I saw this beautiful little rose bud just waiting to be picked... it is a pretty peach colour so I had to shop the house to find china with the right tonings to match.
I have many teapots but not one to match this pretty colour so I have used my silver teaset I received for my 21st birthday (just a few years ago LOL!). The milk jug looks to be scratched but it is just a little frosty from the cold milk.
I love to use different cups when I create a table so I found this pretty peach toned one then I matched it to a lovely rosebud one.
The little teaspoons with the crystal on the end came from a cute giftware shop in Perth a couple of months ago - they were $3 each so I don't think they are really silver or crystal!!!
No cuppa is complete without somehing yummy to eat - shortbread should hit the spot!!
Once again I didn't have napkins that looked just right so I resorted to raiding my quilting cupboard and found this pretty piece of fabric I cut up - I just tucked a crocheted doiley inside to soften the look a little.
Hope you stop by for a cuppa!!

Gorgeous linens, especially your "napkins." Love those two gorgeous teacups, too! Wow! How unique to set up your tea on the sewing machine cabinet - do you actually use the machine to sew? Pretty, pretty setting!
ReplyDeleteOh, what a pretty setting! I love your tea things and I have my grandmother's sewing machine and it looks almost just like yours.

What a GORGEOUS tea you have set. I may have to *borrow* the idea of using the sewing machine top as your tablescape. Mine sits in my entry way :)
