Keepers..

Ha!  Bet you thought I was going to talk about friends, friendships, fun but mushy stuff today.  Nope.  Keepers!

But first things first, thanks to our sweet Beverly at How Sweet the Sound for being our hostess each and every Saturday.  It’s a lot of work to get all these gals together each week, stop by and say hey to Beverly!

Now, back to my keepers..here is what I am talking about today

Now the scoop on why these are important to me..I sew, mostly aprons but other items also, and I use a LOT of ric rac and lace.  LOTS.  I found Pam on ETSY, she is from Great Britain and she designs and sells these keepers in pdf form for ME to print and cut out..then I wrap my goodies around them and it helps me to keep things more in order than ric rac and laces just tossed in a box.

You can check out Pam’s handiwork at From the Craft Room.  She designs not just keepers, but also gift tags, paper dolls, etc… that you can print and cut out..It’s fun to take some glitter and ribbon and embellish them also..so go check out her shop and tell her I sent you!

Each week we are asked to spotlight a Pink Saturday blogger who is new to US..meaning ME.  I would like to introduce you to Denise at All Over Roses.  Denise is not brand new to me, but I have just recently become acquainted with her and her beautiful blog..She also lives not far from my son and I plan to go visit her when I get nearby next time..Tell her I sent you!

And don’t forget that since it is Breast Cancer Awareness Month any orders from my Mary Kay website will get you 10% off and 10% total sale to the American Cancer Society.  Free shipping too!

Have a great Pink Saturday and you are all KEEPERS♥

  2. Barb, I have always loved ric rac but I have never seen it displayed so cute. I will have to go check out her site...I love paper dolls too. I'm honored and flattered you chose me to feature this week. You're a sweetie! Looking forward to our meeting next time you are in town.

    Have a wonderful Pink Saturday!

  12. Hi! What a great project you have going on. I have fabric and no help to make the aprons I was hoping to have ready for gift giving. :(
    I hope my sister-in-law knows what happened to my MILs sewing machine. I am not sure where my mom's went to. SO sad. :(
    But I am happy I came over. I also heard from a little bird something about a new baby in your family?!?! hmm...you better fill in the details girl! Hugs and Blessings Anne
