Pink Saturday November 28th, 2009

It is a Wonderful Winter day for Pink Saturday !! :) Hosted by Sweet Beverly of How Sweet The Sound, She graciously hosts this pink party every week without fail. Please go say Hi to her and visit more Pink blogs !! :)

I thought I would show some things I have painted a few years ago and sold.


Sweet ornaments with Angel graphics, I LOVED these and would like to make more someday :) I think I NEED some on my pretty white pink and aqua tree :)

Hubby found this sweet vintage child's kitchen piece. Someone made this for their sweet little girl by hand. I repainted it and added my roses, rosebuds and a cherry pie in the window. I also made the dishtowel as well. This was a BEAR to ship !! lol !! :) Would have loved to see the little girls face that got it that year for Christmas :)



My favorite box EVER. Sorry, I think I lightened the pictures too much.



And lastly, these aren't painted, but they ARE pink. I just added to my store. I LOVE how sparkly and sweet they are !! :) Hoping to make a few more, but am running out of time !

Anyhoo, That is my Pinkness for today :) Hope that your Thanksgiving was Extra Special :) I got to meet my Grand-Bunny "Brat" :) My son bought a Bunny for his new apt. He went to the ASPCA to look for a Pit Bull, and came home with a furry white bunny instead, :) That's my guy :)

Hugs,

Rhea

Happy Thanksgiving !!

A little Departure from the golds, browns, oranges and greens with a touch of Blue. See, I DO like SOME blue :) lol !! Anyhoo. Getting ready for tomorrow, lots of Food, Pies and Love, cant wait !!!

I am thankful for SO much. My Lord Jesus. Our Son Jeff, and Our Daughters, Kaitlyn, Heather and Danielle. My Sweet Husband and Our Parents. My Sister Kelly, and her family. All of YOU :) This Beautiful Earth that we live on. The Freedoms of My Country, and all of the Brave Servicemen and Women who sacrifice every day for each of us. I am thankful for my sweet puppies, Jake and Baby :) I am thankful that friends and family members have Survived Cancer this year, Judy, Joy, Carol and Deena. I am so very grateful for that.
My heart and Prayers go out to all of the Men and Women and their families at Ft. Hood.

Wishing EACH of you the Most Blessed Thanksgiving Ever !!! :)

Hugs,

Rhea :)

My other favorite color.......

I wouldn't say it is a sea foam, more of a soft aqua blue. Pale Robin's egg blue. Funny as I have never liked Blue- Blue. But this Blue green just speaks to me. :)
I know. You are looking at these pictures and saying " Rhea, these ARE Blue " Well, they probably are just Blue. But my painters eye sees a touch of green.
I need to make an Aqua set like these for MY kitchen :) ( New Cupcake sets for the shop, hoping to list this week :) )

Ok, I digress. I DO like Some blue. I like Blue forget-me-nots. And I DO like Vintage Bluebird knick knacks. But that is mostly it :) Lol :) Well, and Blue Otter Pops :)
But, This is the color that sings my name, " Take me Home !! You Know you need me " lol !! :) Thanks for indulging my sweet tooth for soft Aqua !!! :)

Are you ready for Thanksgiving ? We're going to Mom's. I am not up to all of the cooking here. Do you have any Family Thanksgiving traditions ? (Other than eating till we are ill ( lol ! ) ) Our only tradition is taking Communion together as a Family :) Please share yours with me :)

Hugs,

Rhea

Happy Pink Saturday !! I Hope that you have all had a Great Week !! I have been busy working on my store, and catching up on emails, etc. I still have a ways to go !! The weather here in the Desert is Beautiful !! This is Our Spring. Was sick AGAIN, but hoping that is behind me now :) Here is a Redo that I did a while back for my Vanity. this vintage powder box was Yellow. And a Yucky shade of Yellow.

Yick !!

Well, Poo !!!

I was SO excited to get on with my life and the day after I posted last time, I woke up with a Virus, and have been in bed all week, AGAIN. Happy though, it wasn't the H1N1, or the regular flu. Just some type of infection, that made me pretty ill. Speaking of H1N1. I TRULY feel and am praying for those with young kids, and Grandbabies right now. I have read so many different stories about the vaccines and whether they are safe. I am praying for all of our Children and young people and those in high risk for this. I know that Our Lord has His hand on each child.

We have had the most beautiful weather here, in the low 80's with no humidity. Just love it !! ( What I can see through the window :) ) This is our spring in the desert as our real spring kind of goes straight from freezing, to the 100's, lol !!! :) Fall is usually mild and long. Tomorrow is Hubby's day off and we will do a bit of thrifting. I will be opening my store on Friday again, and have lots of vintage goodies that I bought before my Time Out and cant wait to show you !!! Also, I will be making my cupcakes, mini cupcakes and cookies as well to add. I did start on several products 6 months ago and I hope to have them all completed and listed by the end of the weekend. :) Yippee !! I miss all of the camaraderie visiting your blogs and seeing the goodies you make as they pop up onto etsy !

I made this little basket for a very sweet lady, who has the Patience of a Saint and the Kindness as well. I hope she likes it .


This is for one of my BFF's for her Birthday. I covered her pretty Mom's face as I didn't know if she would want that on here, but she is a very stunning and beautiful woman :)

More Aqua for her Birthday :) LOVE this old wallpaper !!!

Ok, here is a Trash To Treasure. I found this sweetie about a year ago, her hand was missing and she had been glued in a few spots, as well as missing some Yicky red rhinestones. So, I made her back into the Glamour Girl she was Meant to be, with Pearl bubbles, and lots of rhinestones. A new Tiara, Bracelet and cocktail ring. She is Just Divine and I am adding her to my shop on Friday :)

Before, a bit Banged up, poor dear :

After, having the Time of her life in her Bubbles and Rhinestones :) :

That's all for today !!! Thank you all that commented and please know I am working on STILL writing letters and that I will be visiting you shortly. I love and pray for each of you Sweet souls :) :)

Hugs,

Rhea

I'm Here !!!

I am Here !! :)

Ok, my few weeks turned into 6 months, :( , Sorry. I cant believe it has been that long. I have a Pile of emails and letters to go through, of which I TRULY am so thankful for all of the love and support. I am feeling much better, finally. I had one thing after another happen, which I wont even begin to go into. But I am up and running again :) I have SO much catching up to do, so just know, you ALL mean the world to me and I think of each of you that comment here and pray for you :) My MS test came back Negative, Thank You Jesus !!!! :) I have an auto immune disease that creates lots of internal swelling. Hence the legs hurting, burning, falling, stumbling, shaking and dropping things . I also have Chronic Costochondritis ( rib swelling ) I AM on a new medication that has helped tremendously :) So, Life is good :) I MISSED you all :) !!!!!!!

I will leave you with some pretties to look at. :) I forgot to sign up for Pink Saturday, so here is some Pink today for YOU :)



Hugs ,

Rhea :)
