Hearts, Red Roses and the Color Pink


Hearts, red roses and the color pink are a winning combination.

So, naturally, when coming across the sweet decoration, shown in today's post, at a yard sale, I bought it . 

It was under $1.00 and makes me happy every time I see it.

It's currently on the enclosed side porch, along with the heart below, which I made by gluing pieces of colored plastic onto a board. 


One of sisters, who is an artist, painted the floral border.

Such sweetness! Such simplicity!  And all for just pennies. 

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE COLOR AND WHY?

I love pink too and for me what it stands for. I do have to say my favorite color is teal. I do love your pink and roses!

Well, I join those who are fans of pink! I also like blue and white in decorating the house, though that doesn't seem to be very apparent.:)

I do love pink too and any shade of red. I just finished painting an Adirondack chair that was looking a little tired. Guess what colors? Pink and white! It looks great.

Very pretty combination of red roses and pink border; a nice companion piece to the one you already had.

My favorite colors are blues and greens although my house is in neutral colors. Enjoy your new pink purchase.

I like blue, it's a very cool colour but our climate is very warm sometimes.

... Hello Susan...
I like your pretty pink purchase.....

I don't have a favourite colour.. I just love colour......
I usually dress in dark neutrals and wear bright multi coloured jackets or scarves....
My house is decorated in greys, whites, and peachy pink....with little 'pops' of bright colour here and there... I have lovely silk flowers in the main rooms and change the colours of these to suit my mood... xxx
I loved your Granddaughter's tea party and your Grandmother's rocking chair is gorgeous.. I LOVEthe cushions...
Have a great day...
Hugs... Barb xxx

Susan, you are very creative and talented! And I'm not a bit surprised that you're also a writer! I love what you did with the plastic pieces. Very cool. I don't have a favorite color....it's just whatever "hits" me at the time, for whatever reason!

I love purple because it reminds me that I am a daughter to the King of Kings and The Lord of Lords. :)
