Here we go, PINK SATURDAY at Beverly's HOW SWEET THE SOUND once again. My goodness, where in the world does the time go? Anyway, let's get busy. Today I'm sharing a few things that are in my bedroom. Above you see the lamp that sits on my night stand. I just fell in love with the pink rose when I saw this in eBay. I couldn't believe my eyes when about a year later I found a candy plate with the same design, too cool!
Here are a bundle of pillows that rest on my bed. A mixture of crewel embroidery, lace, candle-wicking, chenille and patchwork. You name it and it's probably there - except it just occurred to me, I don't have any needlepoint. Guess that's next on my list!
Isn't this cute? Grabbed it at a tag sale several years ago for, I think, a dollar. It fit in perfectly with my room and the serenity I try to surround myself with just before I close my eyes for the night.
I know lots of you are married to the sweetie pie of your life, but I'm not, so close your eyes and don't look! I bought this door pillow oodles of years ago just when my husband turned forty, bought a Corvette and took off to Florida with his (younger) girlfriend leaving me to raise my sons and pay the mortgage. But, and I say this with all honesty, it's the best and nicest thing he ever did for me☺There you have my PINK SATURDAY for today! I've got loads of pink in my bedroom so next week you'll see more - I think! Until then, why don't you pop over to my foodie blog STANDING AT THE KITCHEN DOOR and make the delicious APPLE DUMPLINGS featured today!

Beautiful lamp Mimi. And the pillow is quite a remembrance:). Nice post.
Happy Pink Saturday. Enjoy the weekend.
Your pink sharings are gorgeous Mimi. The lamp is lovely - isn't it great you were able to find a dish with the same design on it.
Have a happy pink saturday and a fabulous week.
ciao for now,
Elena :)
ps: my pink sat post is on this blog - http://www.epdesigns.com.au/blog
I like it when before you close your eyes to sleep you get to be reminded to have sweet dreams. I guess now, that is not difficult anymore since that bad, bad man won't be giving you headaches anymore LOL
