Pink Saturday – Handpainted Porcelain
Posted by Sandra under Collectables, My Favorite Things, Pink Saturday
It’s Pink Saturday again at Cottage Dreamer! Thanks to Beverly at How Sweet The Sound for once more hosting this fun day of sharing all things Pink!
Today I’d like to share some photos of part of my handpainted porcelain collection. These are newer items compared to most that I have. I purchased them from someone on eBay who, sadly, I haven’t seen offering any similar items lately. I do suppose I have enough “stuff” now – but there always seems to be room for just one more thing on a side table or dresser. I guess that’s why we call them collections – we really never stop wanting to add more – do we?
This first item is a beautiful china painted heart trinket box. I keep it on my nightstand and it holds my rings, a necklace my son bought me, and my gold stud earrings.



Another box is the follow egg-shaped one which has a very small vial inside for holding perfume.


Last of the items that I would consider appropriate for a dressing table – if I had one – is this perfume bottle. Maybe I’ll find room one of these days to put up a small dressing table so I can fill it with lots of “pretties.”


And finally, I have a really pretty mug that all, like all the rest, has been painted with beautiful pink tea roses.

Thank you for stopping by to see what I’ve got for Pink Saturday. Also, you might want to scroll down to the post below this to see what I’ve got for my Give Away. Each month Cindy from My Romantic Home is holding a give away listing for herself and other bloggers who want to offer something to their readers. Just a reminder, I chose to close my give away at midnight Eastern time so some of the Pink Saturday gang could make a comment to the post below and get a chance. So, mark your calendars for the second Monday in each month to see what the gals listed at Cindy’s are giving away!
Have a wonderful weekend!
PS – I would appreciate prayers for my dad – who is 88 and in the hospital down in Florida. He periodically has problems with breathing (congestive heart disease) and will be going through the usual set of tests. I know he’ll be fine, but knowing that there are others out there asking for blessings for him helps. Thank you. Sandra

These all look like they were painted by the same hand: what a perfect match! How lucky is that?
