Pink on the Porch




I love the combination of vintage wicker and flowers.
To me it's a match made in heaven.






I love pink and green with a pop of yellow.
It's so happy and cheerful.  I adore the curled wicker
on this little rocker too.




Simple and happy ~  an all is right with the world kind 
of feeling.






That's why I love wicker and flowers.
It's a favorite thing.

Happily Joining ~



Bentley's favorite thing is to be able to spend so much time
playing in his yard after a long cold winter.  


Big Hugs,
Susan and Bentley

    You always create the most lovely vignettes, and the colors in this are simply beautiful. The little wicker rocker is just right for the porch.

    Shades of pretty pink and sunny yellow flowers are indeed, the most charmingly sweet little gifts a girl (or anyone) could ask for. Happiness for everyone!

    Have a lovely weekend,

    So pretty together! Today is the first day of what I would consider full out spring here on the East coast (at least in my neck of the woods) so this has been an awesome day of springiness!

    ANd your post is just perfect for Pink Saturday.

    ENJOY!

    I'm with you ~ wicker and flowers are a perfect combo! So glad Bentley can play outside in his yard now. Our backyard has had rain in it the past couple of days and it's not Chloe's favorite thing. She's a spoiled California girl. :-)
    HPS,

    Oh I love your pinks - but especially the pink teacup and saucer. I think I'm going to turn into a teacup kind of person here some day. Love that one.
    Can't blame Bentley! Play time!
    Happy Pink Saturday!
    So enjoyed my visit! Thanks.

    the wicker and flowers do look so pretty together. I had to pull all my flowers in from the porch and batten down the hatches against the wind!

    I love wicker too! I have two wicker chairs on my front porch. If i had a dream house with a sun room I think I'd have it in wicker and yellow and white accents....

    Morning Susan and Bentley...........glad to know Spring is popping out on your porch. All looks so pretty, and lovely china. Wicker is perfect for porch sitting - love yours, and of course I agree that flowers are needed to create the perfect look. I must get out there soon and clean and rearrange my porch - just been too chilly.

    Have a great weekend - hope Bentley gets lots of outdoor exercise - something I need also!

    Hugs - Mary

    I'm with you, Susan! Nothing better than wicker and flowers. I have to say I love that pitcher in your first photo! Beautiful. I hope someday to find a large pitcher like that for my little cottage.

    Thanks so much for joining in this week!

    At our farmhouse there is an old section and a more recent one. Cats inhabit the old section, the dog lives in the old. Wicker is in the cat part, away from flowers which can be poisonous to them, while the dog owns the part of the house where plants decorate the rooms. An odd situation, but it works!

    Oh, Susan, your porch certainly does have HAPPY everywhere! I love the pink, yellow and green against the wicker. It's so wonderful that it's the season to enjoy these things again! Hoping you are enjoying Spring.
