Meet Bea´s Pink, no. 196, a Pink color with a granulating blue shade!

Last June I received a very special email from one of our customers, Paulette.

She said: I want to thank you for all of the “pink” talk!  My mother lived for 93 years. She was faithful to Jesus, to her family and to the color pink. I was raised in a pink house with pink trim and pink brick. The fireplace was pink brick and the kitchen counters were pink linoleum. The patio was pink and was surrounded by every pink peony available. My bedroom was pink with a fluffy pink rug, pink bedding and pink curtains. The perfect little girls room.

One Christmas my dad surprised her with new China. It was white with a silver rim and a pink rose arched around the plate. She loved the pink rose. He knew her well.

Every time you introduce a new pink, I think of my mother. You have brought the memories of her back to me.  She has been gone 10 years and I miss her everyday but I’d forgotten how “pink” she was. Her beautiful name was Beatrice and her friends called her Bea. When your 12 pinks arrive, I’m going to privately refer to them as “Bea’s Pinks” because I know that every time I open them I’ll think of her and the beautiful woman she was.

I’m grateful.

So I reached out to Paulette and asked if I could please name this pinkafter her mother, she replied: 

… Thank you for this special way to remember her. In my original note to you I forgot to mention that she chose a pink wedding dress over a white one.  She was all-in pink!
