Today I would love to show you some little Pink 'what nots' as my Mother would call them...
Today I would love to show you some little Pink 'what nots' as my Mother would call them...
Aren't these very sweet and Pink!? Well, they belonged to my grandmother. She passed away when I was three years old ~ that was 53 years ago! Yes, I know, I'm old...but I'm so very Pink and young at heart! I really don't remember her, I'm so sorry to say, but I have inherited her little Pink 'what nots'. They're really very small, the largest being about 5 inches high. I wonder where my grandmother got these ~ did she buy them or were they given to her as gifts? She never realized her baby granddaughter would have these in her home so many many years later. I know they're small, I know they're not very expensive, but I'm very proud and thankful to have these little Pink 'what nots' from my grandmother.
So I bring a little Pink nostaglia to you today.
uh oh...

I'll leave you with a little Note Song ~
This Kiss
I don’t want another heartbreak
I don’t need another turn to cry
I don’t want to learn the hard way
Baby, hello, oh, no, goodbye
But you got me like a rocket
Shooting straight across the sky
It’s the way you love me
It’s a feeling like this
It’s centrifugal motion
It’s perpetual bliss
It’s that pivotal moment
It’s impossible
This kiss, this kiss (Unstoppable)
This kiss, this kiss
Cinderella said to Snow White
How does love get so off course
All I wanted was a white knight
With a good heart, soft touch, fast horse
Ride me off into the sunset
Baby, I’m forever yours
It’s the way you love me
It’s a feeling like this
It’s centrifugal motion
It’s perpetual bliss
It’s that pivotal moment
It’s unthinkable
This kiss, this kiss (Unsinkable)
This kiss, this kiss
You can kiss me in the moonlight
On the rooftop under the sky
You can kiss me with the windows open
While the rain comes pouring inside
Kiss me in sweet slow motion
Let’s let every thing slide
You got me floating, you got me flying
It’s the way you love me
It’s a feeling like this
It’s centrifugal motion
It’s perpetual bliss It’s that pivotal moment
It’s subliminal
This kiss, this kiss (It’s Criminal)
This kiss, this kiss

Hi Shelia, Hello from Cape Hatteras, we are braving Hannah right now, house is swaying in the wind! Just had to stop by and say hello and Happy Pink Saturday! I love your little pink "what nots". My mother always called them that also. I remember her and my Aunt looking for a certain size what not shelf! Thank you for the memory! Chloe Dawn you look beautiful in Mommy's lipstick!

ReplyDeleteSmoochies,

ReplyDeleteWell, Miss Texas, now I know that you have some Northern roots as "what-nots" are a Northern tag. (Note please, that Shirl's mom used that expression as did my mom who was born and raised in PA.
ReplyDeleteThose pink trinkets of your grandmother's are quite pretty! I like when I have something that belonged to one of my relatives it makes me feel closer to them and remember them!
ReplyDeletetake care,
Dawn
Happy Pink Saturday!

ReplyDeleteHappy Pink Saturday, Shelia.
ReplyDeleteI imagine your grandmother would be so pleased that her granddaughter treasures these pretty little things. They are a special reminder of someone that would have loved you very much.
Kisses to Chloe Dawn. And, you're not old because if you are that means I am, too. And, I'm definitely not. ;-)
Sheila, I love to visit your posts and today is no exception. Your grandmother's little pink things are a blessing to have. Lucky you.
ReplyDeleteYour diva list is growing and is a hoot. Chloe Dawn has beautiful pink lips. So cute. Smile. This Kiss is awesome by Faith Hill.
Hugs and kisses, Jeanne
Those are beautiful. Those are the kind of little pretties I LOOK for when I'm out and about. How special that yours belonged to your Grandmother. OMGosh I love them. So Pretty. By the way I really was going to put pink bows on my dog for PINK Saturday but ended up doing something else..so I laughed when I saw yours. Great ladies think alike. LOL. Wendy
ReplyDeleteOoh, Pat has such awesome hair! I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! She's got that perfect white color and the cut is superb! GO PAT! You're gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteLove your pink stuff this week, but especially Chloe Dawn! Oh, she's so precious with bows on her ears and pretty pink lips!

Hi Shelia ~ I love your Grandma's pink vases. They may not be expensive, but they are Priceless.

Love all your pretty pink "what nots"! And Chloe is just all done up!
ReplyDeleteKathy
You crack me up...here I was feeling all nostalgic seeing your Grandmother's pink what nots...and then bam!...That baby girl Chloe Dawn shows up and steals the show..
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful weekend.. ;-) Bo
I grew up hearing pretties referred to as "what nots." And that is an apt term--better than "accessories." Oh, the good old days. Your vases are beautiful--so full of detail.
ReplyDeleteHi Shelia :)
ReplyDeleteI'm so happy Pat joined us! We're a growing Diva Cult LOL
I love your grandma's what-nots. I think she would be thrilled to know you love them :)
hugs,
rue
In my family, we always called them knick knacks. Those are so pretty, and made especially precious because they belonged to your grandma. I'm sure she'd be pleased that even if you don't remember her, that she is thought of when you look at her pretty things!
ReplyDeleteLove the ribbons and the kissing lips on Chloe Dawn! She looks almost good enough to kiss...wait, nah. I'll pass, lol.
Kady
Love, love, love your little treasures and to have something pasted down from your grandmother is really neat. I'm still giggling about Chloe Dawn. You are an inspiration. I love to read your posts.
ReplyDeleteShelia I love your Pink Saturday post.

Wonderful Pink~ness!
