of all the lovely bouquets at Trader Joes while I can.



Have a wonderful weekend, everyone!

I’m trying a new background…not sure whether I like it or if I should go back to the old one. I felt like a change…any thoughts?

Pink Saturday

Happy Pink Saturday, everyone! Please stop by Beverly’s place to see a list of all participating. As you know, I went to the Barn Sale at La Maison Rustique last weekend. Thought I’d share a few of the pink treasures I saw there.

I love this pink desk – or dressing table.


On the left is a vintage dress – on the right a coverlet made of pink barkcloth. The backing of the coverlet is a red color and the ties are red. I contemplated getting this and I didn’t. Now I could kick myself.

Here is a closer view. Again – what was I thinking?

Love this pink chair.

To close – some tulips!



This will be another Saturday and Sunday in rehearsal. I also have to attend a formal dinner at the University on Saturday evening honoring, among others, one of my former students. All this is to say I may be a bit late getting around to everyone’s posts, but I will!

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.
