Pretty in Pink Table Jewelry ready to go to Wimberley Trade Day on Saturday...Pink Saturday, that is. I made these sweet pink table favors from old corks. Usually I leave the corks unpainted with their natural colors showing. They add a flashy fun decorative touch to a wine and cheese tray. But the Pink Saturday posts inspired me to do a couple of pink sets. Thank you, Beverly for the inspiration!!!
And the soft color called for lovely quotations to set the mood. And I remembered an old ME calendar titled "Words to Live By" . So I cut out a few dozen phrases, got out the paint and set to work.
First the corks got a coat of pink paint, then a lovely quote was added. Finally they were wrapped with coils of bright wire and multi-colored beads both contemporary and vintage.
I can't wait to set a tea table decorated with my latest recycling project. Stop by Beverly's blog the see this Saturday's list of blogs to visit. I'd post the link, but I'm not that far along in my "Blogs for Dummies" lessons. Somehow I did it last week, but I've slept a couple of times since then and didn't wake up with the memory intact...Have a pink week. Think Pink; it's alovely state of mind.
