Today I decided to blog all things pink!
Daughter M. helped me to make these gorgeous, little, sequined cushions. We found a beautiful jacket in our local charity shop and just couldn't resist "up-cycling" it. The result.... two tiny, pale pink, silky cushions 13" x 10".
They have a soft, pink suedette reverse side and a little "pillow case" closure with press studs.
I will pop them in the blog shop once we have had our post-sale clear out. The sale ends next Monday 31st.
Now for the rest of the pinkiness in my house this week!!Tulips from M's friend. I re-covered a little bedroom seat for her so she gave me these - a lovely breath of Springtime. (Sadly the weather isn't very Spring-like - look at the frost on the hillside!)
The cyclamen was a Christmas gift and is looking very perky now Wipso!!!
And this delicate blossom is a tiny Dendrobium orchid that flowers, just occasionally, to surprise me! It has about five blooms at the moment and is so pretty.

Fab pinkiness Jo, I saw the frost on the hillside driving to Craven Arms yesterday!! Just had a lady in the shop asking about the bears you and Annie had at the craft fair, she bought one but wants more - gave her your blog shop address. Love those cushions too. xxx
And gorgeous they are too..Love them

Dear fab little cushions, but mis leading as they look so big in the photo....lol...great photos too.
love the fact that you up-cycled to make those gorgeous little cushions. You and your daughter are just so clever!
The frost is set to last for a while longer so concentrating on pink is not a bad idea.
Gorgeous little cushions.
Great use of the jacket... amazing cushions...
At first glance I thought the view through the window was a photo... a little set up vignette....
What an amazing back drop to the tulips. Those cusions remind me of evening bags my mum had ...kept from the 30's ...wish i had them stll.
Tulips are my favourite flower and yours look gorgeous against that frosty backdrop
Your creativeness shows no ends Jo and I always love seeing your projects so I’ve decided to give you a well deserved ‘Stylish Blogger’ award.
