Pinkorama: the Vote!
Here it is, the moment we’ve all been waiting for… the Pinkorama vote! With seven strong candidates, which will take home the prize? In the order in which they arrived in my inbox, here are the Pink Carnation peep dioaramas: 1. “Ivy & Peeptrigue” by Jean. (For more details, click here.) 2. “The Mispeep of…

Otherwise known as “Peck, my peeps! Peck!” In this flashback to The Deception of the Emerald Ring, brought to us by Kate, Christine, Jess, and Yao, it’s 2003 and Eloise is hard at work at her favorite desk in the British Library reading room. (Check out her tiny laptop!) Meanwhile, back in 1803, Miss Gwen…

Penelopeep dives into the Krishna River to rescue Freddy’s groom in this scene from The Betrayal of the Blood Lily, recreated by Christine. Typical Pen– she just dives right in! On the shore, the onlookers panic. (Check out the scenic view from the Krishna in the background!) Meanwhile, back on the raft, Alex throws a…

An homage to The Masque of the Black Tulip! From Shenandoah, we have the dramatic capture of the Marquise de Montpeep. Lord Vaughn is the blue peep in the silver cravat. Turnip is styling a pink cravat (probably with carnations on it), while Miles and Henrietta are the yellow peeps exchanging soulful glances. The Marquise…

We have another Mispeep of the Mistletoe! In this rendition, by Sarah, Turnip looks on through the window as an agitated Miss Climpson informs Lizzy that, “We do not sit on people!” Sally appears to have fallen over the chair again. Next to the pageant, this is one of my favorite Mistletoe scenes. So, just…

Candace and Cassandra present… “Peepmas at Girdings”. I love that this combines both The Temptation of the Night Jasmine and The Mischief of the Mistletoe. As the house party at Girdings goes out into the woods to collect the Yuletide greenery on Christmas Eve, we can find Charlotte, in her red cloak, and Penelope, with…

This just in: “The Mispeep of the Mistletoe” by Kayse. Clarissa’s history paper scatters across the floor as Turnip flees out the window– without, of course, disarranging his incredibly natty cravat. More Pinkorama coming soon!

It’s time to brush up your diorama skills and brush off your Peeps. Yes, it’s the Pinkorama! Inspired by the Washington Post and ABA Journal Peep-oramas, I challenge all Pink fans to construct their own Pink Peep (say that three times fast!) dioramas. For those who need inspiration, a generous soul has donated a couple…
Read MoreNew Prize for Pinkorama!
I know, I know, I said the winner would get a Pink mug– and the runners up still will– but I now have a far, far cooler prize to offer to the grand prize winner: handmade one-of-a-kind Pink wine glass charms, courtesy of the incredibly talented and generous Sharin, proprietress of The Big Blue Bead.…
