Vintage Pink Finds at The Antique Mall

When my sister was in town two weeks ago, we went to a local Antique Mall and found a virtual trove of delightful pink treasures. I hope you enjoy and I thank you for your visit.

I adore this pair of pink finials and hurricane candle holder.
This dress with Pink tulle with Black Polka Dots just says "Fun!" from the Fab Fifties.

This desk is a little too pepto pink and cries out for finish glaze coat in a softer color. (Hmm, maybe black inspired by the dress?)

Thank you to Beverly at How Sweet the Sound for hosting Pink Saturday. I wish you and yours a Rosy Day!

Hi Martha!
Happy Pink Saturday! It looks as though you found several pink items of interest. I too love the pink finials. They look like they could go on top of a Christmas tree for a topper. They are certainly shiny enough. Thanks for sharing. That dress is pretty interesting too. I bet it was very beautiful in its time. Please stop by and say hi. Country Hugs, Sherry

I would wax the desk, put a few coats of white on it and then give it some discreet "rubs" for character.

I think that dress is fabulous! Perhaps better if it were orange, but still great!

I love the dress! And I don't even like pink...

Here, you would be able to find some pink depression ware at all the antique malls, but that's about it.

What a fun day you must have had. I love the pink dress with black polka-dots. I admit to having a "thing" for polka-dots.

I clicked to be one of your followers, and I hope you will follow my blog, too.

Happy Pink Saturday, Martha.
