Pink Saturday

at by

Happy Pink Saturday! Our hostess is Beverly and if you stop by her blog, you will see a list of all those participating.

I received a package today that made my heart sing. It was from dear Elyse. Let’s look inside my newly opened package, shall we?

I spy something beautifully crocheted.

Gorgeous! Someone put a great deal of time and effort into this beauty – not to mention sheer skill. I love this. Oh, here’s a card –


Elyse recently wrote about something she was making for a friend who had a dollhouse. She posted a photo and I, along with many others, raved about it. What does her card say?

Oh boy! It was for me!

Swoon! I am in love with this sweet pink hutch. Could anything be more adorable? I can’t stop looking at it! Be still my heart! Elyse, you are so sweet and thoughtful to think of me and my dollhouse. Do you see what Elyse placed on the shelf?

A sweetly wrapped bouquet of flowers…sigh.
Thank you, sweet Elyse! You are a wonderful friend.

I have been blessed with such wonderful, generous blogging friends. When I first wrote about the dollhouse, fellow bloggers offered advice and support. They generously sent me furniture, accessories, and information to start me off in the miniature world. You are all so dear to me. I am itching to start sprucing up the outside of the dollhouse so that I can fix up the inside and fill it with all my beautiful gifts. Hmmm. What should I name my dollhouse? Any suggestions?

Happy Pink Saturday!

  1. Hi, Claudia,
    You have some very lovely things in your package. I love the pink hutch. It will look charming in your dollhouse. Vicki

  5. What FUN! This looks like it was a true delight to open. You are so patient to take pictures as you opened it up. I always just tear through it and take pictures later! Not to mention my two year old nephew has been around lately when they come and he insists on helping to open. Which can get tricky! Happy Pink Saturday and have a great holiday weekend.

  7. What a great gift! What a fun project to decorate the dollhouse – especially with gifts from friends. Happy Pink Saturday!

  10. Hello Claudia!

    I’ve seen it back on Elyse’s and when I saw it (without reading it yet, deep inside I was thinking of you :-) Oh I don’t know, ever since you mentioned your dollhouse, and when I see blogs with miniature things, I think of you LOL

    Fall is starting so the dollhouse project is getting nearer!

    Happy Pink Saturday! and glad to be back on PS :-)

  25. Hi Claudia.
    Happy Pink Saturday Sweetie. I so love this little post this morning. How sweet of Elyse to send this little hutch to you, and even pink. Does it get any better than that? Thanks for sharing this wonderful package of love. Please stop by and say hi. I so love it when you do. On my PS post I am introducing a new blog. My 31 year old daughter Heidi’s. It is so fun and inviting. I would so love to have you visit her. Please stop by. Country hugs sweetie, Sherry

  29. What a super house warming gift! The flowers are just the touch! Elyse is the greatest!
    I cannot wait to see your finished project!
    A name for your cottage…hummm… I’ll keep thinking!
    Hugs, Lisa

  31. Those are such delightful treasures for your dollhouse. Happy Pink Saturday, Hmm, a name for your dollhouse, how about –
    Mini Mockingbird Hill Cottage.
    I’ve a collection of antique minatures, always make me smile. Thanks, Claudia.

  36. That is so sweet! What a wonderful friend to do something so special for you…just love these bloggers…they are the best!

    Have a wonderful week-end, Claudia…God bless!

  37. Claudia, thank you for visiting my blog and leaving your kind comments!

    That doily is so pretty! I love crocheted doilies . . . my grandma used to make them all the time . . . she was a natural!

    What a gorgeous hutch! I can’t wait to see you fill it up with wonderful things!

    Hmmm . . . a name . . . that’s always a tuffy for me. I have to wait until I know who’s going to live in the house before I know what to name it. Are you going to have a doll for your house?

    Good luck with a name and Happy Pink Saturday!

    Hugs,
    Teresa

  38. Claudia,

    Came by earlier but no one was home.

    JUST KIDDING!! =0)

    Lovely gift you received.
    And I saw all those awards on your other blog.
    Wow!!! I had to do one of those no tag things on my site. I just have too hard a time passing awards on. Never know who to choose. Always afraid I’d leave someone out.
    (not that i get so many being new).

  40. Happy Pink sat Claudia,Your dollhouse furniture is so pretty from Elyse.The entire package is very pretty.I love your Hymnal board with the aqua vase!Thank you for visiting me and leaving me such nice comments.hugs,Jen

  41. What a sweet gift! I asked my daughter if it would be strange for me to ask for a doll house for my 50th birthday. Do you think that was a subtle enough hint? LOL
    Have a wonderful weekend Claudia!

  42. You are one popular lady with a very popular blog. Love your pink gifts. Love all you lovely pictures. Such sweetness.

    I hope you pop over to my blog. I did PINK FRIDAY.

    Happy Pinks..can’t wait to see the finished dollhouse.

  48. Hello Claudia, I too have a doll house and big box of doll house furniture etc. I haven’t set it up for several years. It needs a re-do and I keep talking about it and still haven’t started it. LOL My most special aunt and uncle helped me build it and they are both gone. I must get going and JDI (just do it)

    Elyse is a dear to send you such lovely gifts. Your pinks are very special today,

    Hugs..Jeanne
