Pink Saturday

Is your Saturday filled with Pink?
It could be....join us for Pink Saturday, hosted by Beverly.


Years ago, when my Grandma passed away, my sister and I had a box of her doilies. We divided them between us. It was fun, we each took a turn and chose a doily...it was like a card game. I remember saying "what will I do with these?". My sister said I should just put them all over, that is what Grandma did with them. Well, I did that. And, I have since added to my collection over the years.



My favorite doilies are the colorful ones. It's easy to find white or beige, colors are more rare.


And, with all the doilies I have, there are only 2 that are pink! One of these days I am going to learn how to make them myself!!

Now....fix a lovely cup of tea....settle in....and head on over to Beverly's for lots and lots of lovely pink!

  2. I love your doilies...my Granny made a lot of those too and when she passed away last January I got most of them...my sister and I were the only granddaughters and none of the granddaughters-in-law wanted any

  9. Hi Stephanie!
    Those doilies are just precious. My grandma used to have them as well but I have no idea what became of them. I'll have to ask my Aunt Hope.

    Have a great Pink Saturday!
    Deanna :D

  12. Yes the museum is in Santa Rosa. They have rotating displays every so often. I think 3 or 4 times a year or something like that. That way we see different things each time we go. On area stays the same all the time though and that is the section about Charles Schulze's life.

  13. Oh, and I love the doilies. I started making a red one. I found it, but now I need to find the pattern I was making it from and see if I can finish it.
