Pink Saturday

at by

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?

  10. The Eiffel is so cute and what a great use for it! Love the tulips, they’re one of my favorites, Your blog background looks great – I really like it. Happy Pink Saturday!

  12. How absolutely wonderful! Beverly sure knew what she was doing when she created a place for all of us “pinkies” to congregate and share our “pinkness”.

    Happy Mother’s Day to you. I hope you find yourself surrounded by those you love, good food, and a gentle peace in your ♥. We don’t need to be a mother to know a mother’s life. After all we all started out with a mom, didn’t we?☺

  16. Lovely pink saturday post – I posted in the entry before this one as I started reading and couldn’t quit… lol. loved the one with your grandma’s shoe, too – blessings, J

  17. i have that set of rubber stamps too!!!!!! Aren’t they just delish? I have barely used mine…..I do have to make some “fun” time around here..

    Blessings!
    Spencer

    PS…….Happy Pink Saturday!

  18. How clever are you?? I’ve seen wire eiffel towers over the years and never, ever thought – Aha!!! What a great earring holder! I LOVE it!! The next time I see a wire sculpture, I’m going to be looking at it with new eyes!!

    Your background looks beautiful! I love to ‘change things up’ a bit once in a while (although usually it’s my banner that changes since I don’t know how to do background changes! haha )

    Have a wonderful week, Claudia!… Donna @ An Enchanted Cottage

  20. That is my kind of earring holder!!! Now I want that tin too…I knew I shouldn’t have stopped by here…LOL HPS!

  22. It sounds like you are having a busy, busy weekend. I hope you have time to gaze at your beautiful painting down below. I’m so glad you bought it for yourself. I think it was meant to be.
    Have a wonderful pink weekend Claudia!

  23. Hi Claudia,

    This is my first Pink Saturday and being an avid gardener I am delighted that so many ladies have posted such lovely pink flowers. It was a joy to visit your blog. I look forward to coming back again next week.

    Thank you for visiting my blog.

  24. Glad you bought the painting.
    I like the note holder much more as an earring holder. Very pretty!

  25. Hi Claudia, I like the background. It goes very well with the header. The note holder/ear ring holder is pretty, perfect . And the tulips are beautiful. I’ve done no stamping but these are very nice.
    I like the cherub picture and am glad you finally got it!!! I don’t often have something grab me in this way but I, too, have Mr Wonderful who takes extra good care of me…

    Have a wonderful weekend.

  29. What a wonderful idea for your earrings and so sweet too. The tulips are just beautiful.
    Happy Pink Saturday!

    oh your background is lovely :)

  31. hi claudia!

    love your pink saturday collection. i really like the way cavallini packages their things. i have the nest stamp set mostly because of the pretty tin! the eiffel tower is great (and so are your earrings)!

    i like the background. very soft and not distracting.

    happy PS!

    xo

  32. Love the eiffel tower! And your stamps, I have the same ones – we must have good taste! Happy Pink Saturday! Thanks for visiting my blog.

  36. Buonasera Claudia,
    thank you for stopping by. yes it’s a butter cup yellow stove in my kitchen, we have more…maybe I will do a blog on vintage stoves. Have a nice weekend Ciao

  38. The background is lovely, the Eiffel Tower re-purpose is a great idea and I think we should all be taking advantage of the tulips at Trader Joe’s while we still can! You’ve inspired me to get myself over there and buy some!

    Happy Pink Saturday!

  40. What a nifty idea! And what better to hold your earrings than the Eiffel Tower!

    LOVE your Johnson Bros. platter…I need a 12 piece setting…I suppose 8 would do but while I wishing…lol!

    Enjoy your weekend,
    Melissa

  41. Claudia, I love the background The other was lovely too but try this new one for a week or two. It took me a very long time to get used to the one I have. My background used to be a solid med. gray and I just couldn’t get used to all the colors in the new background…lol!

    What a great idea to use your Eiffel Tower to hold your earrings. I’d be buying up those bouquets of tulips too!

  45. Happy Pink Saturday—Happy Mother’s Day to YOU (your poochies are missing you, I’m sure, as much as you are missing them!)

    Your little Eiffel Tower looks so sweet with your earrings dangling from it! :) The tulips are beautiful. Ours are about all gone around KC,MO!

    Did you ever tell us what play/movie you’re working on–and what you do? It all sounds so exciting!!

    I hope you’re having a great Pink Sat. weekend!! Dana

  51. Thank you for stopping by to visit me on Pink Saturday! You are soooooooooooooooooooooooooo lucky to have Trader joes! We don’t have any out here but, if I am in California… I look them up. Have a great week.

  52. Hello Claudie! I was over at Rita’s blog and saw that she took a picture of you and Christie at the Barn Sale in Temecula! I thought, hey I know Claudie! It’s a small world! Anyhoo, I live in Murrieta next door to Temecula, so the next time you are over this way I would love to meet you at the Barn! You have a sweet blog! You take such pretty pictures! Hope to see you soon!

    Hugs,
    Maryjane
