Pink Saturday 4!

Happy Pink Saturday! It's just after 8pm Friday night where I live, so I'm getting my pink post ready now because Saturday mornings are always full of the usual family chaos at Jacaranda Cottage. If I don't get it ready now, I'm most likely to....gasp....FORGET! Can't have that now can we? lol I'd like to thank our lovely hostess with the mostess, Beverly from How Sweet The Sound, for hosting this fabulously fun, pretty pink event each week. Love ya sweetie!


Recently I did a little shopping at this lovely little lolly pink store......


and bought myself a cheeky little pink coin purse.......


and a gorgeous new pink handbag!


It was love at first sight.......promptly and completely...I fell in LOVE *sigh*


Wishing you sweetness and joy in your Pink Saturday too! Now do yourself a favour and scoot on over to Beverly's pink party by clicking on the title of this post. Go on, quick! lol

Love Amanda (aka Cottage Contessa) xxx

Good Morning/Evening Amanda,
"HAPPY PINK SATURDAY" to you as well. It' still Friday here at 6:13a.m.CST. I love the pink shop you shopped at. It is adorable. The pink coin purse and the other pink purse are just to die for. You sure do have some beautiful itmes over in Ausralia. I guess that's why they call it the Land of Down Under huh? I always enjoy visiting you and seeing what treasures you have found over there. "THANK YOU" for sharing your Pink SATURDAY treasures with us. Take care my friend and ahve agreat day and weekend. May GOD Bless you and yours.
Love,
Karen H.

I am lusting after your pink handbag! So Cute! I'm on the search for a new spring-summer bag right now.
I just heard fares to Australia are $598. I told my husband he could either buy the place in Huntington Beach or take me to Australia. I haven't got a comment from him yet...just a laugh! I think that was a reasonable offer, don't you?
Hugs, Susan

I am not at all a shoe or handbag person, but that does not mean that I can't see all the pink beauty and charm that they share. This looks like a great place to shop and your new bag is beautiful too, Happy Pink Saturday, Char

Happy Pink Saturday! I am posting a day late and a dollar short. Whew....looking at the Pink coin purse took my breath away. Then I saw you posted a Pink purse too. Now that I got my breath back I think I will pop on over to look at some other lovely Pink Saturday sites. Have a good day!

Wow! That house - I've never seen one that color even for a shop!

Yes, try the decopauged eggs - they're very easy. I made a few today with black toile tissue paper.
