Happy Pink Saturday, everyone!

I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving and found great sales on Black Friday
(I did!)
I thought I'd share some stockings I made several years ago. I just love to use vintage chenille bedspreads for crafts, I'm sure you do also, and I made some easy stockings out of one pink bedspread, I used my machine to monogram initials and surrounded the monograms with vintage buttons, and LOTS of glitter on top and then trimmed the top edge with various vintage edgings and ribbons, some from vintage linens! I really love the color pink for Christmas decorating, don't you?
Please visit How Sweet the Sound for all the Pink Saturday participants! Thanks, Beverly, for being our host! Suzie

Another view of the dinner table, notice the pink napkins? It's the only set I had 10 of, but I actually liked it!

I made these as place cards for the table, I found the idea on another blog, but I can't remember which! You can put them on the fridge too!

I found these huge acorns at a nearby park on Thanksgiving morning, I thought they were amazing!

PINK continues on Sunday too...

Here's a close-up of the sugary, sparkly house I bought from the Chi Omega shopping extravaganza! Isn't it beautiful?!! Plus these are my crazy friends, Gail and Maria! Gail purchased a couple of these wiggle scooters at the market and needed to try them out to see if they work. Crazy girls! Suzie
