Pink Saturday...

Today's Pink Saturday,  hosted by Beverly of How Sweet the Sound is all about inspiration...
here is the link to Colette and her miracle makeover...great story!!! and makeover! Go and check it out!

Where do I find inspiration?....YOU...there are sooo many amazing, talented and inspiring women out there, each with different stories...!

Life reminds me of a rose bush...


sometimes perfect...


sometimes not...


sometimes a little thorn...


sometimes alot of thorns...


and sometimes loss...
I believe hope and inspiration are something each of us has to find on our own...you have to be open to look for it!

the perfect shade of blue green with big cabbage roses...


sweet plaques...


remember those sweet shabby plates from Target?...well since I love this look, I was soooo happy when I found this web design...


the one I had was just one I had found on sale, until I could find one that I knew was the one!!!! Lots of roses, pretty colors and some yummi rust.
I love it, go by and take a look Here
so since I am sooooo happy with it and I am almost at 500 followers, I think I am going to start thinking of something special for a giveaway!!!!
Hope you have a wonderful weekend!

and ruffles.


how dainty every detail is...

inspiration...

I have my family room almost cleared out, and luckily have sold alot of items...

so now I am trying to decide how high I want to put my wall...I scanned some of my inspiration pictures from magazines...



low...source Romantic Homes...


medium high...source Romantic Homes...



or high...source Pottery Barn.
I love all these looks!!!!  So I think I am going to get the top chair rail and tape a piece to the wall and see which one I like best...these magazines shouldn't have soooooo many gorgeous rooms...it makes it hard.
