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!

I really don’t need another angel in my collection – well, at least according to my son. He says if I get any more they are going to have to declare my condo a cathedral. lol But I simply could not resist this lovely Angel of Gratfulness that I saw on QVC recently. It’s done by Jim Shore who is one of my favorite artists. I’ve only got a few of his things, but definately want to get more.

I’m still not sure where she is going to “live.” I was thinking in the kitchen since the pink in her apron goes perfectly with the pinks in the painted enamel I have on the ledge in the kitchen. She might also look nice in what I’m calling my “day room” – but that’s still a work in progress.

In case anyone is interested, these pictures were taken in my studio in front of a curtained window. The curtains are called “Kitchen Garden Tier Curtains” and I purchased them from Country Curtains.


Happy Independence Day America

I’d also like to wish my fellow Americans a Happy Fourth of July! Hope you have a wonderful day and take a moment to remember why we celebrate our freedom and how important that is to each of us. God Bless America!


Happy Fourth of July!
