Tea on Tuesday

As I sit here awaiting the arrival of my mini donkey, I remembered I had to post for tea!! So, I am preposting this on Monday night (sshhhh!), because if little Yoshi arrives on time - I will be very busy on Tuesday!! Fingers crossed!!!

So, if you will forgive me for taking the easy way out - I will again post some shots from Tumblr- all tea related- Tumblr is an endless source of amazement and inspiration for me! (For photo credits, please visit Tumblr)

 

Pottery, teacups and cubbies galore!! I love it!!!!

     A Harry Potter-esque artist creation- not sure I could actually drink tea coming out of this!!!!!!

 

But, I definitely could take tea from this gorgeous hibiscus teapot!!!!

Below, a collection from one of my all time favorite pottery designers- Clarice Cliff- I want them all!!

And for the inner upper crust in all of us-

Faberge

Please drop by for tea any Tuesday - see Patty and Kim for a list of other tea fanciers!!

Tea onTuesday

Well, today's Tea on Tuesday is a veritable mishmash of different stuff- which loosely translated, means I had no clue what to write about today!!!!

Happy February all !!! Can you believe that Valentine's Day is a mere 13 days away!!! Where did January go!!!

The above pic is of a cool mouse pad/calendar that my daughter found for 50 cents at Michael's!!Each calendar month features a different cup - they are all really coffee - but the cups are very cute, regardless!!!

Below, is my tea today - a chamomile citrus, sent to me by Peggy, over at Passions of an Odd Chick- thank you, thank you!!! Very delicious!!!

This tea is going in an "orphan" thrift shop teacup-Aynsley bone china- it's really quite pretty - the photo doesn't do it justice at all!

I really need to stop rescuing cups that are saucer-less. I am running out of room!!!

Below is a new favorite antique shop find - I am not sure if it was meant to be a baby quilt, or was just made as a lap quilt. It is of vintage flour/feed sacks for the most part. I love it!! It was a little more than I usually spend - but at $10, it was still cheaper than it would have cost me to buy a couple of individual vintage feed sacks!!!

I am starting to amass a collection of locally made, and what I call "character", quilts. They are all pretty darn unattractive, but have alot of character!!!Despite their outward appearance, they are serviceable and very warm! And, they all took someone a long time to make.

The white flowered print on the right is my favorite - almost a seersucker type fabric.

 The reverse really is unattractive, and totally keeping with the theme of my collection!!LOL

Please feel free to join us every and any Tuesday for tea!
