  1. Hello and welcome to Pink Saturday. I love the treasures you chose to share with us, especially the pink Santa by Jim Shore. What a unique piece; it’s easy to see how that would be a favorite. And how special that it was your mother’s favorite. Thank you for sharing these charming holiday favorites with us! ~Arleen

  3. Happy Pink Saturday, and Welcome Mercedes!!!!
    You will find this community so lovely and fun.
    What a beautiful room, and filled with pink touches! The Santa looks beautiful all rosey.

    I couldn’t help but notice the purse in the first picture and admired it so.
    Then I read you have a web-site that carries them. I am checking that out! I love that purse.

    Again, welcome and I have enjoyed my visit with you!
