Make Mine Pink * Pink Fridays



This Friday join Katies Rose Cottage and Make Mine Pink for our Pink Friday shopping event ~

This week's theme is "In the Hope Chest "

I remember when I was a little girl going up to my Great Grandma's attic ~ it was filled with treasures from years and generations past ~ it was so much fun to hear the stories of each treasure lovingly put away in trunks and chests ~

When I was in High School my mom and dad gave me a hope chest that I filled with special linens and other things that I would someday use in my own home ~ these were things that my grandmas and mom would pass down to me or things that I collected that I loved ~

Have fun shopping and dreaming ~

My mom and aunt also had a trunk given to them in high school - it must have been "the thing to do" back in the 60's/70's. My mother stored all kinds of neat things in it, where my aunt put her cheerleading outfits and other fun stuff from high school in hers. I loved looking at it all!! I hope to someday give Madison one of her own :) Hope you are well rested and everything is back to normal after your vacation, thinking of you!! I want to see more Disneyworld pics!! xo

Congrats on your dress form in the Artful Blogging magazine. It looked beautiful. I get the dress form thing and they don't look scary when they have a name. I always name mine after my husbands grandmother. Her name was Marvis Delight .... makes it easy to keep up with all of them. Thanks for your comment. See you in Canton. Stop by and say hi.
