Pink Saturday

at by


Time for another Pink Saturday! Our hostess, Beverly, has asked us to speak about our favorite holiday decorations this week. I have a lot of vintage ornaments that I love, but my favorite ornaments are these rather new bottlebrush ornaments. Heidi carries them in her shop and I’ve bought about 8 or 9 of them over the past 3 years. They are big – about 6 inches across – and really have an impact on the tree. Plus, they are just wonderfully old-fashioned, which I love.

Who knows? I may buy some more this year!
In keeping with Pink Saturday, I also want to show one of my favorite vintage ornaments:

I am helping out at my friend’s shop today, so I will be away part of the day. I will be sure to visit everyone over the weekend.

Please stop by How Sweet the Sound to see a list of everyone participating.

  33. Happy Pink Saturday Claudia…
    Such a beautiful post. Oh my how beuatiful these ornaments are. I love the star and the snowflake. I would have to buy both, as I wouldn’t be able to choose. How every pretty they are.

    Hope you had fun today helping out in your friends shop. Sounds like a lot of fun going on over there.

    Stop by and say hi. I love it when you do sweetie. I want to share my pink post too. Country hugs, Sherry

  35. Lovin’ the bottlebrush vibe going on everywhere this year….those ornaments are awesome! And the pink vintage ornament is stunning. Yummy!

  37. We don’t need elaborate decorations or a big tree or numerous gifts under a tree. All any of us needs is to carry the spirit of Christmas in our hearts and to share it all year long with everyone we meet.

    Thank you so much for sharing your blog with me today. Yes, I’m crazy about ♥PINK♥ but I’m also devoted to visiting some of the nicest blogs in cyberspace.

    Hoping your weekend is filled with peace.

  38. These are fabulous. I’ve never seen bottle brush ornaments, but I can certainly understand why they are your favorites. I’ve got to keep my eye out for some. Happy Pink Saturday.

  41. hi claudia!

    (i almost wrote “claud” — does anyone call you that?)

    your ornaments are very pretty + unique + cool = fun!

    xo

  43. Isn’t it funny how once you start seeing something – you really see them every where. That’s how it is for me with these bottle brush ornaments. Seems I’m seeing them everywhere. Yours are really nice. Happy Pink Saturday!

    Smiles,
    Tricia

  44. WOW Claudia your a bottle brush crazy woman LOL
    I am too but can’t seem to find any in pink : (
    Your hubby is woohoo cute. I didn’t know he was all those things? Really? Does he have a C.D. out?
    Love all your decorations my friend. There was something else I wanted to comment on, but it’s gone from my head.
    Sorry I’m so late. I witnessed the passing of the Olympic Torch today. My 3rd cousin was running with it. Such an emotional day. Took tons of pictures. It was a clear blue sunny day. I met family that I didn’t even know existed, The torch is on it’s way to B.C. Canada as you might know. i live in Ottawa, Ontario, long way to go if you know where that is : ) which I know you do.
    My day has been full.
    Happy PS
    Love Claudie

  45. Oh I know what it was….
    I was in Vancouver last week and saw a live “It’s a Wonderful Life” I LOVED IT!! So professional.
    Ok that’s it.

  47. Happy Pink Saturday ! I just love the bottle brush decorations. I found one wreath at Big Lots – I wish they made big bottle brush trees. Your tree is beautiful and I can’t wait to see it decorated. Have a wonderful new week filled with all things Christmas.

  48. Hello Claudia, the bottle brush ornaments are vintage looking and so pretty. I like them too. The vintage pink ornament is so beautiful. I have a very strong fondness for anything vintage. The pink Ornament is awesome.

    I think I knew you lived in MI at one time Claudia. Frankenmuth is truly a fun place to visit.

    I am visiting late for Pink Sat. as we were out of town. I enjoyed your post today.
    Hugs, Jeanne
