Pink Saturday Give Away Wins!!

Thanks Beverly for hosting
Pink Saturday yet again!
You can find Beverly at How Sweet the Sound
Go on over and check out others who are posting
for this lovely day.
You will probably notice I am posting on both of my
blogs for Pink Saturday.
So forgive me if I seem like a doozy or something.
I have a couple of Give Away wins I have not posted yet.
Well, the second one just came this week.
The first one is from my friend Jan
She has been doing Giveaways
as a way of downsizing her home.
I won this glass water pitcher from her.!
I was thrilled to win something from Jan.
Hard to see the pink lid in this picture.
You can see it better here!
The lid is handpainted.
And it is PINK. Yay!

Here is a side view.
Aren't those roses gorgeous.
Thank you Jan for picking me in your give away!

Then I entered Darlene's giveway.
The one with the cloche.
And happy day, I won!!
Now I have a cloche, whereas I did not have one at all
previously.
Darlene is over at Darlene's Days.
Thank you Darlene for picking me as the winner!!
~~~
Helmi had to jump in and help me with
my new package.
That is her sitting on the box there in the above picture.

Then she had to help me open it.
And promptly jumped onto the packaging pellets.
Helmi, you need to get out of there so I can get my winning cloche out of there.
Wait Neabear! Did you see that these packing thingies have pink on them?


Why yes Helmi! I can see the pink tinge on the packing pellots.
How appropriate for Pink Saturday!

Look Neabear!! There is a card here for you.

Oh how sweet Helmi! Darlene must have included that
card as part of the package.

Here is a close up of the front of the card.
It has PINK on it too!!

Oh look, Neabear! The base has a mirror.
I can see myself!
Helmi! Whatever are you doing in there?
I thought this was for me. But I can see I don't quite
fit in here.
Help Neabear! I am stuck and I can't get out!!
Ok Helmi, enough of that horsing around.
Time to out of there.
Neabear, I am not a horse!
I did not say you were a horse!
I said quite horsing around.
Whatever!
Now Helmi. This is what the cloche is for.
I can change what I have in there whenever I want.

Oh Neabear, that teacup and saucer looks very pretty in there.
Now I see how you are supposed to use this.
I see PINK in this teacup and saucer!
You are right Helmi.
There is some Pink in that teacup and saucer.
Thank you Helmi for helping me open my package.
Thank to everyone for visiting.
Happy Pink Saturday!!

Hi Linnea
The glass water pitcher you won is lovely. The lid is so pretty and unusual. I love the cloche you won too. It looks beautiful with the tea cup inside. I am glad you were there to rescue dear Helmi! I love how she is still wearing her handbag/purse just like Stella!
I was pleased to get your blog to download today. Sometimes my computer just freezes for some reason and can't download everything so I can't comment. Tim says maybe our cookies are full or something so we will have to look at that.
I wish you a great weekend.

Congratulations on your wonderful wins. Your water pitcher is absolutely stunning. I love the pretty roses. Just gorgeous. Your cloche is also to die for. It is definitely a wonderful treasure. Don't forget, we're having another "cloche party" in Sept. So put your thinking cap on and show us how many different ways you can decorate this gorgeous piece. Love the teacup inside. Congrats again. Hugs, Marty

Lori E said...

What nice gifts you have won. I also paint those Donna Dewberry type of roses but mine are not nearly as nice as those.
Thanks for stopping by. I will keep my eyes open for the play you were talking about.

Oh, Yea! Girl you made out like a bandit!

Glad you won the cloche! And look at Helmi... don't let her sit in there too long or she'll smother!!!

Love the pink roses on the pitcher which is perfect for Saturday! So pretty, Linnea.

Root bear floats??? I'll be right over. Wonder what happened to the ice cream you liked, though???

XO,

Sheila :-)

I am so glad the cloche made it there unbroken....I was worried about it! Glad that Helmi got out of it and you put that adorable cup and saucer under it (cute post). I am glad that you won it and will have fun changing out the things under it.
