As Christmas is rapidly approaching it
is good to take a few peaceful moments
to reflect on the real reason we celebrate
Christmas and to remember how richly
we have been blessed.
Today's afternoon Christmas tea is served in my new to
me teapot. I love the shape and the unusual color of this old
transferware teapot that I bought in an antique mall in Wells
Maine on our holiday last week.
This transferware teacup was a fluke find in another
shop and is almost the perfect match for the teapot.
Teatime today is being served in
the Christmas Cottage.

A sweet pair of boots.
Sugar cookies are one of my favorites
with a cup of tea.
I just recently watched the movie~

Very pretty, Carolyn. The teapot and cup and saucer are sweet. I have the book but haven't seen the movie. I've been re-reading Karen Kingsbury's Red Gloves Series this month. Maybe I'll read The Christmas Blessing again too! Have a wonderful Christmas. Pam
Oh your photos are always so soothing and relaxing. I love your new teapot. It is a gorgeous piece and you have created the perfect setting to enjoy a cup of tea. I also love your Christmas cottage. I would love to spend and afternoon in such a peaceful space.
Have a lovely week,

Your Christmas decor looks lovely and I love the wee painted horse. I am still putting up my decorations. I have just finished re-decorating my bedroom and hope to post it next week. Your room is so feminine and pretty. I have chosen to go a little more feminine too.
Have a lovely Christmas.

Everything is so gorgeous, Carolyn. Thank you for sharing so much creativity and beauty. I've had an incredibly busy holiday season but still managed a peek throughout it at all the incredible spaces you have been creating. I appreciate them all. Wishing you and your family all the joys of the season. Thank you for a year of dreams and loveliness.
A whole blog post full of eye candy, lovely & peaceful eye candy !
Your teapot & teacup are perfect for the season and do look as if they were made for each other.
A beautiful setting for your tea, Carolyn! What a gorgeous teapot - love the colors and the shape of it. I've got that same tray! : ) I have not read the book or seen the movie. There seem to be so many on the two Hallmark channels I have, I don't know what to watch.
What a lovely grouping for your Christmas themed tea tray!
