This Saturday my pink is the pretty ribbon on this box that holds my giveaway!

The other pink I am sharing this weekend is the pink Prize...

A set of three of my wooden candy cane ornaments.

I painted them pink and white and sugared them with sparkly glass glitter.

I added one of my hand made clay roses to each( of course in pink).

Then, pearly accents and a pink bow.

They have an eye screw at the top to hang on your tree, garland or wreath. They also look wonderful as bowl-fillers.

They are about 6" long each.

Personalized Ornaments

A wonderful gift for the holidays that would be treasured for years to come is a hand painted personalized ornament. They are great for sisters, daughters, Mom, Grandma, girlfriends, hairdresser, teacher, newlyweds... They can be dated with the year, a birth date, an anniversary, or no date.

The ornaments sparkle beautifully on the tree because they are sugared with fine glass glitter.

These ornaments are currently available at Rose Brook Cottage.

Blessings,

And The Winner Is...

I'm a little late posting for Pink Saturday this morning. My computer is giving me a difficult time, so I am borrowing my son's.

Thank you Beverly of How Sweet the Sound for hosting Pink Saturday each week.
Pay Beverly a visit to see her pink post for today and to see a list of other bloggers participating in Pink Saturday.

For Pink Saturday this week I am sharing another of my teapots and a matching teacup and saucer. This one is Lefton Green Heritage. It has the prettiest pink roses. It is a bit fancier than most in my collection. This is my daughters favorite. For some reason I think it is going to be hers in years to come :)

Happy Pink Saturday!

Pink Saturday Tea Time

Happy Pink Saturday! Thank you sweet Beverly from How Sweet the Sound for hosting this fun weekly event.

For Pink Saturday I am sharing one of my teapots. I have a collection of teapots that have all been gifts to me for various occasions. Most are displayed in my dining room, but I do use each from time to time :)

This teapot with cup and saucer is pink and white with pretty light pink, dark pink and purple roses. It is Royal Albert's Rose Garland. I love the flower shaped handle on the lid.

Hope you have a lovely Pink Saturday! And if you are ever in my neighborhood, stop by for a cup of tea! :)

My First Pink Saturday!

This is my first Pink Saturday. I am so excited to be a part of it! Thank you Beverly of How Sweet the Sound for including me in the fun.

For my very first Pink Saturday I am sharing my collection of pink buttons. I love to sew and have a large collection of pretty buttons. I also use them for crafts, mosaics and scrapbooking.

In this jar with my hand painted pink rose on top, tied with a pink seam binding ribbon and a metal pink heart charm, I keep just the pink buttons. Some are vintage and some are newer, but all so pretty!

Thanks for stopping by today and Happy Pink Saturday!

A Place For Everything...And Everything In It's Place!

Storage is so important for an organized, neat home. It makes life so much easier to know where things are when you need them. A place for everything! I am always looking for ways to be more organized in my home.

Cottage storage is as pleasing to look at as it is functional. Vintage baskets, suitcases and train cases, pretty stacking boxes, wooden chests are just a few ways to organize your cottage home.

I often offer storage options in my listings. Boxes, baskets, traincases, tubs, desk organizers, mail organizers to name a few. Take a look below to see some previously and presently offered items in my ebay store painted up rose cottage style. And keep checking back to see what new storage items I'm offering in my listings!

Vintage lunch boxes are so pretty and functional painted pink:

Used in any room of your home, vintage wooden boxes and chests are essentials:

You'll find baskets in all shapes and sizes in a rose cottage:

Sweet and functional stacking hat boxes:



Keep your desk, your mail and workspace organized, you'll find what you need in a snap:

Vintage train cases...repurpose and recycling at it's best:

Storage tubs and tins painted cottage style great for any room of the house,

& for so many purposes:

Hope you have a wonderful week!

This Is For The Birds!

I have a few birdhouse themed items coming up or already posted on my ebay .

Just wanted to share a few with you.

*******

First, a decorative birdhouse ... a rose cottage for the birdies.

Also added my clay roses to the roof of this birdhouse.

Next, a wooden bird house tote or caddy. This is a great size.

Could store some magazines in this one, or towels in the guest bath.

Finally, a birdhouse peg shelf. All pretty in pink.

This says rose cottage chic all over it!

Hope you have a wonderful week and

thanks for stopping by!

Pink Clay Roses

From time to time, I offer items adorned with my hand made pink clay roses on my ebay or my etsy. Mostly I am painting, but if time allows, I hand make pink roses petal by petal. I put them on such things as Christmas ornaments, Easter egg ornaments, picture frames, boxes and bird houses. I do take custom orders for items, especially the Christmas ornaments, as they take a bit of time to make.
It's amazing how these little pink roses transform an item into something so pretty and cottage sweet!

Take a look at some items I have embellished with my clay roses...

Hope you have a beautiful day!
