I just found this today and I am sooo IN!  According to Karen at Some Days are Diamonds “What fun we shall all have! Parties and giveaways, tours and workshops, sharing creations and ideas - all of this is in store for all of us. From home decor to crafting, our days will be full of fun in the months ahead. I've received some AWESOME ideas for our new Sisterhood from all of you and I am really looking forward to bringing it all to fruition.”

This blogging business has really added so much to my life.  I truly have met the most wonderful ladies and a few gents, and it is truly a sisterhood..we care about each other, we cry with each other and we laugh with each other..

So..why not come about and join our Bloggerette Sorority??  Hop on over to Some Days are Diamonds and join in the fun?!  See YOU there!

Pink Saturday …aprons?

Ok, got your attention!  Welcome to my Saturday!  First, many thanks to the sweet Beverly at How Sweet the Sound for being our hostess with the mostest!  She goes to sooo much work every week for us, please hop over and say hello and visit some of the other pinkies!

Now, about my subject of the day APRONS.  I am hooked.  I admit it.  I belong to a couple of apron swap groups online, Flirty Apron Swap and Hot Mama Apron Swap and am in the midst of my 3rd apron.  The first one I purchased since I don’t really sew, but the 2nd I made.  Myself. And I.  I sent it off to my swap partner Becca this past week and she sent me a sweet note that she loved it.  Now it’s not pink, but it’s HOT! this is what I made and sent to her:

Gotta love those senoritas!  I also included a darling tea towel, a margarita shaped cookie cutter and recipe, and a margarita scented candle..Glad you are enjoying them, Becca!  Maybe we can encourage her to join us in our pinkness on Saturdays!

I have not received my 2nd apron yet, but I know it’s on its way soon, but here is the first apron I received from a lovely gal named Glenda who is a young mom.  I use it all the time! It’s a lovely soft pink with brown polka dots and trim..along with a cookbook, a cool reusable bag with chickens on it, and some cutie patootie tea towels!

Now, I found these cute pink aprons online and wanted to share, where I could I gave credit to the website or seller..

The above apron is so vintage 40’s looking, so sweet!

How about these paper dolls, love it!

May be purchased at Etsy Shop Jill Ruth

I have found that ETSY carries a ton of vintage patterns and so many unique fabrics..it’s really my favorite go-to for my shopping needs anymore..

Before I go..I would like to introduce a fairly new blogger and one of our Pinkies to you, Kim at Blue Heron Cottage .  This week’s post marks her 3 month blogoversary so I know she would love you to pop over and say hey!

Well have a wonderful week, I hope you enjoyed these pretty aprons and would love to hear back from you!
