New Tea Things


 New tea things make me happy.  When we went looking at fall foliage the day after my birthday, I found these pretties.


 I really like the poppies and the color!




The shape of the sugar bowl is so pretty, too.  I was sad that there was no creamer left, but decided to get the sugar bowl anyway because of the beautiful shape.

I'll be putting these lovelies to good use on the first of December when our church has our ladies tea.  I am so looking forward to it.

Joining the fun at the following Tea Gatherings!

That is a unique and pretty shape on the sugar bowl, presumably the creamer matches. You'll find one some day when you least expect to! Oh the tes is coming up...I always love to see how you decorate each year. Your new tea things will be perfect!

I just finished my tea post for the weekly gatherings and used my red poppy teacup. It's similar in shape to yours but a different pattern. The sugar dish is nice too, I hope you find a creamer to match, maybe even a teapot? One can always hope. :-)

Very pretty!

I think it is Susan Branch who collects only creamers to use for flowers.

Hmmm... could this be the start of a sugar bowl collection. ;)

A beautiful pattern of china. And most apropos for the season as tomorrow is Remembrance Day here in Canada, when we honour those who have given their lives for freedom. The wearing of a lapel poppy is seen everywhere.

Hi Deanna,
I love your poppy teacup and sugar bowl. I have a sugar bowl in that exact shape only in a toile pattern. With Remembrance Day and Veterans Day tomorrow your poppies are perfect. Thanks for sharing with us and joining me for tea.
