Pink Saturday - Ann's Giveaway!

Precious Beverly at How Sweet the Sound hosts Pink Saturday. Please Pause at her Place to see Plenty of other Pretty Pink items that Precious Pink Participating People are Presently Presenting for your Perusing Pleasure.

Woo Hoo! Ann at Anne Fannie's Green Acres had a giveaway to celebrate her 200th post, and I won! She awarded a beautiful, handmade, Pink and white bird feeder to me here.

A huge package came in the mail Thursday while we were out. It was so big that the postal carrier left a note that it had to be picked up from the post office the following day. Take a look at the size of this package!


Here's how the bird feeder looked when Ann displayed it amongst her delightful daisies.

Look at the delicate Pink roses on this cup and saucer. Ann is so creative, and her work is precise. Check out her Etsy shop for some great gift ideas or if you're in the mood to pamper yourself.



(sigh) My setting is not so delightful, but the feeder adds a touch of beauty to my view.




Here it is, all set up and waiting for the first hungry bird to enjoy. Although it's a bird feeder, it could also be used as an ornament in a yard with a candle to help set the mood. Thanks, Ann!




See you in two days for Blue Monday!

    Oh Sally!
    Congrats honey. This is beautiful bird feeder. The birds will be so happy. Now if you had one more of those you could put water in it and have a little bird bath drink for them. How cute would that be? Love your post. Happy Pink Saturday. Please stop by and say hi. Country hugs, Sherry
