And to visit Sandi of Rose Chintz Cottage for TEA TIME TUESDAY, please click HERE
Please visit the participants of these 2 great Tea parties to see all of the lovely things that they have to offer for our delight!
I have posted a lot of photos so I will try to be brief.
Below is a Tea Cup Shelf that I had in storage for several years until I had the room to put it in. It now lives in my new Guest Room.
These are just some of my Tea Cup Collection.
This is a little Tea Party Vignette that I have set up in front of my Faux Fireplace in my Guest Room.
I placed a mirror window in the fire box section.
The wicker set was a flea market find for $4.00.
The Teddies were bought in 2 different stores for me by my Hubby. And the tiara's that they are wearing were bought at 90% off at the Christmas Tree Shop for 14 cents each!!
This cute mini Tea Set was a gift from a dear friend who helps me with the various fund raisers that I am involved in at our church. I LOVE it!!
A battenburg lace doily is my "tablecloth" for my tea table.
The cute Bear Plate is a Thrift Store find for $2.00!!
I placed a lamp inside to light it up at night. The lamp was $3.00 at the Christmas Tree Shop.
My fake hearth is a shelf covered with peel and stick floor tiles.
This is a set of dishes that I bought at my Church Flea Market. I thought it was interesting and even though there was only a place setting for 2, I thought I could mix and match it with red transferware that I have and do a lovely Christmas tablescape for the holidays.
Close up of the dinner plates. It says "Old Curiosity Shop" on it. I thought it looked very Charles Dickens like.
Here is the salad or desert plate.
The cups and saucers
The small bowls
This is the marking on the dinner plates
I found it interesting that each type of dish has a different pattern on it.All these pieces cost me $3.00!!!
There were 3 serving pieces that I did not buy and now I could really kick myself for not doing so.
Thanks for stopping by today and every day that you take the time to visit me!!
Hugs,
Debbie

Oh, I'm drooling over the tea cups. Your little tea party with the bears is so cute! I'm lovin the green dishes, too.
Hello Deb, I'm still making my Pink Saturday visits. Thank you so much for stopping by and leaving a sweet comment. To answer your question, no I have not been real happy with some of the magazines lately. They have changed somewhat, not as Victorian as they used to be. My favorite is Country Victorian which they only do once a year now. Victoria is still good though, I really enjoy that one.
Your pink post is adorable, love the chair redo. Your Blue Monday is cute too and I love all your teacups on this post.
Have a great week!
Blessings, Shirl

Debbie, I just love the mini tea party vignette and the tea set is so precious! Beautiful green transferware, too!

Hi Debbie, I love all of your lovely things and the mini tea set is darling. However, I really LOVE the Old Curiosity Shop dishes. I want you to know that those dishes have been my everyday dishes for years. I have every piece there is except the cereal bowls. I guess they got broken more quickly than the others. I can't find them. I have place settings for 12 plus extras. I started collecting them 15 years ago. I adore the fact that all the pieces have a different design. On occasion I display them in my hutch. I am going to put them in there again soon because i have a plan to but fabric on the back of my hutch that compliments these dishes so well. I will be posting them. smile.
Have fun with your new (old) find.
Hugs, Jeanne
Oh my gosh!!! Those green dishes are so cool!

Hi Debbie,
Thanks for visiting me for my first Tea Time party and becoming a follower. You're right we do have the same teacup shelf unit - I see yours is a dark wood color while mine is a lighter wood color. I think I purchased mine at Service Merchandise (these stores have long ago closed) many years ago. I have no room left in mine for any more cups. All of your china is so pretty and I enjoyed viewing all of it.
Hugs,

Hi Debbie! It's always fun to take the time out to visit you! esp. on tea cup tuesday! I've joined in on the fun today too!
You're tea cup shelf is brilliant! I've never seen anything like that and I'm thinking one of those in white would serve me well. I don't have enough room in our new home for a china cabinet like I used to have, and my tea cups are hidden away shamefully in my kitchen cupboard! I must begin my search for one of these! It's pretty flat to the wall and can be hung just about anywhere!!!!!!
Brilliant! thanks for the inspiration...and the gorgeous post!
ciao bella
come by and see me too!

Just look at that doll size tea set, it is adorable! So very pretty.
And your green dishes are really interesting, I love the clock dish. I am sure it mixes well with red transfer ware. What a bargain at $3.00!!!
Thank you for sharing with us today!
Hugs,
Terri

Thanks so much for your visit to my blog for Tea Cup Tuesday. Your post is so lovely and I love the tiny pink set the best. Please have a wonderful rest of the week.
Oh now.. THAT'S how it's done right! Love your bears having tea! My camera refused to cooperate, no matter what setting it was set on, and no matter what amount of lighting! My dolls ended up looking like something straight out of a horror movie, today, don't you think?! (0; (sigh)... oh well. I love you tea cup shelf! Maybe because it looks very MUCH LIKE MINE! For now, I display both collected teacups and various salt-n-peppers, until one collection grows and eventually nudges out the other collection. Then, of course, I will need ANOTHER shelf!.. Love your new set of green dishes! So pretty, and you couldn't possibly argue with that price! What a sweet find! ((hugs)) ~tina
you got beautiful teacups collection and the mini ones are to die for!
Hi: I love how you share so many tea cups. It makes this day so fun when you get to see so many different cups. I would not expect anything less from you my over the top friend. Thank you for your prayers for me, I really do need them right now. Have a great week. Blessings to you always, Martha
