Tea Cup Tuesday

A few months ago, I discovered this lovely blog event called Tea Cup Tuesday. I've been meaning to participate for awhile as I have a small collection of tea cups.

I inherited the majority of my tea cups from my grandmother. My grandmother had a huge collection. She used to buy them at yard sales and people were always gifting them to her as well. I remember yard saling with her and my mom, when I was about 9, 10, 12 years old. Of course, at the time I thought it was the most boring way to spend a Saturday. When she passed, the collection was divided equally between her two sons. Then "our half" was divided among my two sisters and I.

Here is the first tea cup and saucer I'd like to share with everyone. I love the blue sky and mountain scene. To see the tea cup and saucer up close, please click on the picture.


I love how the mountains swoop down to this body of water.


Here is the reverse side of the tea cup. I love these pink flowers.


This pair was made by Royal Albert and is from the "Traditional British Songs Series of Six" line. I only have this one in the series, Bonnie Banks O'Loch Lomon, but I'd love to have the Men of Harlech design. To see the different patterns in the series, you can click here.

Thanks for popping in :)
