Pink Pastel Advertising for PINK SATURDAY!

Beautiful birds were often used in vintage advertising! Many were made into postcards for the collectors of the day! And today, we are still enamored of these beautiful old-time designs! Prices vary depending on when/where you travel to find thrifty buys. Many are still reasonably priced at $1 - $2 or less! Many are priced higher but you may still find some in assortments, groups, or lots for less.

Thanks to Bev at How Sweet the Sound for offering Pink Saturdays to all who wish to participate. She's doing a great job of coordinating and sharing. You can see other Pink Saturday participants HERE! Thanks for stopping by!

But, before you go, please take a minute to visit my new CHARMING VINTAGE RECIPES blog where you will find FREE 50'S FAMILY RECIPES! Please stop by! I'd love to have you join me as a FOLLOWER!

  4. Happy Pink Saturday Coralie...
    I love this little bird tucked inside this envelope. How precious is that. The colors are just exquisite, and look so real like.

    Looks as though she is perched and ready to fly right off the nest. You could almost rub the feathers they are so real like.

    Thank you for sharing. Please stop by and let me share my pink post with you.

    Country hugs, Sherry
