Teacup Tuesday

Well, it's not just teacups today.   My birthday is this week and the family came over on Sunday to help me celebrate. We had a great time together and I was given lovely gifts including these two adorable little jam pots with Lily of the Valley motif.


                Lovely teacups and a hand made card.  Do you have a favourite?


These two came from the thrift store that I made a quick trip to this morning.
The little bird cup is so pretty and the china so thin and delicate.



       I like white jugs or pitchers, if you prefer. This one with its touch of pink pleases me.


There will be more birthday teacups but I'll keep those for next week.

Thanks for visiting,


Granny M.

  2. You're going to need more shelving!! haha :) My favorite is the one with the little purple violets, although they are ALL very pretty and exquisite.

    Happy birthday to you, GM! I hope it's a grand week and a bold, happy new year for you.

  3. Oh what lovely jam pots! So delicate looking! That is something that I do not have and one would think with all of the jam that I make that I would have several. :-)

    I love that bird teacup! I noticed last week in one of your pictures that you had the top shelf of your display cupboard lined with white jugs. I have a friend who collects white ironstone ware pieces and she has some lovely jugs as well.

  8. A very thoughtful gift of teacups for a teacup collector! Very lovely. I think I have 2 if not 3 of the same teacups in my collection! Wishing you a very Happy Birthday week!

  9. It still amazes me that you find so many teacups. It's rare, for me anyways, to find a teacup and matching saucer. Must have something to do with there being so few hot tea drinkers here in the south. My favorites are the two on the right. The one with violets because mama loved violets, but the other one is really pretty...well so it that pink one! Guess I would pick all four. :) Hope you are having a happy birthday week.
