Thinking Pink #8: Something French, Victorian Artwork, and Elizabeth Barret Browning

Welcome to Thinking Pink!

 

This week my pinks were at a minimum...

and I do hope that the things I do show tonight

I haven't shared before! You never know though!
 I did scan back over my old TP posts, just to be sure.

 

 

Here is my little portrait plate

of a French girl. I am

guessing she is French, only

because it is marked.....

...France on the back.

I tell ya, I'm really good at this

antique thang!

 

 

 

And then there is this antique "gift book" titled

Laurels from Browning.

 

Being the curious sort, I just read

about Elizabeth Barret Browning

and found her life and story

very interesting.

 

And of course I read some of the

 poetry... good yes, but I am

not really into English prose.

 

 

I just know how beautiful the
artwork  is inside...

 

And again, her story is interesting.

I may do an upcoming "Let's Talk Vintage!"

post about her... stay tuned!

 

And last but not least,

here is my latest thrift store find:

 

 

A pink froufy ball gown!

 

Not old, but a great "Glenda the Good Witch"

costume starter or maybe, just maybe

a costume for a party I am planning

for Bebe's birthday... she wants a

"Nutcracker" themed party!

A "Sugar Plum Fairy" perhaps?

 

Not saying I would be the one in

the gown... good grief,

there is just not enough time

to diet!

 

And I will leave you with that laugh

for the day...

 

Enjoy the weekend!

 

As usual, I will be linking with

these fun link parties:
