Season's Greetings Sweet Tea Friends!
Do you have any December birthdays in your family?
This week we celebrated my hubby's birthday and last week it was my daughter's.
Hubby requested Mikasa's April Rose as the dinner set of his choice for his family party.
This pattern has a soft pink single rose with greenery on a white background with embossed trim .
It is such a challenge to find discontinued teapots but after years of searching I eventually found the teapot and many other pieces at "Champagne Taste" ~ a consignment store in New Westminster, B.C.
(Sorry about the dark pics as I took them very late in the day).
(After years of collecting I now have over 25 place settings in Mikasa's April Rose.)
My precious grand daughter and grandson enjoyed taking part in the celebration! My grand daughter later decided to dress up like Belle from Beauty and the Beast. (As a Nana it's essential to have a supply of princess dresses. Lol.!)
This year I followed my tradition and set up the Christmas tree with white beads, pink, gold and crystal decorations and some orphaned teacups, of course.
My grand daughter made my hubby and I the sweet crafty Christmas tree ornaments with the googly eyes.
The little Christmas Village is arranged on the sideboard in the dining room.
Some Royal Albert Poinsettia china in the kitchen
And a small pink tree in the kitchen hallway.
I have a few more gifts to purchase but I suppose I'm nearly ready for Christmas.
What about you?
Is your list nearly complete?
