Tea Cup Tuesday!


I have a couple of pretty tea cups to share today that belonged to my mother.  She had such a beautiful collection.  The first one is Stratford Elizabethan made in England. 











My second cup by Adderley is such a pretty lavender with a lacy gold trim.  It's simple but so pretty I think.  The Madame Alexander doll belonged to my mother too.











Thanks for stopping by today.  Thank you to Martha & Terri for hosting Tea Cup Tuesday!

  4. Thanks for visiting. I kinda scrolled through your sidebar...I see you live in Roseville Ca. I was raised in Roseville MI. Your son's are deputies...my hubs is in law enforcement. We have been married 37 years! You sure did show some beautiful tea cups. I don't have any of my mom's but I have added some of my own over the years. Have a great day.

  11. Hi Ms Denise!
    You always have the prettiest teacups! I really must get some more blue ones! Yours is especially gorgeous!
    And the lavender one is the sweetest shade of violet and I love the simplicity of the design.
    Your displays are always beautiful too and the painted tray is beautiful :-)
    Happy teacup tuesday on wednesday my bud!
