Good Morning, do come in and sit awhile... A few weeks back Beverly ask us to do something special for a Pink Christmas post... She ask us to share a childhood memory about a special Christmas holiday.... So I told you about my Grand Parents.... Most of my memories from child hood center around time spent with my Grandparents...
My Grandparents loved to entertain... I do remember so many parties at my Grandparents home.... Lots of people, food music, and yes drinking... It would be a Family friendly party ,as far as I remember , children were at all the parties that took place at their home...
This is a great shaker from the 50's, to mix drinks in... I also have six drink glasses... When my Grandmother passed, This is one of the things that she left to me...
Is this just to fun... Pink Elephants and Stars....

Oh what precious memories. I love the pretty shaker and glasses. I remember those pink elephants, I just can't remember where I saw them. What wonderful treasures. Hugs, Marty
ReplyDeleteHi Julie! Happy New Year. I love your vintage barware. That would be too cute to use for a kids party.....I know....but circus theme.
ReplyDeleteDancing elephants! Oh, I would have loved being at one of their parties, for sure. Thanks for sharing your memory.
ReplyDeleteOh so cute! I love the shaker and the glasses. The fact that they are PINK just makes them more better! Stay Warm! Linda
ReplyDeleteWhat a riot, and SO-ooo darn CUTE!!! Love them, Julie!.. Happy Pink Saturday, and have a wonderful weekend! ~tina
ReplyDeleteOh, Julie, I'm so happy to see this post. I've been worried about you. Hope all is well. Let me hear from you when you get a chance.
ReplyDeleteDancing pink elephants! What could be better for Pink Saturday? How special to have these from your grandparents with so many memories attached.
Hope you'll stop by for a visit. I'm sharing chocolates today. ~ Sarah
Now isn't that just the cutest?
ReplyDeleteSo is this where the saying "Seeing pink elephants" started. Lovely party stuff and family memories. Sounds like you had wonderful Grandparents. :)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful glass set! What a treasure! Thank you for taking the time to drop by my new blog with your sweet welcome. Your Lucy is so cute! She does remind me of my little Maggie. Have a great Pink Saturday!

Oh do I love these cute pink elephants and how wonderful you have this from your dear Grandmother. Thanks for visiting my blog and I see Miss Lucy there under the tree !! She looks as if she is saying 'Mom must I wear this silly hat?' We do spoil our dogs don't we. I know I can't help it.
ReplyDeleteThat is so cute! Happy Pink Saturday!
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet memory of your Grandparents! Love those sweet pink elephants! Enjoy your weekend!
ReplyDeleteHi sweet Julie! Thank you so much for your kind words and your warm wishes on my first Pink Saturday post! I love your elephants. My dad was a state legislator and campaigned for re-election every two years. We had all things GOP around our house so you can imagine all the elephants. My mother collected them until her brood of pachyderms became too much for all of us! You reminded me! Thank you!
ReplyDeleteHow fun Julie! Pink elephants for the cocktail set, it makes perfect sense. :D
ReplyDeleteI seem to remember cocktail napkins with that theme when I was a little girl.
What fun memories you have, thank you for sharing and Happy Pink Saturday. xo
Oh, those are so sweet. I do imagine you're carrying on the fun tradition that your grandma started. She sounds like a fun lady. Rosie
ReplyDeleteThose are unique pink cups, and a great tradition! Thanks for visiting..
ReplyDeleteI love the little pink elephants. What a nice memory of your grandmother.
ReplyDeleteHappy Pink Saturday.
I'm a day late and a dollar short with my Pink Saturday visits. The sun was shining too bright yesterday and just like a little kid I couldn't stop marveling at how lovely it was as it beamed through my lace curtains and puddled on the floor. My cats were in heaven.
ReplyDeleteSo, here I am today, a little late but thinking that I got a bonus because I avoided all the traffic!
Lovely blog and the sweetest pinks that you shared. Thank you so much for making this such a lovely Sunday for me.
Oh how fun! I've never seen anything quite like that!

That is a very fun post and funny too. I remember glasses and bar ware like that, so retro and pretty. That was back in the days when everyone threw a party for just about everything. Happy Pink Saturday, Char
ReplyDeleteNice and cute pink.
ReplyDeleteRegards.
Hi Julie, This is Elizabeth of Creative Breathing. What a lovely blog you have! I see that we have one very important thing in common - the love of dishes! So many beautiful ones to be found here! Answer to your question about vintage images, perhaps my card collection? They can be found on E-bay. Most antique malls do not know there is a market for them. Very seldom do I find them at one. You are more than welcome to copy any that I have posted on my Flickr photostream. Many I use myself have been generously shared by others in this way. Have a lovely week ahead! Elizabeth
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year! When I say your pink elephant glassware I smile and chuckled to myself...I LOVE IT! Thanks for always bringing a little sunshine with your post! I hope your holidays were magical....wishing you well! Denise
ReplyDeletePink elephants - how fun! :-) What more, they are from your grandma so there are extra memories that goes with it :-)
ReplyDeleteMizpah,
