Kewpie Pink Saturday

Happy Pink Saturday!

I bought this little pink Kewpie doll while on vacation in the Iowa Amish country.  There are a series of small touristy towns near where the Amish live.  They are mostly gift shops, restaurants and bakeries.  Some of the wares sold at the stores are handmade by the Amish, but, of course, this wasn’t.  But I loved her so much.  Look how she holds her arms up there so that you will pick her up.  She’s so precious!!!

I looked on the Internet to see how old something needs to be before it is considered ‘vintage.’  I found 50 years, 20 years, 25 years.  I think I’m going with the 50 years.  I don’t like the idea of something that I bought when I was in my 30s (while this is) to be considered vintage!

Beverly at How Sweet the Sound hosts Pink Saturday every week. This is a very fun event. Each of us post some pink on our blog on Saturday and try to visit as many of the other blogs as possible. Big thanks to Beverly for coordinating all the pinkaliciousness!

Happy Pink Saturday,
