Tea Time Tuesday ~ Found Treasures

Yay, I am finally back to blogging!
I have missed being a part of this fun
Tuesday event.  Please visit my sweet friend
 our weekly Tea Time fun!

Today I am sharing a collection of
*Tea for One*.  These sweet sets
 have all been given to me and I cherish each
one and their givers!



First up is a deep red set, a birthday gift many
years ago from a friend which fits so well into my
English/French Cottage themed kitchen.
With this sweet set, I have shown a Large Cup
that my darling daughter bestowed upon me last
year for my birthday...I do have Roosters all
over and she knew just what her momma would love!


This lovely mug has had many cups of tea and coffee in it
since it was given to me.

Another more delicate but equally beautiful set
was given to me recently by a dear friends.
It fits well into my bone china goodies doncha think?



Pretty huh?

Then there are two others that I have out right
now on my mantle for display.  They both
are so unique in there own way and also
special because they were given to me by
sweet peeps in my life.

Oh bloggy friends have I gots some amazing finds
 from my treasure hunting to share with you
today. 



Have you ever seen a vintage handpainted tray in this shape?
I have not.  And guess how much I paid for this treasure?
$1.99!!!

Then I found this sweet pillow for...$0.99!!!
Saw 2 other pillows that I am kicking myself over
not getting...hmmm I'm feeling another
trip to my favorite treasure store coming on.

Thanks so much for stopping by and
I do enjoy reading your comments and
visiting with each of you!

Oh, Lorena, I LOVE your pretty tea-for-one sets! I have several myself and they really do come in handy! Love the rooster mug your daughter gave you and the toile pillow has me swooning! I am so in love with toile, I can hardly stand it! I sure wish I could sew! Love all your tea things and your sweet treasures. Thank you, sweet lady, for joining me once again for Tea Time. It's really nice to have you back! Hope you have a lovely week.

Blessings & hugs,
Sandi

Your tea for one sets are so nice; I've not seen such elegant ones before.
Bring your big rooster mug over to LC and join me for tea with the big mug I'm using today.

Hi Lorena! You have some very pretty things to share today!! Love all your teapots, and I collect roosters, so I think my visit here was an extra special treat!! It's funny both of us are wishing we bought more of the items than we did, in today's posts! You wished you bought all the pillows and I wished I bought all the cups and saucers!! I certainly hope this teaches us a lesson!! (0; Hope you're enjoying a lovely afternoon! ~tina
