I especially love your Grandma's dishes! I was in need of some new bakeware accessories, so for Christmas, my sister bought me PINK measuring cups, spoons and rubber spatulas (from Wm. Sonoma, but I'm sure you can find them in many stores)! They make me smile when I use them! :-)Laurenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15649159233453593925noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2660197240885544447.post-29285574515830056342009-06-13T23:26:23.155-04:002009-06-13T23:26:23.155-04:00Jerelene, you are too cute!

I love it!<br /><br />Jill, I so agree about pink being a true 'girl' color! That's why I don't decorate with it too much, but I really would like some for spring and summer and then go back to the more 'masculine' colors come fall and winter.<br /><br />Thanks, Rebecca (beautiful name!), I paid a visit to your blogs, very nice, uplifting!<br />I feel a little bad for my husband with all my florals and pastels lately, but he's good.

You give everyone such good ideas!<br /><br />Marcy, so glad my blog is being friendlier to you! I thought of the European handles after my Aunt complained about her arthritis and how hard the round door knobs are for her to turn. And they really are easier for everyone. I love the look of the vintage glass knobs, but they are not practical.<br />And, Marcy, our very first kitchen was blue and white, I loved it. It looked so clean and bright!

Pink is my favorite color and until a couple of months ago I had pink in almost every room in my house. I have always preferred pastels, but like you I went for a new look and am now into greens/burgundy/pinks and creams. I always love flowers. Your lucky to have Ray to help you as I paid $2500 to have 3 bedrooms, 1 bathroom and a hall painted in Feb. It does look lovely and fresh though. I posted pictures in earlier post. <br />Have a wonderful Wednesday and may all your plans come true......:-) HugsBerniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03024565921761129108noreply@blogger.com
