A Crinoline Lady Tea


Welcome My Dear Tea Friends to

"A Crinoline Lady Tea!"



As you know I have been on the search for Sadler teapots and was I overjoyed to find this little miniature Crinoline Lady Sadler at Value Village this week.

  




I brought it to the cottage because I thought that it would look pretty with 


my Antique Crinoline Lady Garden Series Colclough teacup  and .....


my Empire England Crinoline Lady
 cream and sugar there.



Do you ever wish that crinolines  would come back in style so that you  could wear such a lovely dress as these ladies are?








 




Thank you for stopping by the cottage for

"A Crinoline Lady Tea!"




See you again soon sweet tea friends!

Have a Wonderful Week!

Chintz for Tea Time


Hello China Lovers,

Today I would like to share my very small Chintz collection.



The newest being this Welbeck 1995 Royal Winton teapot.


Do you know where I found it?  Yes, you guessed it ...... Goodwill.


I fell in love with the pretty colours and roses. 










It will have a special home with some favourite teapot friends.


My dear friend Dawn recently gifted me with this precious Johnson Brother's coffee pot.

  


Such lovely pastel tones.







I have had this vintage "Rosalynde" James Kent teacup as long as I can remember.


I believe I got it at a Sunday Flea Market in Queen's Park Arenex when I was 16.

  My Mother, Sister and I would go after church every Sunday. 

That would mean that I have had it for nearly 44 years!!!  Yikes!


Like transferware, Chintz china seems to blend nicely together too.





This pretty  Colclough is a similar shape to the James Kent.












Some time ago I was pleased to find this Royal Winton Cream and sugar at Salvation Army for $2.99.






Thank you for stopping by for 
Chintz for Tea Time!



See you next week!

Karen
