This is my first time joining Pink Saturdays. I would like to thank Beverly for including me. Please stop here
to visit her and everyone else participating. I used the tutorial from this designer's blog
to make this little girl's tote for my niece. I really enjoyed learning how to search for and felt thrift store wool sweaters to make this. I really was hoping to find a soft pink but after going to 3 stores I realized I was lucky to find any pink at all that day. I'll have to keep looking. So I used what I found to make this for her First Communion next month. I will add inside a prayer book and a Miraculous medal for her to take to church.
This lamp has been in my family a long time. It used to be in my Grandmother's house, then my mother's house before being passed to me. It is gorgeous, not a chip to it. I wonder who hand painted it so many years ago. 
Here is a detail of the delicious painting. Such beauty in a few strokes. 
Thanks for visiting and I will be around to visit you all soon. Save a glass of iced tea for me.
