Tea Time Thursday #103


Happy Tea Time Thursday! Oh, it is the most wonderful spring day here in the Pacific Northwest! It is a bit windy, but the temps are in the 60's today! I guess that is why I am thinking PINK today for my post. Spring is in the air.


I adore Shelley tea cups and china. I think it is so romantic and dainty and just pretty. Jimmy loves it and when he is out scouting, he always has his eyes open for a Shelley. He was lucky to find a trio. I get to "borrow" the set for awhile as it is slated for his upcoming show. Isn't it just soooo pretty?
Soft pink flowers with a touch of soft pink trim...ahhhh.


The name of this pattern is Bridal Rose. Such a perfect name. How lovely would this be if you had a set for a sweet bridal shower? Swoon.....


Soft pink trim with tiny pink roses inside the cup too...my favorite!


My dear friend Ann gave this tea time pin to me years ago as a gift. I think it was a birthday present. The pink roses with a touch of green makes for the perfect paring with the Shelley.


This is a tiny covered box that my sister Alisa gifted me years ago too. I keep it out in my tea room, under a little dome glass cover. It is a favorite of mine too.


It opens for tiny treasures. I actually found something I had tucked away inside that I was looking for the other day! FUNNY! It will probably appear on another post someday.


So think pink and spring and roses and flowers.....it's coming soon, I promise!



It's also time for another tea cup or mug exchange with my dear friend Stephanie at THE ENCHANTING ROSE. It is open to anyone who wishes to play! I have done all 8 of them and it is just so much fun. Do pop over and read some testimonials that she has posted today. I hope you choose to have some fun.

I am also linking up to Sandi at ROSE CHINTZ COTTAGE. Sh has a lovely NO PLACE LIKE HOME party each week. It's actually starts on Mondays, but I like up on Thursday after my Tea Time Thursday post.

Enjoy!

Tea Time Thursday #20


Happy Tea Time Thursday! Summer is moving right along and the weather has cooled down a bit, so I am happier. I am still coughing just a bit but I am finally just about over this bug. Yeah!

I love Shelley tea cups. Until recently, I didn't have one in my tea cup collection. We were at a sale and Jimmy made a deal with the lady and we brought home a few. They are so beautiful and I love the scalloped cup.


Lovely tea cup ladies in their very finest!


Tiny pink rosebuds with a soft green handle.


Sprays of dainty flowers with a soft pink handle.



 Very hard to pick a favorite.

We are lucky to have many ethnic markets in the Portland area. Jimmy and I like to visit a Russian market that has the best candies, teas and tea time goodies. The owners are so fun and always give us something to try or enjoy. I love all their different teas. This is a loose leaf fruit tea from Poland. I think it will make a great iced tea for summer.


We watched a very beautiful movie the other night....Howards End. I don't know how I missed this one, but I'm so glad I finally got to watch and enjoy it. The costumes are exquisite and the photography is stunning. It's based on a 1910 novel by E M Forester.


Some of my favorite actors and actresses makes for a great film. The documentary was also really interesting.




This is a real home that was used in the movie....this is Howard End. The home plays a big part in the movie. It just looks like a Peter Rabbit house to me.

Just makes you want a cuppa!
