Tea Cup Tuesday-Celebrate the Season

 Hello All!

Welcome to Tea Cup Tuesday!

December is well on her way,

We've had some chilly weather,

and some good tea this  month : )

As many of you do,

I find it a joy to use special dishes during the  holidays. 

This wonderful thistle pattern set

I found while out thrifting with my mother in law, 

who also loves to find treasures : )

Thistle patterns can be so pretty!

This coloring here reminds me of the subtle 

colors of winter.

My tea today is a mix of herbs, 

Peppermint, rose buds, lavender, 

chamomile, lemon verbena... and more.

It is a lovely mix from Tin Roof Teas
called Rip Van Winkle.

Simple handle with a single silver detail.

The background is a nice creamy white coloring.

The salad plates are oval shaped, 

which I really do love about them.  

The backstamp lets us know this is a
Johnson Brother's tea cup.
This company has created beautiful
earthenware in many well loved patterns.
