For today's Sunday Selections,
a blog hop party of photography challenges
hosted by River of Drifting Through Life --
I'm fulfilling the Colour of the Month prompt
provided by Charlotte of MotherOwl's Musings.
This month's colour is Electric Rose.
Here's what I found around my place
to fulfill the colour prompt.
1. Household Bucket and Tai Chi Fan
The household bucket is kind of self-explanatory, LOL.
My tai chi fan has a beautiful pink peony on it.
Here's the fan opened wide for a better view.
Back in the day when I was doing an extensive tai chi practice,
I used this in a "tai chi kung fu fan" routine.

2. T-shirt and Nightie
I don't usually wear a lot of pink
(too girly-girl for me), so these are
the only two clothing items I have in that colour.
I never attended or got a degree from the U of A,
but I worked there for quite a few years in a legal think tank.
I love the pink (and black) kitties on the nightie!
Its background colour is actually a very light pink too,
but it doesn't really show up in the photo.
This nightie is as old as the bloody hills
but I keep holding on to it for some reason.
Oh, who am I fooling? KITTIES!

I love pink, too š
Beautiful pictures š
...Debra, when I was in the nursery business I had a customer who would ask what color pink is this. And I would say 78 on the pink scale. There sure are a bunch of colors out there!
I love this color! I know this as "opera pink". That fan is gorgeous.
As a kid I didn't like pink but now I enjoy it.
I don't think we have any pink in the house or in our clothes. I'll have to search ....
Love your bucket!
Of course I had to look up the tai chi kung fu post! Lethal!
Those truly are some Electric pink items. I like that fan, even if it's not a real Japanese Killer Fan ;)
Hello Debra, I have precious little in that deep shade of pink, oddly, mostly mop and brush handles. I am guessing that the mops originally came in both blue and pink, but the blue ones sold out, so it was the pink ones or nothing. Pink mops are actually kind of insulting. How many women feel dainty and feminine because they can use pink mops while scrubbing the floors?
For lighter pink shades I have even less. One or two book spines (red ones often fade to pink) and, like you, a bucket--not one that I bought but one that was already in this apartment when I moved in. Oh, wait. I checked my spreadsheets, and I do have one antique pink object, which I will email to you.

@ Parnassus (Jim) -- Thanks for the photo you sent. I agree, it's lovely and would look great on a picture gallery wall!
I have a pink sweatshirt, a gift from Sweet bear.
I just realized that I have nothing pink.
My ten-year old grandson has a jacket just that electric rose color and he loves it and wears it all the time. I think he is completely unaware that pink is associated with girls and if he does know that, he certainly doesn't care. I love that so much. I love him so much. I love his parents so much.
I have a sweater in that color. I get compliments every time I wear it, so the shade must suit my complexion.
I'm impressed that you have an electric Rose pink bucket in your house over that of the household of a drag queen!
I have a light pink sleep shirt with kitties drinking lattes. My other favorite is a hot pink sleep shirt with white peace signs all over it. Really cute.
Yeah pink has never been my color either for the same reason as you. I do like your fan. I have several myself. Have a very nice day today.
OlĆ” Debra. Eu te confesso que sĆ³ tenho uma peƧa, cor rosa. Grande abraƧo do seu amigo do Brasil.
