Bumpkin On A Swing: Search results for love live

Trish at Pink, Preppy, Lilly Lover does Pink and Green Thursdays. Trish is the sweetest Cajun Belle around, and spreads happiness everywhere she goes. She is also the fastest dad gum commenter this side of The Mississippi. I decided to play along a couple of weeks ago. This post took me longer than any other I have ever composed. I'm so, not the pink and green girl, but I found some things that fit the requirements within the boundaries of my life. So here we go Trish, Bumpkin Style:

It's Britney B*tches!

I'm not even telling ya'll what kind of shoes this is: If you have not learned anything else from The Bumpkin, you should know this by now: Red soles, red soles, red soles.....

I actually like this room. You're not as surprised as I am ;)

Shut up! I know these are some fugly shoes, but do you know how hard it was to find a pair of pink and green shoes?

Look Iman forgot to take off her "get booty" outfit as The Captain says, before leaving the hotel.

Ummmm Let's see pink and green, pink and green, wait I know............

I want these from Kate Spade to wear with jeans and the same color shirt.

Aurelius Borealis; On my bucket list!

In doing my homework for this post, I learned one jillion peeps have had pink and green weddings. I also was amazed to find a photo of one that I could stomach.

Please put your right hand over your heart, and repeat after me:
Manolo Blahnik is an amazing shoe designer, I live to pay tribute to his awesomeness. Before I die I pray to own a pair of Something Blue. Amen

Bulletin: The woman who lives in the house on the left, is single for life.

Raspberry Ruger LCP-R, if you see this Ruger you better buy it immediately. They are very few that have been made, and they don't stay in the cases past the first woman who sees it. Click here to read more about it.

Love the dress, and wrap!

What a cool photo, after research I learned she is eating Pink Caviar.

This is Hot!

This is Haute!

Rose Topaz, even though I'm really not a "pink" type of lady, these are always attractive to me when I see them at work. I hear they sell very quickly in the showcases too.

You'll never guess who the designer of this purse is?

Versace made the above purse. No shit!

You know that The Bumpkin loves all things Chanel, but their polish isn't super strong, just super pricey. Nothing beats OPI in my opinion.

A little more pink and green Versace for your drooling pleasure. Love the shoes, of course you probably knew that already, but yes; I love the Versace shoes.

This was super fun, Trishy. Love you, love Shoes!
Who else has got a day I can play too?

The Bumpkin

Remember me telling you on Friday about my favorite song lyrics...Those Rolling Stones lyrics are a great reminder in our tough economy right now. I always try to remember these lyrics, when I'm angry that I can't spend $250 for highlights these days. I sing them to myself while shopping even.
I was over at Etsy tooling around a couple of weeks ago, and look at the pendant I found at The Lyrical Lady shop.

Dating myself, I must say That's So Groovy!

I was so intrigued that I asked The Lyrical Lady where she came up with the idea, and I loved her reply:

The idea for Lyrical Lady and creating glass pendants with classic rock lyrics, came from my Mom. She is a huge Beatles and FleetwoodMac/Stevie Nicks fan. We had been admiring scrabble tile charms at a craft show and she commented how they were kind of small and that she would like one with a picture of Stevie Nicks and the lyrics from "Gypsy" So we discovered glass tiles through all the wonderful Etsy sellers and started making our pendants, and everytime I wore mine, I would get compliments and requests from people to make them one. So eventually Lyrical Lady was opened up on Etsy, and it has been a lot of fun!

For you Michael Jackson fans:

Then I discovered you can special order your favorite lyrics.
I asked The Lyrical Lady
which other lyrics had been special ordered, and here's a few things I never even considered till she mentioned.

I have made a few pendants with Bible verses, verses from poems, lyrics from songs I have never even heard of, and lines from movies. I did a custom order for a wedding where they ordered a different pendant for each bridesmaid and groomsman with an inside joke, it was pretty funny. I pretty much can create anything that has special meaning to someone. I joke that I am saving people lots of money because instead of getting their favorite song or quote as a tattoo, they can wear it around their neck for under ten bucks!

She suggests for the square tiles 10 words or less, or for the rectangular tiles like mine, 20 words or less. Remember the John Mayer quote I loved. "I believe that my life's gonna see, the love I give, return to me." 14 words, bingo. Can't wait to put my order in for this!
From Forever Young by Rod Stewart

You can even buy your choice of anchors for the pendant at The Lyrical Lady shop as well. I asked The Lyrical Lady herself which one was the most popular. And she replied:

My pendants are sold without a necklace but I offer several styles in my shop. My favorite for the square pendants is the silver plated ball necklace with the tiny 1.5mm balls. Another great look is the 18 1/2" black leather cord necklace, the rectangle style pendants look great on this. I started selling colored ball chain necklaces this year, and the black ones are very popular especially for men.

From one of the greatest songs ever written. I don't have to tell you from Imagine, by John Lennon, do I?

Love this one.....with the picture and the lyrics.

Good one from Love Is A Battlefield by Pat Benatar

I wore my pendant on a black cord with a red turtleneck on Friday, and everyone I met, had to read it, and raved about how "cool" it was. I was surprised with how many younger folks recognized the lyrics.

Here is a little about the lady behind this awesome shop.

My name is Lisa, I live in Missouri with my husband of 2 years, Mark, and 3 children. Jemma 19, Zach 15 and Gavin 21 months. I am currently a stay at home Mom, after years of working in banking as financial services rep. I love to read, cook, sew, all kinds of crafts, felt (both needle and wet felting), and garden, to name a few of my hobbies. I have 3 different Etsy shops right now, I am down from 4! My sister says I have Craft ADD, because I am always starting new crafts, and then moving on to the next thing that catches my fancy. I want to try everything! I believe in the power of positive thinking. Whether it be a meal for my family or an item I sold on Etsy, I always think warm happy thoughts to pass on to others.

Lyrical Lady Lisa was sweet enough to sponsor a giveaway here at the swing. One of you can have your favorite too! I have so many ideas for gifts, I will be keeping my shopping cart loaded over there. Since Lisa is sponsoring, anyone who reads has a chance. Visit The Lyrical Lady over at Etsy, and come back and tell me which one you want, or did you do your homework this weekend and come up with your own lyrics?

Again, old rules don't apply, visit the shop and leave a comment on this post to enter. Winner announced on Friday. Tell your readers about The Lyrical Lady and get two extra entries, but let me know the link to your post.
