Welcome to Pink Saturday, hosted by Beverly @ How Sweet the Sound.
The weather was wet and drizzling a few days ago so I went shopping for pink!
A pair of pink Johnson Bros plates with a big pink rose, little blue flowers and green leaves. I think they'll add a bit of whimsy to my St Patrick's Day tablescape!
Ah, so sweet!
Cups and saucers in my favorite Spode Botanical pattern.
A couple of new mugs, also in my favorite Spode botanical pattern!
I finally broke down and bought New PINK kitchen scissors! This may look a bit peculiar, but my hubby is a kleptomaniac for scissors and measuring tapes! I think the pink will stand out when I'm frantically searching tables and drawers because he took off with the scissors again. He always denies having them, then has an "oh yeah" moment as I wave them around and complain. The old black handles just disappear on whatever they're lying on.
Enjoy!

I LOVE YOU PLATES...THEY ARE SO PRETTY.
I AGREE WITH BUYING THE PINK SCISSORS FOR THE HUBBY THAT PICKS UP SCISSORS AS HE STROLLS ABOUT....THAT IS MY HUSBAND....I HAVE TO HIDE HIS TOOLS SO HE WILL ASK ME FOR THEM BECAUSE HE NEVER KNOWS WHERE HE LEFT THEM.
BLESSINGS

Diane, I love your pink dishes SO much! And I think we all need a pair of those pink scissors! :-)
Happy Pink Saturday...
XO,
Sheila :-)
Hi Diane...what pretty pinks...I laughed about the scissors going missing...not because it was funny, but because my DH does the same thing around here. ;-) Bo
We could never find a pair of scissors . . . until our DD left home for college -- then the 30 pairs all showed up! We've not had a problem since!
Love the Spode pink!
You husband may not want to stroll around with pink scissors so this may have been a smart move! LOL
Happy Pink Saturday.
I love those scissors.And of course your new dishes.What a wonderful thing to do when it's raining.GOS SHOPPING`````````.
Nope,i haven't a clue where i got anything,but "someone"else,I think it was Dixie,told me she does the same thing.And she titles it where she got it.DUH_________so since then I have benn labeling.But if i get any feedback on it i'll come tell you.I'm guessing Horchow.it's just a guess...Ann
First, yes, I have to put it away...sometimes, and it goes into it's little pinkie house!
Second, those plates! Those should be mine! I could eat little cookies made by elfs when I'm using my pinkie laptop and pinkie mousie!
Those scissors should be safe. Thanks for sharing; Happy Pink Day.

Beautiful plates and cups...have to admit I don;t have any in pink but these are just gorgeous!
LOL @ the scissors..I purchased an entire "tool kit" all in pink so the men in the house wouldn't touch them..and haven't !
Smart idea to have pink scissors - that way you know they are yours!
Love the plates and cup & saucer - so pretty! Linda
Your china is beautiful. Happy pink Saturday
Happy Pink Day!!!
Great pink items!!!
Terrific finds in your china patterns! My scissors disappear too. Maybe the pink trick will work around our house as well. Hmm...
Happy Pink Saturday!

I love your plates! Thank you for sharing your Pink!
Happy Pink Saturday!
Jennifer
I love those plates! I NEED those plates!
I Love Spode, but usually it is too pricey for me. Still I love that you shared these great pieces with us!
Happy Pink Saturday
Beautiful dishes!! I need a pair of pink scissors too...maybe dh would be to embarrassed to use them and they could finally stay where I put them! Lol Hope you're having a great weekend! :-) L~
Ha' great idea with the scissors. Though I shamelessly admit to using Phil's scissors and not returning them to their home. He even wrote his name on them. pfffffft!! what nerve.
Your plates are stunning. I love them.
Your previous post was just the cutest. The dog photos made me smile and the quotes are so true.
The one about alpo just cracked me up.
Happy PS
Kris
What beautiful finds. I love the plate and cups and saucers. Very nice.
Happy Pink Saturday.
Kris
Love square plates...an uncommon shape that just makes them memorable
Beautiful plate and cups! Have a grand weekend.
Gina Jo
In my house, I'm usually the culprit. Tell DH that real mean don't use pink scissors. lol
Sweet find indeed. Aren't you just fortunate to fins such beautiful china?
Oh what better way to make your crafting more enjoyable than by using pink scissors :-)
Your Johnson Bros. dishes are so pretty! The colors, shape and pattern are so sweet....Christine
I'm thinking that maybe hubby won't want to use pink scissors. Might slight his masculinity. Good move, girl!
Love the plate! Soooooo pretty!
Justine :o )
Well, how neat! I don't think I've ever seen pink scissors. Yet. I find I'm keeping my eyes open for PINK now that I've joined in Pink Saturday. Your plates and cup are sooo pretty too!
Love you pink - including those pink scissors... Good idea! I'm going to get a pair for my new office. Also - loved those doggie pictures! Made me smile real big!
I love all of your plates and cups! I have never seen pink scissors before.
I love the Johnson Bros. plate - I have rose chintz china, but have never seen in the plate with the pink border! Oh no, I think I have another obsession coming! Happy Pink Saturday!
Diane, you made AWSOME suggestions on my mantel! As I said, it's a work in progress...as I have real "brain freeze" when it comes to that mantel! Love the idea of framing out the crosses and elevating the second candle! THANK YOU so much for stoppin' by and your input! :-) L~
i absolutely love the spod botanical pattern, can you get it anywhere? I'm based in England and am currently researching for my kitchen redesign. I've just signed the contract for a hand made kitchen so am on the look out for something to inspire me. i would really like to create a room that makes me feel the way i feel looking at some of your pictures all calm but cheerful and happy. I have a young family at the moment and we're extending the house to make room for our third child and lucky me i get a new kitchen too. I'm having to live elsewhere though as the building work is at an open house stage and my 9 month old can do without the draft. it'll all be worth it though in the end.
I love the tea cup. It is a really pretty shade of pink.. my favorite color!!!!!!! :)
I could go for a nice cup of hot tea!
Hi Diane,
Thank you for visiting my blog and now I get to meet you and visit you beautiful blog. The pink Spode cups are my favorite . I have the same pattern in blue and would love to find them in pink.
Loved meeting your adorable animal family.
Have a lovely week.
Blessings,
Erin

Hi Diane! I love your new plates! Just gorgeous! And of course I love your Spode! The pink scissors are a good idea! Have a great weekend...Debbie
Hi Diane!
I so LOVE your new plates...pretty!
Wherever did you find those scissors...I need some, too! Mine are ugly orange...which disappear, too...I'd put pink scissors in a different drawer so my Prince wouldn't know where they are!
Have a fabulous day!
;-D
Hi Diane, I just wanted to pop in to say hi. I am still lurking around Blogeville. Are you cooking up another pink saturday post or are you just enjoying this wonderful weather we've been having?
Adorable plates...and you know what? I WANT those pink scissors!! I've never seen pink scissors and of course, I just don't have enough of that color. ;)
