A Reflective Tea Time!

Welcome Teacup Lovers to

A Reflective Tea Time!

 

 

 The sun is smiling in through the window.

Today I have set our tea time beside our 36 year old French Provincial Loveseat.  I am reflecting about the past...... I went shopping with my mom and dad and chose this furniture.  How quickly the time passed. 

This furniture had been in my living room for many years until  I recently inherited my mother's antique settee.

For now this rosy, pink button back loveseat  has it's home in the Master Bedroom.
 

 

 

I wanted to share a fortunate find - this pearl white with gold gilt tea pot. As I reflect, it beautifully reflects the light and illuminates multi - colours deep within the finish of the china.  I can almost see my reflection. Do you see tones of pink and turquoise? 

 

 

I found the teapot for $5.99 at Salvation Army and the similar coloured cream and sugar were just $.99 cents each at Goodwill.

 

 

 

 One of the teacups I am sharing today is not a matched set. The cup is an Aynsley and the saucer is Royal Albert's Rainbow.

 

 

The pinks are identical.

 

 

 

I love the pretty pink rose with gold leaves on the inner cup.

 

 

 

The other matched teacup is a Paragon.
The inner cup also has a pink rose but is surrounded by colourful fruits.

 

 

 

I am welcoming the sunshine and I hoping for an early spring!

 

 

I hope that you can also take time today to reflect upon the past and look ahead to happy, sunny spring days!
