  • Pink Twilight Sale Tonight

    Pink Twilight Sale Tonight



    Remember the excitement of the Moonlight Madness sales when you were a kid?

    I remember being out late in our local department store with my mother, just waiting for the exciting chaos when a special sale was announced. Shoppers raced from all corners of the store in hot pursuit of a bargain that we were sure we couldn't live with out. Well Make Mine Pink has added that fun back into weekend shopping with the Make Mine PINK TWILIGHT sale.

    From 6:00pm-midnight EST on Saturday, you will find unbelievable buys from the Make Mine Pink boutique owners! 6 Hours and 6 hours only - once a month you'll see buys like never before on make Mine Pink. Mark your calendars so that you don't miss this new, monthly event. The first one starts tomorrow October 17th at 6:00PM Est.

    The sale items will all show up on one easy to shop section, but as quickly as they appear, they'll be gone at midnight.

    Come have some fun if you dare!

  • March Into Spring Shop Hop

    March Into Spring Shop Hop

    You're Invited!!

    Starting March 16th!
    The joyful march into spring begins, a cacophony of bird calls fills the blue skies, the trees show their fresh green buds, and the tulips start to poke their heads from the earth to face the sunshine. Colors are about to burst forth, and the earth will be new again. With fresh eyes, we are stocking our shelves with pretty greens, bright yellows, vibrant pinks, and beautiful blues. For the Boutiques at Make Mine Pink, spring cleaning is over, and we would love to show off our fresh new colors and exciting spring merchandise.

    Please join us for our "March Into Spring" Shop Hop from March 16 through March 21, 2009. The shop hop is open to anyone that would like to participate (limit one registration per physical address). Please register if you would like to participate.

  • French Farmhouse

    French Farmhouse

    I went to the Dallas World Trade Center today to just walk around and get inspired ~
    It is full of the latest trends in home decor and I was kind of surprised to see the French Farmhouse look literally everywhere ~
    I like it alot although it kind of reminds me of about 20 years ago to some degree ~ I guess decorating styles come back ~

    This Friday, Katies Rose Cottage and the shops at Make Mine Pink are doing "French Farmhouse" for the Pink Friday theme ~

    Here are a few pics that I took at market today ~

  • Make Mine Pink * Pink Fridays

    Make Mine Pink * Pink Fridays

    This Friday join Katies Rose Cottage and Make Mine Pink for our Pink Friday shopping event ~

    This week's theme is "In the Hope Chest "

    I remember when I was a little girl going up to my Great Grandma's attic ~ it was filled with treasures from years and generations past ~ it was so much fun to hear the stories of each treasure lovingly put away in trunks and chests ~

    When I was in High School my mom and dad gave me a hope chest that I filled with special linens and other things that I would someday use in my own home ~ these were things that my grandmas and mom would pass down to me or things that I collected that I loved ~

    Have fun shopping and dreaming ~

  • Pink Friday "Stitches in Time"

    Pink Friday "Stitches in Time"

    Stitches in Time; tiny stitches holding the hem of a linen napkin, stitches intertwined to make the most delicate lace, stitches crocheted by the smallest hook, stitches through canvas strengthened by wool yarn. It's these stitches created out of love that adorn a bedspread crocheted for a granddaughter's wedding, a sampler commemorating the birth of a child, a fine table cloth made to entertain the most important guests and family at Thanksgiving. Each of these stitches has survived the test of time and is so much more appreciated today as gifts from our past and treasures of our future.

    Join Katies Rose Cottage and the Boutiques at Make Mine Pink for our "Stitches in Time Pink Friday on Sept 26th. You will find cherished items stitched with time and love.

    Make sure and sign up on our mailing list for a special tomorrow to go along with the Pink Friday event ~
