tea break.
The antique teapot above is another one
of my treasures from an antique mall in
Wells Maine. It is very old and does have
some fine cracks in it but I love it anyway.

My, what a beautiful find - and to discover it was a good DEAL makes it even more special. It is perfect.
ReplyDeleteLove those cookies, your beautiful bouquet and that nifty "sweater" cup!
You didn't eat those cookies, you just went to the gym, right? No wonder I am fat, haha. You had it all backwards!

That is a lovely teapot! The whole vignette makes for a beautiful little break. I'd almost hate to eat the cookies though!
ReplyDeleteI must get some fresh flowers soon but it's too cold this week to bring them out from the store. Beautiful teapot! You sure got a good deal at the antique mall.

What a darling teapot, Carolyn, and the cup too is sweet. It looks cute sitting on the saucer with the stones in it. I very seldom use my rhinestone set. You know, there is something very cozy and charming about a well loved teapot or teacup for that matter. And someone sure knows how to bake adorable cookies! They are almost too beautiful to eat. Thanks for joining me for Tea Time and keep warm.

Love the red and white. Really like the design on the mug, it looks like a sweater. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI just love the red transferware! You make tea time look so cozy and inviting! Just one question - where do you store your vast array of dishes?
ReplyDeleteHello Carolyn. So beautiful as always. Your home is like a dream world. I hope 2015 is a wonderful year for you
ReplyDeleteLove everything! Wondering who the manufacturer is of your darling "cable knit" cup/saucer? I'm also smitten with your mitten cookies and embroidered sheep in star ornament, too!
ReplyDeleteI was born in Staffordshire, and most of my female ancestors were potters. So, I love all china. These pictures are wonderful. Thank you for sharing
