WHAT I FOUND OVER THE WEEKEND

Hello and thanks for visiting me today, I had to share this very unique item that I found this weekend. I found it at the Potatoe Barn Antique Store in West Branch, MI. I have never seen anything like it. It is all made of antique brass, it is an egg holder and it has a wish bone attached. I love wish bones, to me they are a sign of good luck. I picked it up and then put it down, but I just had to buy it, mostly for the fact it is so unique and I love how ornate it is. The only problem is I can't find an egg that fits in it. Regular eggs are too big and I have some quail eggs and they are too small, so now I am on a search for eggs. I also had some fake eggs and they are either too big or too small. I guess I am going to have fun egg hunting. Thanks for visiting me today and I hope everyone is having a great week. Hugs, Terri

TEA CUP TUESDAY

Hello, and thank you for visiting me for Tea Cup Tuesday, boy I don't know where the last week has gone, it has been a busy week, we got our son back to college and the weather has been so hot here, you would think that it is July. The tea cup that I am sharing this week is the last one that I purchased at the Antique Yard Sale Trail. It is a very delicate cup and I love the forget me not flowers on it. There is no name on the bottom of the cup just the number 1723, the lady that I purchased it from, thought it was made in Bavaria. I love the gold trim and the blue, pink and green on the cup.

Thank you Martha and Terri for hosting Tea Cup Tuesday, I have really enjoyed being a part of it. Have a wonderful week. Hugs, Terri

TEA CUP TUESDAY

Thank you so much for joining me for Tea Cup Tuesday. Here is another tea cup that I purchased last week. This tea cup is very different than any tea cups that I own. I believe that the flower on the tea cup is a fushia plant, which I really love and I also love is the shape of the tea cup. The bottom of the tea cup states that it is a Royal Albert, one of my favorite makers of tea cups and the name is Chaucer and the date is 1983, which is one reason I purchased it, it was the year that my first child was born.
