PINK SATURDAY: IN SEARCH OF SOMETHING PINK

I have to begin by confessing that I am a "pink" fraud. Yep, you heard me right....yellow is my favorite color and has been my whole life. Please don't get me wrong, I really like the color pink, but I don't have it in my home. This week was very hard for me, because I had no idea what to post for Pink Saturday. I decided to make a game of it and this is what I did. I wrote all the rooms of my home on a piece of paper and drew one out. That was going to be the room I looked in for pink, something pink, anything pink!!! The lucky room?? THE DINING ROOM! OH MY!!

Before we start, lets say THANKYOU to Beverly from How Sweet The Sound for making all this fun possible. I also want to say that I hope this finds Beverly's mother on the mend and doing better than ever. Lets begin:

Lets begin the hunt for pink, but I don't think it will be easy......lets go!

Well, this won't count because it sits outside the dining room. I didn't plan this very well did I?

There is some pink in this floral arrangement sitting on my sideboard.....what else can we find?

A tiny bit of pink hand painted on an old board hanging in the dining room.

I guess I must be desparate, I brought this in from the bedroom and placed it on the buffet......sorry for the confusion, I admit, I panicked......anyway, this is a cute pincushion made from an old baby shoe that I received for a swap, just too cute, don't you think?

Oh Look, this might work.....

Here's a close up of the color, I think I will count this as pink, even tho it may be more of a raspberry pink.

No pink here, but I do see something else that needs to be polished!! What was I thinking?

I love antique high chairs and raggedy dolls. I think there may be some pink here, but I have to admit, you really have to look.

Looking across the room, nothing pink stands out, we need to move in closer.

I spy some pink over here. I never realized how hard pink is to find in my home. Maybe I should go shopping?!

I think this looks pink.......

Copper always takes on a pink hue once is freshly polished and this fish poacher is no acception. Will it count? I think so.

I found some!! These floral candlesticks!! Yippee

How about on this side table lamp.....any pink there? Maybe if we could lighten up the red, I could call it pink?

My husbands childhood teddy sits in this antique high chair in the corner of the dining room, do you see any pink here? Keep looking......... Poor Cinnamon Bear, he only has one eye, he was very well loved, don't ya think?

I cross-stitched this little swag for the high chair years ago, there is some pink, do you see it?!!

This is my dining table, do you see any pink there? Oh pretty please, let there be some pink.

This sits in the center of my table. I guess you could say this is dark pink? Who am I kidding, but it is burgandy, so it is from the pink family.....isn't it?? Please say yes.

To look at this room, you just wouldn't think there was a "pink" lover waiting to break out. I think I have fooled myself, she is in there and all I have to do is let her out! Oh boy, but don't tell my husband what is about to happen, it'll be our secret!!
