Pink Ribbons for a Cure....(Found while surfing the net...I only passed this along...NOT my work!....just thought it would make a great addition to the group pool)
She's done! Halleluja! I wanted her to be my faux Tokidoki, but I'm not sure I have the heart to cut her hair. I'm such a softie, hehe.
Finally grouted this and painted the frame. Giving to my sister to use at an auction for Toys for Tots.

Experiment with pink LED lights to light already pink Perfume bottles and clear bead necklaces for CWD assignment.
Several of my Flickr friends have posted pictures of pink Gerberas recently - one of my favorite flowers. I've been enjoying this Costco bouquet for a week now, and will get a few more days yet. How can you beat that?
Gerbera species bear a large capitulum with striking, two-lipped ray florets in yellow, orange, white, pink or red colours. The capitulum, which has the appearance of a single flower, is actually composed of hundreds of individual flowers. The morphology of the flowers varies depending on their position in the capitulum. The flower heads can be as small as 7 cm (Gerbera mini 'Harley') in diameter or up to 12 cm (Gerbera ‘Golden Serena’).
Gerbera is very popular and widely used as a decorative garden plant or as cut flowers. The domesticated cultivars are mostly a result of a cross between Gerbera jamesonii and another South African species Gerbera viridifolia.[5] The cross is known as Gerbera hybrida. Thousands of cultivars exist. They vary greatly in shape and size. Colours include white, yellow, orange, red, and pink. The centre of the flower is sometimes black. Often the same flower can have petals of several different colours.
Gerbera is also important commercially. It is the fifth most used cut flower in the world (after rose, carnation, chrysanthemum, and tulip). It is also used as a model organism in studying flower formation.
Gerbera contains naturally occurring coumarin derivatives. Gerbera is a tender perennial plant. It is attractive to bees, butterflies and/or birds, but resistant to deer.[6] Their soil should be kept moist but not soaked.
