| They were a little too plain for my taste, so I added some Pennytouches to them! |
 |
| I am using a pink rose theme for Thanksgiving this year...... |
 |
| so, I made Mrs Pilgrim a pretty pink apron, added some pink fabric to her collar, some pretty lace, and 2 pink fabric roses. |
 |
| I added some pink rose fabric to Mr Pilgrim's hat, some fabric buttons, fabric to his collar, and a fabric rose. |
 |
| These pilgrims were made in Sayre, Ok (they are marked on the back). I love the way their faces are carved...lots of detail. Whoever made these did an amazing job! |

Adorable! What a unique find and I loved the way you have dressed them up and added some bling to them. Someone really did do an amazing job carving the faces.

The pilgrims, I'm sure, would approve if they knew then how a little color, a little fun adds such joy to our lives.
ReplyDeletePenny you certainly did Pennyfy them. I loved how you said you were using a Pink Rose theme for Thanksgiving...duh..I couldn't imagine anything else.lol Where is Mr H going to find a Pink Turkey?? I love the Pilgrims, you added the perfect touches to them, as usual. ♥
ReplyDeleteLOL! Great Price! And they definitely look like they belong in your home now. You need to back "slowly" away from the auctions for a little while?? :)
ReplyDeleteLove the wooden people wow they are so cool...would love to see a little orange with that pink, it would be so chic for this time of year and those two colors are such a wow...I know you love your pink me too....the bloggers would pass out ....lol....love your post and love your blog, love that you have such fun with your home...

ReplyDeleteI love the fabric you used on these adorable pilgrims. I 've noticed that you use this particular fabric a lot. I also have this fabric and used it to alter two pink pillow covers.

ReplyDeleteWhat a fantastic find for a fantastic price!! LOVE,LOVE,LOVE those sweet carved faces!! Amazing !! And I lov ethe pretty touches that you added to them to make them a "Penny" original!!!
I don't do Thanksgiving decorating because I go right into Christmas. I am so behind though this year that it is not funny. I am thinking that i may not get to decorate the upstiars this year with everything that I have going on..... If I don't. then I don't.... There will always be next year...
Hugs,

Penny, your pilgrim couple looks adorable with their touches of pink. They are really very cute and you did well to pick them up. Thanks for sharing them at my HOME and enjoy your weekend.

The Pilgrims are probably rolling in their graves since you prettIed them up when they were supposed to be staid and stern. They just did not have a Penny around back then to straighten them out. Those two are definitely pieces of folk art and for that price they were a steal. Love their faces.
ReplyDeleteI love the Pennytouches! -Marci @ Stone Cottage Adventures
ReplyDeleteThose Pilgrims are amazing and you spruced them up for sure! Thanks for sharing at TTF!
ReplyDeleteWhat perfect props for Thanksgiving. Thanks so much for linking up to Thriving on Thursdays.
