Mother's Got A Thing For Pink!

I just returned from East Tennessee, where I was visiting my parents. My mother is the original pink lady! I imagine it is where I learned to love pink so much. I thought I would share pictures today of my parents living room. If you would like to see more pink posts, go to How Sweet the Sound.

This is the living room. There is lush pink carpeting, a white brocade sofa with pink pillows, and several other upholstered pieces - all shades of pink!

My dad refinished this beautiful settee. The fabric is a pink rose print.

I made this pink sachet for Mom.

A beautiful pink angel sits atop a deep rose table which I painted for Mom years ago.

The lamp is an antique from my grandparent's home. The shade is a gorgeous pink silk with fringe.

Mom loves pretty things. Isn't this basket lovely? It's filled with pink and white dried blossoms.

Another chair Dad refinished. It's upholstery is a deep raspberry pink brocade.

Another pink chair...

Mom is a dish-a-holic like me. This tea pot was my grandmothers, manufactured by Hull.

My grandmother's china is the most beautiful I have ever seen. It is Haviland, Apple Blossom.

Even Mother's garden is totally pink...mandevilla.

Baskets of pink surround the pool and decking...

Seas of pink Zinnias dot the hills around Mom and Dad's home.
