Pink Saturday

July 24, 2009 at 11:42 pm by Claudia

Hello everyone! Welcome to Pink Saturday! Please stop by Beverly’s blog, How Sweet the Sound for a list of everyone participating.

This bird is one of my friend Joy’s creations. Isn’t it beautiful? I have one like it in aqua.
Pink pretties mixed with a little blue from the Barn Sale.
All the varied pinks in my potted impatiens – I love their subtle colors.
I hope everyone has a great weekend. I have been commenting all day long as part of the Where Bloggers Create Party. I’ve also been painting. My hands and fingers are tired! I will visit you all, I promise, but it may take a couple of days!

Oh, I forgot to add the best pink news – my nephew and his wife had their first child yesterday – a girl named Emma! Congratulations Eric and Sachie!

    Aaawww the crib – the soft pink canopy – a sweetheart, I say :-) And the little bird is very pretty with such delicate wings. Oh no doubt the aqua one is as equally as pretty :-)

    Happy PInk Saturday Claudia!

    Have a gorgeous week.

I also loved your post showing your work space! I kinda wished I joined in on that one, it’s been quite a week, and I guess I missed the word out on this one. I agree that there are so many ways to utilize any small space! Love your aqua-colored shelf and bulletin board too! Happy Pink Saturday, and hope you’re enjoying a wonderful weekend! ~tina

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.
