My Goodness it's Teacup Tuesday!

Greetings to all the Teacup lovers visiting for another Teacup Tuesday! Give a big round of applause for MARTHA and TERRI for hosting this grand weekly Tea party! Click on either of their names to be wisked off to see more :-)

Today I'm sharing a dainty, totally feminine cup and saucer with a sweet simple charm.
And borrowing some of Martha's creativity, pairing it with a fabulous vintage rhinestone pin! This one belonged to my Grandma Blanche and is huge and pink!

The pattern here has delicate pink roses in swirly wreaths of greenery and its hard to see but there is a raised design in the porcelain.
The simple mark is a bit faded and off center ~ MADE IN GERMANY. Isn't this a sweet handle!

Thank you for your visit today and before you run off please check out my 2nd free GIVEAWAY that started Sunday! I would love to meet you!!!

  8. Hi Lynn...Loved your little lady in the tea cup. Of course, the cup is pretty , too. You know what? It's similar to one I posted today! Then, I saw yours was made in Germany, thus the similarity. Take care. Oh! Loved the pin, too! Just my style and my favorite color. Sincerely, Susan

  16. Such a oh so sweet cup!! I love big tea cups--I am a fast drinker and perhaps I need to slow it down. I sometimes drink my tea in large coffee mugs.....bad! I know!
