Happy Pink Saturday and Happy Thanksgiving

I'm lucky to say my husband and I have been invited for Thanksgiving dinner this year.  That gives me the ability to start decorating for Christmas.  I have the tendency to over do, but I love it so much, I just can't help myself.  I know many of you feel the same way.  There is no other time of year that brings so many of us pure joy. 

I was unable to do as much as I like the last several years because of my back.  I pared back out of necessity, but found I actually liked it.  I have been going through my stuff to decide what I wanted to do with it.  A daunting task, but very satisfying.  I use to take every thing non Christmas down, to make way for holiday decorations.  Now I'm not doing much of traditional Christmas colors.  This leaves me plenty of space for my PINK.  Oh, I also happen to love white and pastels!  There will be plenty of soft romantic eye candy.

I did take the time to list a few of my glitter houses and decorated trees on Ebay.  I also pulled my holiday decorations and started  decorating.  I 'm happy to be on my way.

I just came from a great blog that was part of Pink Saturday.  She had a little note to remember our local food banks.  I am so happy to be a part of such caring women.
  
I do hope you will visit Miss Beverly.

I hope you will visit Miss June also.

I hope your blessings are many, and your Thanksgiving a joy.

And of course I hope you enjoy,   My Pink Pretties.

I'm so happy to be back.

Hi to all and Happy Pink Saturday.

I have had a very busy fall.  In the month of September, we were gone 3/4's of the month.  Needless to say our yard work and house work continued on with what seemed like great vigor.  I did have a little time to create some putzes.  I found some little ceramic house that I painted in the putz style.  I love the vintage pieces with their haphazard appearance.  I tried to make the ceramic pieces similar so I could use them with my vintage pieces.  I also hand dyed and decorated little trees to go with them.  I like them so much I decided to do a few and place them on eBay.  I hope to get them out there this weekend.
