Tea Cup Tuesday-Restorative Tea


Hello All!
Welcome to Tea Cup Tuesday!
Yay!

Is it me, or are the Tuesdays flying by?
These past 7 days, I have been locked in my turret...
working away on lovely little videos for my newest class,
See my funny little window studio?


I am shooting some of the segments in front of the window
so that I can use the natural light. 
With jewelry classes, I want  the natural stones and beads
to be close to their true color.
All is going well, between many storm clouds and bright sun,
it is getting done.  One more day.
Then 4 days of editing....
Then it is all sent off to Gail (wonderful, magnificent Gail!)
at Creative Workshops, who sets it all up.
I am excited for the class to open! 
Yay!

During these long days of video taping, tea has been my secret elixir, lol!
Sharon of Livewire Jewelry, a really sweet friend,
Sent me some tea recently, and I have been enjoying it.
Thank you Sharon! You were just in time!


 I found this sweet little vintage cup in Asheville a few weeks ago. 
I always love yellow and pink roses together.


The pastel flowers have a delicate mistiness to them.


 This tea cup was produced by Regency, a company that began in 1953,
in Staffordshire Potteries, in Longton England.
This cup may be as old as me!


A restorative cup of tea has been just what I have needed!
Yay for tea!

Thank you so much for stopping by. 
As soon as I am done with my class preparation, 
I shall be out again visiting all of you that I can.
I appreciate all your visits,
And I love reading your comments.

Martha is very thankful for all your prayers and healing thoughts.
 ...let's keep sending her the LOVE.

If you would like to join in T.T. just create a post with your tea cup in it and come back here and link that specific post below....

Hugs,
Terri

  4. Oh Terri, I hope I get a chance to see that movie. :) I'm trying to find a silversmithing class to take. It's a tough class to find. Love the little rosy cup. I have a bunch and call them my URCs (ubiquitous rosy cups), probably not being fair to them. I'll go have another good look at them all. Thank you so much for hosting; Chloe and I are having so much fun with these posts. Hugs to you.

  8. You are so talented. I can't imagine all that is involved in producing your videos, but they are beautifully done and such clearly understood tutorials.

    The teacup is simple and elegant. Restorative tea in a beautiful teacup is a blessing when you're working long hours.

  9. Lovely tea cup, but I don't know what I love more... the tea cup or those gorgeous Violets with their happy faces? So I think I just love them both!

    Love,
    B.

  11. Hi Terri,
    I see you've been busy creating beautiful pieces of jewelry and learning more about it!
    But this teacup is also a gem, with that combination of pink and yellow in the roses!
    Well, but the first thing to strike me was the lovely flower pot you made using the cup with the daisies inside.
    Striking images, as always...
    Thanks for hosting.
    Happy Easter, dear Terri!

  14. Hi Terri,
    that sounds really exiting. You are so ingenious with your video installation. I am curious what you will show. Your little te vignette with the cute tea cup and the pansy inside looks very springy. Tea is always the right elixir. Thank you for sharing this sweet tea time and for hosting this event. My thought are going to Martha, too. Hope, all will work out good.
    Best greetings, Johanna

  17. Hi Terri! It's a lovely cup and I also love pink and yellow flowers together. I always especially love reading your descriptions of them. Besides your crafting talents, you are also such a good writer. Your course seems interesting. Good luck with it. One day, I would love to take one of your courses. Just something simple would do.

  18. You are certainly a busy lady! The jewelry classes sound wonderful. Your tea time is a energizer to be creative. The special Regency cup and saucer was a beautiful find in Ashville. Hope your classes are fun and know you are looking forward to their beginning after all your work!

  30. You've been a busy lady Terri, and I'm glad you find time for tea to relax a bit.
    Working in front of the window in natural light would be something I'd like, I craft in the basement.
