Add a little French PINK


When I spotted this
Pink
Vintage French Enamel Bucket
I knew it was coming home with me
I found it at the {Irvine flea market} a few years
ago and it has been in my kitchen ever since.


It is the most wonderful shade of pink
♥

I have used it as a ice bucket at parties



and a vase for flowers

I love the wooden handle and the lid of the bucket too
I used it at my daughters 17th birthday
{she turns 20 in a few days}
to hold her
Birthday Flowers
It is a fabulous treasure
and the perfect shade of pink

I hope you Have a wonderful Saturday

Romantic saying for today
There is no fear in love but perfect Love casts out fear

    My best friend would be drooling over this. She collects the pink for her camper, which she had painted pink and redid the inside with vintage pinks!
    Happy PS!

    OOOOOOOHHHHH, that is SO pretty! I can definitely see why it had to come home with you. I fear we would have had to fight over it had I been junkin' with you! LOL! OK, maybe not, but it is fabulous.

    Hugs,

    Oh, Pam the pink bucket is cute as can be but I almost lost my breath when I saw the china tureen with rose pattern sitting just above. It is completely fabulous. Please share, where ever did you find such a treasure?

    That is a great pink old bucket. I have seen many in my days, but never a pink one. Looks very nice anyway you care to use it.
