Pink Saturday~Bunny Pillow Cushions~

Welcome to another Pink Saturday. Hope you all are having a wonderful start to your weekend. Thank you Beverly at http://howsweetthesound.typepad.com/my_weblog/ for hosting PINK SATURDAY. Make sure to stop by her blog and see who else is participating and view the pinkies and their pretty posts!

Today I decided to post pictures of my newest creations. I made these adorable Bunny Pillow Cushions. I thought they were perfect with Spring on its way and Easter around the corner. They could either be used like a decorative pillow or as a pin cushion. I have had one for about 13 years and decided to make a few. I have them up in etsy shop. www.sweetmemorymakingmom.etsy.com

For this bunny, I used a wool felt and added a pretty pink and purple brooch. I love the way it stands out amongst the chartreuse gross grain ribbon bow. I also made a lavender carrot sachet to go with this bunny.

For this one I repurposed an older decorative baby quilt. I thought the colors would be perfect for Spring.


Well, I hope you enjoyed a peek at my newest creations. I hope to make more. Many Blessings and pink hugs, Ellen

p.s. I am fast approaching my 100TH POST and I will be having a GIVEAWAY! So make sure to check back.

Pink Saturday

Good Morning My PiNk SaTuRdAy FrIeNdS! Today is such a beautiful day. Even though there is still snow outside, the sun is out and the weather is warming up alittle. I am so excited for Spring and so are the girls. We can't wait to get out and plant our flowers and mini vegetable garden. The girls and I have been experiencing cabin fever for awhile now and I though that I would share a few photos of yet another mischievious endevour my lil' ones got into. Both girls decided to get into some play makeup they had received at Christmas. They found where I was hidding it. So her are Audrey and Jane, my very own "PINK" Umpa Lumpas!!! LOL

Write up on my Pin Cushions!

I was asked the other day by Nan at lachambrerose.blogspot.com if she could feature one of my pin cushions and my etsy shoppe. I was tickled pink! I was honored and humbled at her request. Ofcourse I said yes. She plans to feature more of my pin cushions and other items in the future.

Pink Saturday

Happy Pink Saturday! I just have to say that I want to be the lady in this picture by Tilda. Don't you just lov e the colors! Here in Connecticut it is cold and windy and we still have lots of snow. I am tired of shoveling and chipping away at ice. And if I have to thaw out another frozen pipe!!! I would much rather be on a beach laying in the warm sand sipping a PINK Lemonade! Wouldn't you? So stay warm. Think Pink! And have a wonderful Pink Saturday! I want to thank Beverly for another wonderful week of pink.

First Pink Saturday 2009

Hello and Welcome to the First Pink Saturday of the New Year. Can you believe that it is 2009. Time goes by so quickly! Thank you Beverly at How Sweet The Sound. Click on her link, http://howsweetthesound.typepad.com/my_weblog/ and see all the other bloggers participating in the pink fun.

My sister and I went to Toys r us to get my daughter some gifts for her birthday and to our pleasant surprise we saw PINK. You should have seen us oooing and aaaing! We both wanted a pink Scrabble and Monopoly, but then looked at the price. I've seen them online with great markdowns. So I just might have to order some games! I didn't have my camera with me so I copied pics from the website. So all you pink ladies out there who love pink. Take a peek.

My sister and I love Scrabble. We definately will get this!

The Pink Monopoly game has so many great changes. One of the little figures is a flip. Just so cute! I will be getting this at some point!!!

This game great. It has saying on each block!


Now this would be great for a Pink Ladies Night!!! Make some snacks and maybe a PINK DRINK! Wink Wink! How fun!

I never had the patience for this game but they have it in pink!

They also had other pink games like pink Twister. Make sure to check them out. Have a Pinkaliscous Saturday!!!

pink hugs, Ellen

AUDREY~A Few Minutes Old

Dan found a blown up photo of Audrey minutes after she was born. Sorry it isn't clearer but I had to post it. It isn't the one with one eye shut but just as cute. I just cannot believe that she has become the cute and sweet and smart little girl I know and love today.

Thank you God for Audrey, Our Blessing. Make sure to cherish every moment you have in the New Year! She was perfect. The perfect way for me to have started my new year.

hugs, Ellen
