Two more

Here are two more from my cup and saucer collection (I promise...there is only one more post to come!).  

This one is another that is labeled 'Castle...
Hand Painted Japan'
It is also highlighted with
mother of pearl.


This cup was one that I received 
in a gift exchange when I was in public school.
It's the ONLY one in my pitifully small
collection that actually belongs to me and
wasn't inherited.  
It is labeled 'Royal Standard - Fine Bone
China - England'




Another anonymous quote for you today..."If you don't like something, just take away its only power:  your attention"

  3. That race track looks very cool. I painted one on a board for my kids when they were young. Hours of fun. I feel we need to see pictures of your children's amazing rooms!

  4. The teacup series is my favorite to date. I love them, and do drink from cups. Currently Chinese porcelain which come with a lid, not a saucer. Tea tastes better from the right cup. Do you have a collection of teapots?

  6. Your teacups are so sweet and lovely. Blue and White are my forever favorites however each of your treasured teacups are quite beautiful. You always share the best links and I always get a smile from many of them. Amigurumis absolutely make me smile. I wish my crocheting allowed me to create such adorables. Happy Weekend Ahead...<3
