    “Someone Will Win a Pink Diamond”

    We are so excited! As a proud member of MakeMinePink.com, we have joined with other Pink Boutiques and Make Mine Pink for the “Pink Diamond Campaign”.
    Every year Make Mine Pink likes to do something special to honor our valued customers, clients and friends. In all, $2500 worth of fabulous pink prizes will be awarded throughout the contest with a Grand Prize of a genuine pink diamond pendant.
    There are several fun ways to win prizes for the Campaign, by just visiting the boutiques at Make Mine Pink and locating the six diamonds hidden among the participating Pink Boutiques each of the six month, or you may see one of the Make Mine Pink boutique owners wearing her pink rhinestone “MMP” pin as she goes about day to day activities, or making a donation to a favorite women’s charity. A monthly prize will be awarded for May, June, July, August and September entries with a grand prize awarded for the month of October. It’s that easy!
    Join us in our excitement by visiting the boutiques at Make Mine Pink.
    For more information, you may visit http://www.katiesrosecottage.com or the “Pink Diamond Campaign” link at Make Mine Pink.

  • Make Mine Pink Chicago Bound

    Make Mine Pink Chicago Bound

    I am sooo excited to be on my way to Chicago to attend the Country Living Women Entrepreneur of the Year conference ~ Joyce Lucas, who is the founder of Make Mine Pink is one of the women being honored !!

    It is going to be a blast to get to meet all of the ladies that I talk to at Make Mine Pink everyday ~ I have been a member for over 3 years and have talked to Joyce and the other ladies on the Make Mine Pink forum since then ~ We are going to have a few days to laugh, chat, eat Chicago pizza and just have so much fun as well as learn some wonderful things at the conference ~

    On March 15, 2008, in Chicago, at the annual Country Living WE aftenoon, Joyce Lucas will recognized as one of Honorees of 2008's The Country Living Women Entrepreneurs. She will join the other deserving Honorees on stage for accolades and a question and answer session. All the Honorees are featured in the March issue of Country Living, currently on the newsstands.

    Her her own words, Joyce says:
    "This year I am so proud to announce that I have been honored along with 9 other women, the "Country Living Women Entrepreneur of the Year award for 2008 ". Grateful for such an honor, I am also very humbled. It is because of the amazing group of women that collectively make up Make Mine Pink, that I have received this honor. I will proudly accept this honor for all of the members at MMP."

    Joyce founded in Make Mine Pink 2004, from a personal need to find other like- minded women who, like herself, were struggling to not only get their businesses started, but to gain the recognition businesses needed to succeed. Not only did she create Make Mine Pink as an online shopping mall, but she added a forum for the business women to exchange ideas and build friendships.

  • Recreating for Make Mine Pink "Pink Friday"

    Recreating for Make Mine Pink "Pink Friday"

    Today I spent the day getting ready for the Make Mine Pink, "The Garden Path", Pink Friday event ~

    I wanted to take you along so that you could see the journey of recreating a flea market find into something special for your cottage home ~

    The first thing you do is find what you want to work on ~ it is getting harder and harder to find these awesome totes like the large one that I have shown ~ It is very old so the wood is rough and weathered ~ I really don't know what it was used for but I think it would be perfect for putting your flowers in as you cut them and get ready for a bouquet ~

    The next step is to glue on embellishments if you want to ~ I love them because they add such a shabby chic look ~

    Then you prime your piece with a good primer ~ my very favorite is Kilz oil based because it covers so well ~

    After that is dry, which takes a few steps to do all sides, you paint on whatever color you would like and when that dries you distress it with sandpaper ~ I use flat paint because I like the look of it ~

    I love it when the weather is sunny because it makes the best painting days !!

    The items that I have shown you, along with other garden treasures, will be available on my website for Pink Friday ~

    Have fun shopping or creating !!

  • Vintage Pink Christmas Balls

    Vintage Pink Christmas Balls

    Every year at Christmas there is something that I kind of have an obsession about and this year it is vintage Christmas balls and anything with German glass glitter ~

    When we were at Canton for our one day ( not near enough time ), another thing that I found was a basket of vintage pink Christmas balls ~ First of all, vintage Christmas balls go for a premium here ~ I saw them for $24 a box of 8 at most places !! Well I was so excited to find this basket full of PINK so I had to ask how much it was even though I figured it would be too expensive ~ It was $30 for the whole basket full including the basket ~ I was sooo excited and snatched it up real quick ~

    I washed some of my ugly orange ones I got last year and now they are a gorgeous mercury glass ~ I combined them with my new old pink ones in an apothecary jar ~

    Apothecary jars are also one of my favorite things so I have quite a few of them around my house ~ they are wonderful because you can change them for the seasons ~

    I also found this petite apothecary jar at Canton this month ~ I just fell in love with it because it is so cute with the vintage pink and white buttons ~
    It is available here ~

    Chat with you soon !
