Hello friends, It's mid-afternoon and I am so-enjoying my life on a Friday afternoon. It's payday again.... I do thank God for his goodness! So, I paid a few morning bills, processed papers for my supervisors.....
I recently changed to early work hours of 7:00am to 4:00pm. WONDERFUL! Soon, it will be time to unplug my teakettle. Rinse the cups, turn off the cd player and scented dishes.
My heart and mind yearns on a Friday. For an Estate or Garage Sale set of tea cups! I stopped by N. Council Rd. Place mats were $0.50 each...... starched, clean, lacy white placemats. Eight (8) of them.
Nice lady chatted that she's given into retirement (not cooking much/no parties??). Fresh linen....naturally calls for a tea party! I told here such pretty placemats.... "ARE YOU SELLING A FEW TEACUPS?" She laughed and shook her head in a "NO!"
Joyfully - I pd the few bucks.... also for a plastic set of eight (8)!!

So, my afternoon is here. I close the door, make my table setting across from the computer.....
This is the day.... the Lord hath made.... and I am able to rejoice and "BE GLAD IN IT!"
Just below the last picture, I always check E-Bay for the age, description and price of my Garage Sale Purchase/Tea Cups!

I love Tuscan HANDPAINTED teacups. I think they are so much more unique than decals and older of course. Yours looks like the l930's - 40's to me. Your placemats are lovely. So glad you shared at Tea In The Garden!
ReplyDeleteHi Beverly,
ReplyDeleteYour Battenburg lace place mats are gorgeous! A great bargain you got too. Thanks for sharing and joining me for tea. Have a lovely week.
