Tea time -Oct 22

Last Saturday we stopped by a favorite thrift store, which happened to have a sale on almost eveything. I had something in mind, but couldn't find it...however, I just had to browse through the crystal and came home with some lovely sherbert dishes and candleholders. What better way to break them in than a little tea time today!
 We will have some apple pudding with our tea.
Both the candleholders and the stemware are in the cornflower pattern. I am rather fond of that particular pattern, since I received several pieces as wedding gifts.


The teacups are Royal Wochester "Gold Chantilly".

Sandi is hosting her wonderful Tea Time Tuesday, so please visit her and leave a comment . Enjoy!

Victoria…and Me

To see larger photos, click to enlarge.. The May-June 2009 Victoria magazine is one of my favorites, featuring blue and white... one of the open pages with an article on linens...it just happens that I have one of the patterns... There is also a feature on blue and white Wedgewood ... I have photographed some of my pieces alongside the article... ....here is my interpretation of blue and white... As a nod to the current issue of Victoria, which features some tea tables in green, I have  set out my own little tea table, with some scones... ...or perhaps you'd like to help yourself to a chocolate-cherry morsel?
