Shabby Pink Outdoors!
Hello Sweet friends! I have been spending alot of time outdoors and I thought I would share some of the shabby pinks I have outside of my home! In front of my home is a beautiful tree that blooms in the spring a pretty pinky purply flower!

I made this pretty shabby welcome sign for my front door...it is a little "wonky" I am not the best builder, but I thought it turned out kinda cute...

I am so busy, I do not have the time to putter in the garden so some of my "container" flowers are faux and that will just have to do for now! (Believe me girls I drool over your fresh pink roses and all of your cottage gardens...)However, I did plant a small lilac bush in my front yard, cross my fingers it lives!!!!!

I just adore this pretty pink tassle accenting the shabby blue garden cart on my front porch...

The front view where me and the gang hang out!
Well, thank you for stopping by for a visit with me and my outdoor pinks!
I hope you have a wonderful and blessed weekend! To see more pinks please stop by and say hi to

    Hi Olivia :) I think your welcome sign is fabulous!! I would not have known the flowers were faux if you hadn't mentioned it....I think they are pretty! Plus, you don't have to worry about watering them, lol :) LOVE your tassles!

    Happy Pink Saturday!

    Warmest Hugs, Brenda

    Happy PiNk, Olivia...

    I like your Welcome sign. Your porch is so pretty. I totally understand on that "faux" flower comment. I've been in our home for a year now but still getting stuff finished inside. When it's finished I'll move to the outside...need shutters, a flower garden and a small spot to grow some food.

    Thanks so much for visiting with me...
    Have a wonderful day,
    Stephanie ♥

    Hi, Olivia!

    I stumbled upon your blog via Pat Winter's and then Sweet Rebecca's blogs. Love the Redbud tree and the urn filled with lovely pink flowers! They don't look fake to me.

    Wish I had a front porch like yours . . . it looks so pretty and relaxing!

    Beautiful blog you've got here too.
