Tea Cup Tuesday









Hello, thank you so much for visiting me today, this Tea Cup Tuesday, I would love to share a beautiful tea cup from a very special friend of mine. Her name is Debi, of life in my studio I have been a fan of her beautiful blog and was so thrilled when she joined the Marie Antoinette Mail Art Group. She is just the sweetest person and I feel like she is my sister, we love the same things and it's almost like we can read each others minds. We decided to have a tea cup swap with each other. I always get so excited to get mail from Debi, it is always wrapped so beautifully and I know that I am going to love whatever she sends to me. This is the beautiful tea cup that Debi gave me, I love the beautiful soft blue and all the beautiful roses, it is so lovely. It is a Royal Stafford, made in England. Then she sent me this beautiful apron that she made, it is the prettiest apron that I have ever seen. I love the pink french material and all the lovely details, it is so special. She also sent me a silver spoon, these wonderful flamingo's, how did she know that I have been wanting some of these. She is really amazing. Thank you so much Debi, I love everything that you sent me and I will treasure your beautiful tea cup and apron and think of you whenever I use your beautiful tea cup.

Below is what I sent my sweet friend Debi. About a month ago, just out of the blue, she sent me a beautiful tea cup, I loved it so that I wanted her to have one just like the one she sent me, so I purchased a sister tea cup which is the first one I am showing, then I found the other tea cup and it just looked like her style. I made her a tea cup wall hanging and also a charlotte angel. I found out later that she collects angels and she found out that I collect aprons, like I said it's like we can read each others minds. I had such a fun time creating things for Debi. Thank you Debi for such a fun and wonderful swap. She is just the best.

Hugs, Terri

Tea Cup Swap








I hosted a Tea Cup Swap on the Marie Antoinette Mail Art Group. My partner was the lovely Terri Heinz. This is the tea cup that I sent her and a couple of gifts along with my favorite teas. I made her a charlotte doll and also a tea cup wall hanging.

Below is the beautiful tea cup that Terri H. sent me. It was wonderful we both mail our packages on the same day so we both received them at the same time. I love the beautiful cup she sent me it is french and I love the green and pink with all the beautiful roses and gold. She also sent me some beautiful trims and her favorite teas. I can't wait to try them. She also sent me this beautiful domino book that I had been admiring on her blog. This was my favorite and this is the one she sent me. I love the aqua color. Thank you so much Terri, I love everything. This has been a wonderful swap. Thank you so much for visiting me today and I hope you have a wonderful Good Friday! Hugs, Terri

Melanie's Beautiful Egg I Received!







In our Marie Antoinette Mail Art Group, the wonderful and lovely Melanie, who is so generous had a Easter egg drawing in the group. She made three beautiful eggs, a pink one, a blue one and a purple one. I was the lucky first winner, I picked the pink one, it was really hard to choose, they were all so beautiful. I was so thrilled to receive one of her beautiful eggs. Well it came on Monday and when I opened the box the egg seemed very heavy, when I opened the egg, she had made this beautiful bracelet. The egg was such a wonderful gift, but then to also have a beautiful bracelet, oh Melanie you really made my week. I love the sweet lamp work cup cake beads. It is so beautiful. I will treasure your beautiful egg and your beautiful bracelet. I will think of you every time I wear it. Thank you Melanie, she has a wonderful blog, please visit her at http://www.artfulinterludes.blogspot.com/ I hope you are having a wonderful week. Hugs, Terri

Tea Cup Tuesday






Hello, thank you for visiting me today, the cup that I would like to share with you is a cup that I have had a couple of years, I purchased this cup while visiting my son in Washington state. My favorite tea cups have roses, but I love this cup, I love all the different flowers and colors of the flowers, it reminds me of spring, which we are longing for so badly, as it is snowing again today. The tea cup is a Staffordshire and I believe the name is Englands Bouquet, I love the gold trim and also the shape and design of the cup. I want to thank Terri and Martha for hosting Tea Cup Tuesday and please click on the tea cup on my side bar and visit all the beautiful tea cups. Have a wonderful Tuesday. Hugs, Terri
