It's Pink Saturday and my favorite colored day of the week. Time flies past so quickly, it seems like I just wrote a Pink Saturday post...
Many years ago, my grandmother bought a pair of sweet bisque figurines for me at Disneyland. I always thought of the girls as "sisters" and treasured them because Grandma bought them. Now I'm sharing them with you for Pink Saturday. The "sisters" are standing next to one of my mom's plates.
Please visit Beverly's blog at How Sweet the Sound to see the list of Pink Saturday participants.
Enjoy!

Oh my, they are adorable. What treasures to have as a memory of your grandmother. Both of mine passed away before I was born, so anyone who has had a relationship with their grandmother has a treasure indeed.
The sisters are so pretty, Diane, and so is the plate!...Christine
Happy Pink Saturday!

Those young ladies are adorable! Like you said the must be sisters. They should be! :-)
Their Mama must have sent them off to the field to pick flowers for the table :-)
How sweet to have something your gradma gave you and even sweeter they have a bit of pink. I love the plate displayed in the center.

I love Disney and your figurines are as lovely as a beautiful rose. The plate is also beautiful, thankyou for the share and Happy Pink Saturday, Char
I post under the name of someplace in thyme and not english cottage rose. That is a Friday Flea Market selling site and I can't seem to find a way to change it.
How sweet! I don't think I have anything that my grandparents had bought me as a kid. Dang, I'm jealous!

Thank you, Diane...Happy St. Patty's to you, too!

hey sunshine! got your question. all I do to keep the wood heathy in my window boxes is drill holes for drainage, use plastic pots inside instead of directly putting soil inside the wooden part, (you can get long skinny square ones) and Paint them. Even treating them with an outdoor clear coat is better than nothing at all!
