IT'S PINK SATURDAY!

It's "Pink Saturday" hosted by Beverly at "How Sweet The Sound" http://howsweetthesound.type.pad.com/ . Please go over and visit her and see all who are participating this weekend. Today I am showing a few of my vintage nut cups, one is a crepe paper rose held up by a thin spiral wire wrapped in green crepe paper. The nuts or mints would be placed inside the rose. The other is a a cute little paper nut cup made to resemble a little basket and has a handle with some little paper flowers on it. The cake is just a little plastic trinket box which the cake top can be lifted and filled up with your goodies.

Have fun visiting all of the other participants and have a wonderful weekend.
Also, please go and visit Tristan at Enchanted Reverly http://tristanrobin.blogsot.com/ as he is celebrating his 50th Follower with a lovely giveaway.
Hugs :)
Irma

I'm very, very late for pink Saturday but I just had to stop and tell you how pretty your picture is. I would love to know how they made the rose cup.

I just found some of these old crepe paper rose nut cups recently, I'd never seen them before! I sure fell for them, aren't they lovely?
