PINK SATURDAY-Spring Is In The Air!
Despite the wee bit of snow we got overnight, I think that Spring is definitely in the air, don't you?
I'm drawn to all things Spring-y lately. Like this vintage kitchen towel I found at an estate sale. C'mon, those tulips scream SPRING!
And this old tablecloth, which also came from the estate sale. I think it will be perfect on the dining room table for Easter.
These old greeting cards are lovely, aren't they?
They were only 25 cents at my favorite antique shop.
Those are actual dried flowers on this one.
I pulled these seeds out of the fridge, and started daydreaming of the moment when I could start planting them. I actually do this several times over the course of the winter. It seems to make those cold months go by faster. Do you store your unused seeds in the fridge? I've got tons of them, some many years old, and they always germinate for me. I'm thinking an all-pink garden is in order this year. What do you think?
Please visit our hostess, Beverly, at How Sweet The Sound.
Happy Pink Saturday!

Lovin' your pretty tablecloth! I haven't stored seeds in the fridge, but since you say they stay good for years, it might not be a bad idea:@)
I love that you are so ready for spring. Love all your pink pretties.
Carol, I am ready for sting just like you. It cannot arrive soon enough to suit me. I even found a “spring count down” counter for my blog so I can watch the time closely. Your kitchen towel and vintage cards are so sweet, and the table cloth is lovely. HPS!
I just love Vintage everything, and your tablecloth, kitchen towel and greeting cards are wonderful.
Happy Pink Saturday,

Your cards are just beautiful. They just don't make cards like they used to.

A pink garden sounds like a beautiful dream, I hope you'll post some pictures of it.
In this last week we had more snow than all winter, so we have a long way till spring this year too.

lovely greeting cards and the kitchen towel is definitely spring-y looking! I'm sure your garden would be lovely with all the beautiful flowers seed you got there! Have a great weekend!
An all pink garden this year sounds divine! Love your spring tablecloths. I have just one that is a mint green, blue and pink and just screams Easter too. Can't wait to use it. I got my bunnies out last week for display. :)
My senior mom is right there with you as she pours over her gardening magazines, planning out her bird butterflies flowers and vege garden for the year! And what sweet family memories you've blessed me with. My grandmother had a tablecloth that was the same or very similar to yours. I saw that and immediately was reminded of her, whom I loved so much. Thank you for a delightful visit for Pink Saturday.
OH love the vintage tulip and dutch girl towel!
Hi Carol,
Love this pretty pink towel! The cards are adorable too! Happy PS! Wow, congrats on getting the number one spot.

An all pink garden sounds lovely and beautiful! Please share pics when it's all in bloom. I love your vintage finds - all of them! Thanks for sharing!
Love those linens and cards. My gardens are always pink. Happy Pink Saturday!
Such a pretty table cloth! I also love those old cards! Wonderful Pinks! I am ready for Spring! hugs, Linda
I am a big fan of linens of all kinds. These were a great find for you.
Hello Carol, stopping back to say thank you on your kind words about my sons deployment and homecoming!

I love all your stuff, but there is something about old cards. I love the one with the bird on it. Like you, I am ready for spring too! Holly said to thank you for enjoying her blog post yesterday! Have a great Sunday.
I had not heard of storing seeds in the fridge. I will try that in the future. Thanks for the tip.
Hi Carol, Happy PS! Wow, wonderful PINKS today! I'm drooling over that towel with the tulips! Back in 2001 Hubby took an assignment in Holland and the girls and I were able to go over and spend a month with him. It truly is a magical place and your towel brought back great memories. Thank you for sharing, Have a wonderful week, xxoo Nan
Pink makes me happy, and yours are gorgeous!

Oh, an all pink garden sounds delightful. I want to see lots of photos. ~ Sarah
Carol, thank you so much for your PS visit. I love your almost spring post. Especially the tablecloth. Beautiful.
Our weather has been awesome and I am waiting for a bad old frost to come and ruin all the buds. Sigh. I didn't know putting seed packets in the fridge was a good idea. I have some waiting too.
My sister's party was wonderful and she loved every minute of the fun, food and most of all, her family and friends who attended. She ended up with lots of lovely gifts, lovingly given from a crowd of 34 people to help her celebrate being 70.
Happy belated PS.
Hugs, Jeanne
Possibly the cutest kitchen towel ever. If I knew about putting seeds in the freezer I forgot, so thanks for the tip!
